Takedown Entertainment Signs Agreement With Fight Night Entertainment
(firmenpresse) - LONDON -- (Marketwire) -- 08/17/11 -- Takedown Entertainment Inc.
() (OTCBB: TKDN), an authority in the business
of mixed martial arts, is pleased to announce that it has signed a Letter
of Intent to acquire worldwide distribution rights to past and future MMA
fights with Fight Night Entertainment, plus certain rights to the brand and
sponsorship representation.
Fight Night Entertainment (FNE) was established in 2008 in Washington State
as both an amateur and professional MMA promotion by Riad Youssef. The
organization started as a way to showcase fighters from the gym, West Coast
Fight Club, which was growing in membership and fight contenders. To date,
FNE has produced 16 events featuring former Ultimate Fighting Championship
(UFC) athletes Mario Miranda, Kit Cope and Strikeforce contender Ryan
Couture, son of UFC Hall of Famer Randy Couture. FNE is solidifying itself
as fundamental component of the growth of mixed martial arts in the Pacific
Northwest.
"The sport of MMA is the fastest growing sport surpassing professional
wrestling, boxing, and soccer," stated FNE President Riad Youssef. "MMA
started taking over as a universal sport from day one and we all knew that
this was only the beginning. We at FNE are continually working hard in
building our organization's brand, production and talent pool, and within
3-5 years FNE will also be one of the largest PPV [pay-per-view] MMA
promotions in the world. Since we've now partnered with Takedown, the
timing is perfect. Takedown's resources will help us execute our goals and
their expertise will ensure that our hard work pays off."
