UFC & FIGHTDVD PARTNER FOR SENI COMBAT SHOW


PRESS Release

FightDVD, the leading MMA DVD distributors in Europe will be exhibiting with the Ultimate Fighting Championship promoters at this year’s Seni show. FightDVD Chairman Ian Allan and President of UFC UK Marshall Zelaznik have confirmed that the two companies will share a stand at Seni 07 on 19th and 20th May which will be a UFC experience.

“We have a very strong relationship with the UFC,” said Ian Allan of FightDVD “With our knowledge of the British market we’re hoping to help push the UFC into the mainstream.”

FightDVD is part of the Clear Vision Ltd Company (est. 1989) and was launched in 2004 to License their MMA titles. The UFC Licence was granted to Clear Vision in 2002 and since then they have released over 70 UFC DVD titles, with a continued release schedule of a new UFC DVD release each month.

Although names are yet to be confirmed, Fight DVD and UFC will have some top UFC stars appearing exclusively on their Seni stand for meet and greets, signings and Q&A sessions. Various names have been mentioned such as Randy Couture, Tito Ortiz, Quinton Jackson, Chuck Liddell and Mike Bisping.

The UFC/Fight DVD stand is set to be one of the highlights of this year’s Seni and will be interactive and inviting for the shows visitors. As well as getting to meet the UFC stars, customers will of course be able to buy or order every UFC DVD released by FightDVD as well as an extensive range of official UFC Merchandise.

This year’s Seni is expected to draw in the biggest crowd to date as the Worlds largest combat sports expo moves from the NEC to the Excel Centre. For the first time since its inception Seni will relocate to London, ExCeL to bring an extensive range of fight sports, classic martial arts, culturally stimulating displays and cutting edge health and fitness knowledge to a new audience expected to be in the region of 40,000 people over the weekend.

With 30 minute queues around the Fight DVD stand at Seni 06 last year the trouble shooting has already begun. One thing’s for sure, the UFC/Fight DVD stand is going to be the place to be for any MMA fan.
