It has grown to events in multiple cities in the Rocky Mountains region and is one of the main growing grounds for up and coming fighters, some of which have ended up in the UFC. In the beginning I handled all facets of the business myself- health insurance, bonds, licensing, media placements, PR, web development, sales, signing fighters and managing a 15 person staff at events. 
I Partnered with Olympic Gold Medalist Rulon Gardner for branding. We produced $52,000 in ticket sales, sold-out our venue, were on the front page of Herald Journal and Utah Statesman. 
I sold the promotion in August 2012 to focus on other endeavors.
