UB.net, continuing their role as a major supporter of the burgeoning sport of mixed martial arts (MMA), recently announced a new exclusive sponsorship agreement with the Bellator Fighting Championships.

The Bellator Fighting Championships, "where fighters become warriors and warriors become legends," is a relatively new league of mixed martial arts fighters, which made significant headlines in the MMA world during their 2009 debut season.  This 12 successive week series, is aired nationally, not only on FSN, but also Telemundo and NBC. 

The new fully integrated partnership between Bellator and UB.net, will- according to a recent UB press release- provide UB.net with a "prominent presence," not only during the Bellator broadcasts, but also on-site, during all the 2010 promotional events.  Bellator, for its part in the partnership, will have a place on the UB.net website, sponsoring tournaments where players will be able to win all-expense paid packages to Bellator events.

"Last year, we watched from the sidelines as the new kid on the MMA block delivered some of the most explosive moments in televised fighting sports history," stated Paul Leggett, chief operations officer of Tokwiro, the owner/operator of UB.net.  "This year, we're elated to jump in the cage as an active player in the Bellator phenomenon, while exposing the UB brand to more than 250 million homes across the U.S."
