00:00How do you feel like the year has been for you guys in 2024 and what are you most looking forward to in next year with this organization?
00:10You know, this this year has been a game changer for us for a lot of reasons, man.
00:15You know, when you're kind of getting into this space and you got, you know, different promotions out here and a couple is bigger than you, you always, you know, you're fighting for space.
00:25Right. You want to get out there and let people know about what you're doing.
00:28And this year was a turning point for us.
00:30I mean, we had fighters, you know, come to fight from us from everywhere, not even just from this, from the states, from all over the world.
00:36And, you know, a lot of that happened in 2025.
00:38And we got a bunch of big announcements, some more signings coming up, some more eyeballs and distribution.
00:44We got some tech that should come out in the sport techie and tech crunch next week about our plans in 2025.
00:51And so this is a this is a turning point for us this year, man.
00:54And we're looking to take it, you know, take another step 2025 and hopefully have anywhere between, you know, 12 and 18 fights.
01:02And what's been the big thing for you that's allowed you to have this explosion with lights out this year?
01:06I mean, you guys had, you know, three or four fights a year for the first couple of years.
01:10And then, you know, going up to, you know, with 10 fights this year, it was a huge explosion of, you know, the amount of product you're able to put out there.
01:18What was the biggest thing that drove that for you guys this year?
01:21You know, I think, for one, you know, the quality of fighters, man, like they we just took it to another level with these guys.
01:29If you watch any of our fights, any one of these guys, you know, our co-main event, our last three or four fights tonight,
01:34any of these guys could be ready for the UFC a few fights later.
01:37Even some of our amateurs that we got on the card can turn pro the next fight.
01:41You know, we have just very, very high level of fighters.
01:43And also, too, the fan base, man, has just kept growing.
01:47You know, I'm actually headed off to the Chargers game in a couple hours.
01:50You'll see them kick the Broncos butt for Thursday Night Football.
01:54And, you know, when I'm out now, people ask us about, you know, when's the next event?
01:58You know, when can we get there?
01:59When are the tickets going to go on sale?
02:01And that's, you know, that's been a kind of driving point because it wasn't like this a year and a half ago.
02:05So I'm excited, man.
02:06And also, I see some of these other promotions launching and things.
02:10And I've been around this thing for 18 years.
02:12And, you know, I've seen a lot of people come and go and just not doing it right.
02:16And we're doing it the right way.
02:17We're doing it organically by building a brand, building these fighters up,
02:20and get ready for them to go to the next level of their career.
02:24Yeah, absolutely.
02:25You know, a lot of promotions.
02:26Obviously, you want to keep fighting as long as you can.
02:28But, you know, you've done a great job knowing where you guys are and knowing, you know, not holding these guys back.
02:33It's been great to watch them go on and do even more things outside of your organization.
02:37See the new blood coming in.
02:38It's been a great ebb and flow for you guys.
