Baseball icon Alex Rodriguez is a World Series champion and three-time American League MVP. His ever-evolving portfolio also includes partial ownership of the PFL, one of the fastest growing promotions in mixed martial arts.
Rodriguez contributed to a $30 million funding round to the PFL last May, and he believes there is endless room for growth for the promotion.
“It’s an enormous market,” says Rodriguez. “But there is an incredible amount of scarcity in this sport. When you look at fighting, soccer, and basketball, you’re looking at three of the most popular sports in the world. There are thousands of games across the sport, but there are only 30 to 40 great fights per year.”
