LOS ANGELES, Oct. 08, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Fight To Fame, the first blockchain-based sports entertainment platform paving new paths to fame for action superstars, today announces top Jiu-Jitsu fighter and mixed martial artist Rigan Machado has joined the team as Champion Ambassador.

Machado is the latest champion attached to the project, alongside African Champion Ambassador Chris Van Heerden, and Roy Jones Jr., with several additional champions from around the world to be announced. To add to the excitement, the innovative entertainment platform is partnering with a number of action movie stars and creating a reality TV show to bring Fight To Fame to life.

Machado is no stranger to fighting glory, having won every Brazillian National Championship in every belt division from the time he was 14 to the time he was 21. His record of 365 wins and 0 losses in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competition makes him a clear choice for helping to uncover and mentor the next generation of talented fighters, particularly those from Brazil, as part of the Fight To Fame search.

“I’ve dedicated my life to mentoring and uplifting the next generation of talented fighters, not just in my home country of Brazil, but around the world,” said Machado. “I believe that nurturing the minds and talents of our young people is the key to investing in the collective betterment of humanity. Fight To Fame was created by leaders who also believe in this mission, and I couldn’t be more proud to join them in making this vision a global reality.”

The competition is slated to kick off in Fall 2019. Champion Ambassadors like Machado and Van Heerden will help spearhead the first stages, leading an international combat talent search in over 100 countries. Selected fighters will attend “Fight School,” where they will learn the tricks of the film fighting trade, and compete with one another for the grand prize: the “Gold Belt” and a featured role in an upcoming action film, furnished by several major Hollywood production companies.

Teca became very interested in the unique business model of Fight to Fame — based on creating the next generation Hollywood action stars on a global scale. With the encouragement of her husband #1 Cage Announcer Carlos Kremer, she finally joined the team.

The Fight to Fame press conference attracted more than 400 guests and strategic investment partners from more than 10 countries and regions. To learn more about the project go to www.fight2fame.com

Fight To Fame, the first blockchain-based, globally integrated platform paving a new path to fame for fighters around the world, held its groundbreaking event in Thailand last Friday, September 20th. The event was well attended by the media and members of the royal family who came out to support the efforts of the Fight to Fame team. The first press conference covered details on the blockchain technology and a decentralized voting mechanism being used to support the project.

Notable Fight to Fame team members who attended included fighting champion and Africa Ambassador Chris Van Heerden, and executive team members, including Dennis Warner (WCK President and head of the Fight to Fame Event Committee), Farzam Kalamadi (Chairman of the Board of Directors), Flex Moore (Chairman of the Action Star Reality Show), Philippe Diaz (President of Cinema Libre Studio and Chairman of the Film Committee), Tim Smithe (Spokesperson and Chairman of Global Operations) and Aaron Brill (Chairman of European Operations). The event was announced by the world’s #1 combat tournament host Carlos Kremer, who also joined Fight to Fame last week as Chairman of the Event Committee.

According to local media accounts by SOHU, “A total of 4 live Muay Thai events were held and guests directly used a beta-version of the Fight to Fame platform to vote on the spot for both sides of the boxing match. Carlos [Kremer], the first host of the global event hosted by the site, believes that “this means that Fight to Fame has written a new chapter in history.”.”

“We are incredibly inspired by the energy our team felt during and after the event in Bangkok and are going to use it to mount the next series of events. Fight to Fame is coming to change the game, and we are ready,” Tim Smithe commented. The Fight to Fame team is planning more announcements and events to come. To learn more go to www.fight2fame.com.

Hand-speed is about connecting with the target first with the greatest possible force. A boxer with exceptional hand-speed is a far bigger competitive threat than one with a hard one-punch knockout. And while training is critical, it’s become increasingly clear that it can only take you so far. Fast boxers are largely the result of nature, not nurture.

Former US Olympian and multiple-division Boxing World Champion Roy Jones Jr. ranks among the fastest punchers in the ring, and one of the fastest fighters of all time pound for pound. What’s most impressive is that Jones has retained his standard of speed across weight classes, from middleweight to super middleweight to light heavyweight to heavyweight.

This is a crazy feat, because generally speaking adding muscle and body mass doesn’t usually help athletes with speed. It’s no surprise that Jones is the only boxer in history to start his career as a junior middleweight and go on to win a heavyweight title, and also was the first former middleweight champion to win a heavyweight title in 106 years when he won WBA.

But Jones isn’t just a fast punch — he’s incredibly quick on his feet, too. This overall agility allows him to perform stunning combinations on the fly, with lighting-fast uppercuts and insane rapid-fire hooks.

“I honestly didn’t clock that I was considered one of the fastest hands in the industry until people started calling it out — that’s just the speed my body operates at, so it feels normal to me,” says Jones. “I feel like it’s an apt metaphor for what’s going on in the fighting world right now. You can’t just be the strongest or the most powerful or have the best training. You need other skills that give you added value and most importantly, help you be nimble and agile and adapt to changing situations.”

Jones recently signed on as our newest Elite Champion Ambassador and we couldn’t be more excited to work with him, and have our Fight To Fame competitors learn a thing or two from his quick hands! www.fight2fame.com

Fight To Fame, the first blockchain-based sports entertainment platform paving new paths to fame for action superstars, today announces Dennis Warner as Chairman of Events Promotion. Warner is the creator of WCK Muay Thai, the longest-running Muay Thai event on US television.

Warner’s background in establishing a long-lasting entertainment empire based on large-scale events is an invaluable addition to Fight To Fame’s leadership team. He founded WCK Muay Thai in 1989 when he recognized the opportunity to introduce a new breed of entertainment to American audiences, bringing together top international fighters from the US, China, Japan, Thailand, Australia, the Netherlands, the UK, South Korea, and other countries. He was one of the first members of the core Fight To Fame team, helping to shape key initiatives such as the governing body of the committee chairmen.

“What Fight To Fame seeks to achieve will give new meaning to the idea of a ‘world-class’ fighter. It’s a veritable revolution for the industry in which the momentum of a talented athlete doesn’t just stop at a fight or even a world title,” said Warner. “Fight To Fame is building a global infrastructure in which fighters can navigate their way to career success and everything that comes with that. From fairer compensation to more meaningful fan engagement to an international network of franchise opportunities, this is the vision of a sustainable future for fighters we can all get behind.”

Said Tim Smithe, Spokesperson and Chairman of Global Operations for Fight To Fame: “Dennis brings the ideal blend of industry chops and entrepreneurial spirit to the Fight To Fame team, and already has such an impressive background in pioneering sports entertainment. We are grateful to have his leadership and strategic mind for live events as we roll out Fight To Fame’s vision on a global scale.”

Fight To Fame is creating the future of sports entertainment, powered by a blockchain-based platform to fuel everything from global fan engagement to fair and more transparent monetization opportunities for fighters. With the backing of world champion fighters like South Africa’s Chris Van Heerden — and more to be announced — the company is leading a worldwide talent search to uncover the next generation of action movie heroes, and bring them into superstardom through a series of strategic entertainment and gaming partnerships.

Any fiat money system, based on a central bank, and one without the back up an asset like gold, runs out of steam after seventy years or so. The current US dollar, in its latest form, was born in 1913 with the Federal Reserve Act. It’s long overdue for a facelift.

With a global paper money recession looming, one has to wonder what is next for money?

As a student of and evangelist for digital currency, I suggest that the future of money is digital.

Hard cash has no memory, otherwise known as anonymous. Depending on who you ask, that can be good or bad.

Paper money is an expensive security risk to transport.

I remember when the internet was new. People said they would never put their bank information on-line. Electronic money, transferred over wires and then over computers took some time to be accepted. But they have been accepted.

To understand the role of cryptocurrency, let’s first take a look at the big picture.

To begin with, all citizens, rich or poor, will need to have a digital identity. From the rollout of the “Real ID” in the US, to the biometric scanner on global smartphones, all will stand up and be counted.

The unbanked of this world will be banked, but first must be digitally accounted for. Even if you live in Douala, Cameroon, you will be issued a global Identification Card.

The benefits will be that small loans may now be available to those who never even had a bank account before. The unbanked will have access to micro-loans and for the first time can start a tire business or a barber shop.

And while loans, interest and debt is a two-edged sword, many will have the new consumers chance to finance simple items that they have never possessed before. Items like motorbikes and refrigerators will now become available to all.

The second concept to understand about our (near) future is that all assets can be, and will be digitized and tokenized.

Have you ever applied for a mortgage? The documentation process, the collecting of obscure documents from your past, the time, the sweat, and the closing fees take most of the fun out of this happy occasion.

Money can be a store of value. So how about a digitized land title?

Picture a 10 acre track of land in Vancouver, Canada. Now, if we could parcel out the land into 20 parts, we could also create 20 tokens, each representing a half acre. The tokens could be placed on the stock market for cryptocurrency, a “crypto exchange”, and then traded. As the land increases or decreased in value, the token value would follow. It simplifies land purchasing and ownership.

Artwork can be digitized and tokenized. Would you like to own 1/100 of a Monet? You will be able to.

Blockchain and cryptography technologies mean that literally anyone can create money. Communities with a common theme will be able to create their own currency.

One currency, crypto, is borderless and international. It has no language barriers.

Some of the early cryptos made big promises but had no project supporting them; and by that I mean a real revenue-generating project behind it. The best future cryptos will have multiple income stream projects supporting them.

Tokens exist on the blockchain; an accounting ledger in the cloud.

With smart contracts built into the blockchain, a third-party permission giver, like current banks, are not necessary. If you try to find the Bitcoin headquarters, or the COO, you can’t. They don’t exist. This future is truly decentralized.

The peer-to-peer system is decentralized and has no one overseer. It reduces financial transaction cost and shortens its length of time.

My confession is that I don’t have a crystal ball, but guessing what the future might hold. All citizens will have a digital identity in a digitized, tokenized world, trading multiple currencies unified by cryptocurrency protocols that will not require currency conversion nor trust between parties. Faster. Cheaper. And more secure.
