Sponsorship

LVRG is always looking for both Amateur and Professional fighters with no formal representation or major sponsorship. We started the LVRG sponsorship program to help fighters at the grassroots to have access to fight gear through sponsorship, at the same time building and marketing your fighter personality. Details of the program are available to those who inquire about sponsorship. If you have any other questions about our sponsorship program feel free to drop us a line.

How to become a LVRG Sponsored Fighter:

If you are an amateur or professional fighter who will be competing in 2011 and feel you represent what LVRG is all about we want to hear from you. Send us a brief bio of yourself, along with your fight record, gym association, and any clips from previous fights that you have available. Feel free to include anything else that will tell us who you are.

LVRG sponsored fighters Dennis Dombrow and Mike Santiago put on impressive performances as well, but ended up on the losing end of their matches. Mistakes happen, now it's time for these two beasts to learn from their mistakes and get back on the grind. There is nothing more motivating than growing from a loss. I feel bad for their next opponents.
