Sponsorship of a fighter who is fighting live on espn

[31trainman]

Would the people of akash network be interested in sponsoring a fight that is being live streamed on espn? The potential amount of viewers of this fight presents a huge opportunity to bring new users to akash network.

The fighters are Chris metel and Omar Sandoval. The fight will be on march 16th.

I personally have reservations about one-time commercial events, especially when it comes to crypto projects. However, I don't watch any ESPN events, and there might be a overlap between their viewership and potential Akash users that I may not be fully aware of

What sort of reservations do you have?

I think that if within budget this would be awesome.

I spoke about this with @CaptainSplince when we first met over two years ago now. Akash signs and logo everywhere.

I see the boxer with black trunks and a red Akash logo,as well as a black boxing robe with the logo, walking down in between the public. Would be awesome to see this boxer's corner team with some Akash shirts and merch too!

When we met online 😁

Would need to show the Akash Network url somewhere though, so people know what the logo is.

Maybe a short commercial in between rounds or when they announce the boxer, something like "boxer's presentation and then sponsored by Akash Network - The Unstoppable Cloud - https://akash.network/ "

Would be really cool if the boxer's nickname was "Unstoppable his/her name" too and even better if he/she knocks out their rival in round 1

Hi @31trainman thanks for bringing this idea up. Adding some additional detail might be helpful before considering something like this. I think you have a lot of great ideas but without details, its difficult to act upon it. My initial questions are:

1. How much would this cost?
2. What does it include (terms)?
3. Do you have a relationship with these fighters?
4. Are you wanting to submit a governance proposal?
5. Who is the point of contact? Are you setting up agreements?
6. Who would be signing a contract?
7. Who are we targeting? (I'm assuming retail investors not developers?)
8. What kind of exposure does this get us? (views/impressions/etc.)
9. Who will make the robe/shorts/marketing materials/graphics/etc?
