iMMA Fight Fan. Are You?

Figure 4, LLC and Shane “Hurricane” Helms release iMMA Fight Fan iPhone app…

Cincinnati, OH – Figure 4 announced today the release of their next iPhone app, iMMA Fight Fan. iMMA Fight Fan is a free iPhone app focused on creating awareness of local, regional and national live MMA events in the United States and Canada.

Figure 4 Chief Consultant, and former WWE / WCW superstar Shane “Hurricane” Helms “wanted to give something back to the MMA community. A community I am a fan of”.

“We (Figure 4) are all MMA fans, and are constantly forgetting about live national events, or where and when a local MMA event is taking place”, said Helms.

Helms continued, “The app will show you events we have in our database by date, company, and even by GPS. It will look at your location and sort events based on mileage from you.”

Requests to include your MMA event can be submitted through the app. Figure 4 asks that only official event promoters or owners submit events.

Shane Helms is best known in the professional wrestling world. With over 20 years of experience, Helms is able to relate to the smaller companies. “I started working with smaller wrestling companies. I saw a lot of hidden talent at that level. Companies and wrestlers that were hungry to be visible. It’s that mentality that made me want to reach out to the MMA community and do what I could to help these local and regional shows get discovered. We just want to help them get word on their shows out.”

The app can be downloaded for free at: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/imma-fight-fan/id520602459?mt=8
