An Approach That Changes The Rules Of Sport
As Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) continues to grow at an unprecedented pace, innovative figures like Ivan Batalanto are leading the change. Batalanto, CEO of 4Fouris revolutionizing traditional combat sports. His platform, 4Four, fuses unpredictability with strategy. This combination is poised to transform the way we experience MMA events.
The Element of Surprise: A New Way of Fighting
The most exciting thing about 4Four is the element of surprise. The fighters know who their opponent will be and what weight they will be competing at, but they don’t know the discipline in which they will be fighting. As Batalanto explains, “The fighters know who they will face and in what weight class, but the discipline remains a mystery until the fight begins.” This is where 4Four departs from convention.
Instead of following a single combat style, 4Four offers four different disciplines: striking, grappling and others, chosen at random. The discipline is decided with a die. The fighters step into the ring and the referee rolls the die. Depending on the result, the fight will take place in the given discipline. But the surprise does not end there.
Wild Cards and Strategy: A Game of Chance
In addition to the die, 4Four introduces two jokers, one for each corner (red and blue). If the die lands on a wild card, the corner team gets to choose the discipline. This twist not only keeps fans on the edge of their seats, but also gives fighters the opportunity to influence the dynamics of the fight.
Time Outs: A Tactical Advantage
To increase the strategic elements, each corner can request a time out. This can be used at any time during the fight. It is a crucial opportunity to save a fighter from being knocked out or submitted. With a single 10-minute round, this time-out can turn the tide of the fight.
Conclusion: The Future of Combat Sports
4Four is not just another MMA promotion. It’s a revolutionary platform that changes how fights are fought, watched and enjoyed. With its combination of chance, strategy and excitement, 4Four ushers in a new era in combat sports. This movement will change the rules of the game. The future of MMA is already here.
