According to a report by Eurpoean Gaming, the first podcast, called “Champions Corner Podcast,” is hosted by current UFC flyweight champion Brandon Moreno. Conducted in Spanish, the podcast is already available and has featured guests such as Rey Mysterio, Diego Lopez, Moreno’s wife, and his psychologist.

The second podcast, titled “On The House,” will be hosted by renowned agent and MMA businessman Jason House. This English-language podcast is set to premiere in mid-summer.

The third podcast, known as “Chute Boxe Podcast,” will be hosted by Diego Lima, head coach and manager of Brazil’s famous Chute Boxe Academy. This Portuguese-language podcast is expected to premiere in late summer and will include guests like former UFC Lightweight Champion Charles Oliveira.

To support this podcast initiative, Roobet has built two state-of-the-art podcast studios—one at Jason House’s Iridium Sports Agency headquarters in Las Vegas and the other at the renowned Chute Boxe Academy in São Paulo, Brazil.

This podcast slate is part of Roobet’s broader commitment to supporting combat sports athletes and content creators. Over the past year, Roobet has been a major sponsor of fighters such as Brandon Moreno, Charles Oliveira, and the Chute Boxe Academy. They have also sponsored multiple world champion Canelo Alvarez, former UFC Middleweight Champion Alex Pereira, and UFC star Marlon “Chito” Vera.

Anthony Brennan, Roobet Co-Founder and Head of Partnerships, expressed the company’s dedication to supporting fighters beyond their fighting careers and providing platforms for their personal growth. The podcasts offer a unique opportunity for the fighters to engage with their fans and control their own narratives.

With the launch of these podcasts, Roobet aims to amplify the voices of these influential figures in the MMA community and contribute to the growth and revenue streams of the fighters outside the cage.

Dana White’s Revelas Plans For Stunning Custom UFC Belts for Mexican Champions

Dana White, the President of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), has announced his plans to create custom UFC belts specifically designed for Mexican champions. In an interview with Complex, White discussed his passion for sneaker collecting and revealed his intention to extend this customization concept to the prestigious UFC belts.

During the interview, White highlighted a particular sneaker—a custom Jordan 1—designed by an unnamed Mexican artist. This sneaker served as the inspiration for his idea of customized belts. White proudly mentioned that he currently has three Mexican world champions: Alexa Grasso, the women’s flyweight champion, Brandon Moreno, the flyweight champion, and Yair Rodriguez, the interim featherweight champion.

The artist behind the sneakers proposed a unique concept of painting the UFC belts with the Mexican flag and other creative designs. Intrigued by the idea, White enthusiastically confirmed his intention to move forward with the project, stating, “I’m actually going to do it. So these fighters would have a one-of-one custom Mexican championship belt.”

It appears that Yair Rodriguez, the interim featherweight champion, has already embraced the idea of a customized belt. In a recent Instagram video posted on July 3, Rodriguez showcased his personalized UFC interim title, which had been artistically modified. The responsible artists for Rodriguez’s customized belt are Jacobo & María Ángeles, renowned for their expertise in wood carving Zapotec figures. They operate from San Martin Tilcajete, Mexico.

Although White did not disclose the name of the artist behind his custom sneakers, his collaboration with the talented Mexican artist for the UFC belts is an exciting development. These custom-designed belts will not only celebrate the achievements of Mexican champions but also serve as unique symbols of their accomplishments within the UFC.
