IMMAF pins down equipment partner

The International Mixed Martial Arts Federation has entered into a partnership with combat sportswear and apparel provider Phantom Athletics.

The company has agreed a two-year deal to become the body’s official equipment partner. The agreement will run until 2018.

As part of the deal, Phantom will develop an IMMAF-specific clothing range, while the company will also be given the chance to supply equipment for future IMMAF championship events.

IMMAF president Kerrith Brown said: “IMMAF is proud to associate with a company whose aim it is to enable effective training through functional equipment and clothing, purpose-built to protect the athlete and promote success.”
