UFC, USA Wrestling Announce Plans to Renew Partnership for Second Year

The Ultimate Fighting Championship and USA Wrestling have agreed to renew their partnership, according to a Tuesday release.

The Las Vegas-based promotion and the national governing body for wrestling in the United States began working together last year to promote interest in both sports. According to the release, the UFC’s reach will be utilized to help grow USA wrestling, as “its activities will be featured across several areas such as UFC’s broadcasts, social and digital media.”

In addition, USA wrestling will provide its 250,000 member community with chances to experience the UFC, including live events.
