(PRESS RELEASE) -- The Ultimate Warrior Challenge (UWC) announced today that video footage of their fights from their October "UWC: Confrontation" event are now available for viewing or download on the most trafficked mixed martial arts (MMA) news site in the sport, Sherdog.com.

"Our top goal is to consistently bring the highest quality MMA to the Washington, DC area and we feel we did that with 'UWC: Confrontation' in October. However, it's a very special honor to be able to share our product with literally the world at no cost to fans," said Ultimate Warrior Sports Development CEO Marcello Foran. "We know more than 5,000 fans attended this last show live and 46,000 plus fans tuned in online to watch us at Sherdog.com. We're proud of those numbers and believe that the partnership between UWC and Sherdog.com can only be mutually beneficial moving forward."

Foran also noted the strategic partnership with Sherdog.com, the ESPN affiliate for MMA and news leader in the industry, demonstrates the value added of UWC in its ability to reach fans outside of its base of operations. "While it's clear our home is the Washington, DC area, we believe we have a product any fan of MMA can enjoy. Our fighters are top-level, experienced professionals and our shows are run by a passionate and knowledgeable staff who understands what it takes to produce a first-rate show. That's why this partnership with Sherdog.com is so important. We have the ability to showcase our product to anyone at anytime anywhere in the world," Foran noted.

"It's also worth noting that UWC offers MMA fans the best in MMA without breaking the bank," Foran said. "We understand current economic conditions are tough and make purchasing decisions more difficult. That's why UWC wants to make those choices easier. We have to work smarter to deliver the UWC product and experience to fans. That means not only offering affordable tickets for local fans, but also allowing those fans who aren't close to enough to see fights live to still experience the excitement and action at a reasonable price. I can say confidently there's nothing more reasonable than free. Free fights for anyone to see online at any time is a step in the right direction and the first among many innovations UWC plans to offer. We encourage everyone to visit www.sherdog.com Sherdog “Videos” to watch and enjoy 'UWC: Confrontation'." The fights are also available for free by directly clicking here.
