LAS VEGAS, World Series of Fighting – Global Championship (WSOF-GC) continues to expand its unprecedented global reach on 6 continents with the recent affiliation agreement with Spain’s Ansgar Fighting League (AFL). AFL will become WSOF Global’s 15th organization since launching the affiliate program at the end of 2015. This also marks the fourth organization in Europe, joining United Kingdom’s Ice FC, Italy’s Slam FC, and Sweden’s IRFA.
AFL Owner & Founder, Fran Montiel, said, “With great joy, it is my pleasure to announce that AFL and WSOF Global have reached a partnership between our two companies. We will grow together in our country, as well as have great international growth thanks to their support. This will mark the dawn of a new beginning in Spanish MMA. WSOF-GC serving as a worldwide digital platform is a big win for us.”
WSOF-GC Affiliate Coordinator, Zachary ‘Bootsy’ Harris, added, “AFL has given MMA a voice in Spain. Now WSOF Global and our Global Family will help give Spanish MMA a stronger voice around the world.”
“We are very excited to make this announcement. Anytime we can find strong organizations that have such raw, pure talent, and bring them to the world to see, it’s a win for everybody,” chimed WSOF-GC President, Shawn Wright. “With our continued expanded reach around the globe, fight fans can get exposure to dozens of MMA events formerly not accessible to the average fan. Our affiliate network of 15 (and still growing) MMA companies sets us apart from every other organization currently in the sport.”
AFL’s next show is scheduled for September 23, 2016 in Barcelona at the prestigious Fira de Barcelona. The event will be headlined with a Welterweight Title fight between Gerardo Lima (7-1) against Joao Bonfim (6-3). MMA fans can watch all of their fights, as well as those from all other affiliates for only $4.99 per month at WSOFGC.com.
World Series of Fighting Global’s ultimate mission is to bring together the best athletes from countries and organizations across the world to compete for a true, globally-recognized world champion.
