    NBA great Stephen Curry gifts UFC Hall of Famer Khabib Nurmagomedov signed game jersey in Toronto

    Greatness recognizes greatness. While in Canada for appearances, UFC Hall of Famer Khabib Nurmagomedov took some time out of his schedule to take in an NBA game between the Golden State Warriors and the Toronto Raptors, and also meet one of the best shooters of all-time, Stephen Curry. “It’s different expereince to watch live one of the best NBA player in the world,” Nurmagomedov tweeted along with a picture of Curry on the court mid-game.

    How did the fight game engage with the Superbowl last weekend?  – Ash Sports Media

    Back with another blog post, and I’m loving it! This weekend saw one of the biggest sporting events take place, the SuperbowLVIII! The San Francisco 49ers didn’t quite cut the Kansas City Chiefs, as the end result was 25-22 in favour of the Chiefs.  I won’t lie- I don’t know too much about American football. However, I completely understand the scale of the Superbowl from a marketing perspective. Therefore, I’ve written this blog to do what I do best: support fighters, fight brands and promotions by getting their marketing strategies on point. Specifically, through this blog, I’ll be sharing transferable content marketing tactics that you can take away from other…

    NBA In-Season Tournament: Next Steps Ahead for Adam Silver

    In international basketball competitions outside North America, the point differential tiebreaker is standard. This isn’t the case for the NBA, which stirred up some confusion for players. Teams leveraged running up the score in late games. “I’m not ready necessarily to move away from it, but if ultimately there’s going to be a sense, particularly from our American fans, that somehow it is an indication of poor sportsmanship, that’s not a good idea for us to be doing it,” Silver said. Silver is reluctant to make any changes but has been aware of the implications it may pose for the fans. The NBA league office has discussed the addition of…
