Still, it's an interesting proposition, assuming anyone wants to advertise to the kind of people that watch foreign MMA on a stream.

I do. It's no coindidence that the highest rated shows on TV are all available, free, online "after a word from our sponsors." Fury FC is never going to pull in Lost money, but a savvy MMA company could use the same approach. I, for one, would be happy to watch a commercial or two between rounds if it got me, say, free Shooto. You think you might be able to pull in more (and larger) sponsors with global distribution?

Someone with a little creativity and aggressive marketing could really revolutionize the way MMA is distributed. I agree completely.

I definitely hope this is the start of a trend as far as companies streaming MMA goes. It really can't be too costly to do, especially if you're filming it anyway, and even if you attract 500 new viewers worldwide then it's woorth it. Good write up Lee.
