The second stage of partnership covers 10 high-profile MMA events across Europe.

True to its name, inspired by Bruce Lee’s remarkable 1-inch punch, 1inch is eager to strengthen ties with the competitive and hard-hitting world of mixed martial arts (MMA). As another step in that direction, 1inch is excited to unveil the second stage of its partnership with major MMA promoter OKTAGON MMA, aimed at attracting Web2 audiences to 1inch products.

“MMA and 1inch share common values, such as adventurousness, striving for excellence, and the ability to withstand challenges,” says Sergej Kunz, 1inch co-founder. “The first stage of cooperation with OKTAGON MMA was successful, and we are thrilled to enter a new phase of our partnership.”

“With 1inch, we feel a strong alignment between the core values of our brands and we highly appreciate the fact that this partnership continues because it helps us fulfill our vision of becoming the Champions League of MMA in Europe,” comments Pavol Neruda, co-owner of OKTAGON MMA.

“This year, together with 1inch as one of our significant partners, we are going to create history by hosting two spectacular events in major football stadiums in Prague and Frankfurt, showcasing the immense growth and popularity of mixed martial arts,” he goes on to say. “Together with 1inch, we are looking forward to creating even more unforgettable experiences for our fans, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in the world of combat sports.”
