Why This MMA Startup Honors Its Military Fanbase

Published May 03, 2016

MMA, or mixed martial arts, is a billion-dollar industry with some of the most powerful fans on earth: our nation's military members.

In the video above, Medina shares what he learned while building a sports startup and explains why his company supports those who serve in the military.
