Stake.com announces Israel Adesanya as their Global branded ambassador

[rdbase]

Adesanya in his Stake gear interviewing with ESPN!

More than half a million people have watched the interview. For majority of the people the term Stake on his t-shirt looks different. Atleast a few thousand people would've started to use Stake. Following this we can expect more gambling sites have their brand ambassadors promoting their gambling sites.

Before this guy was announced Stake's global brand ambassador, he was a nobody to me (also because I do not follow UFC  , maybe it is time to start).
Anyway, that is a very fancy shirt: when will these be given for free to all of us?   I am joking, do not worry.
Great promotional piece, well done Stunna.

Yes, same for me!
First time I have seen him fight was against LaCosta in UFC 253 back in November of last year.
But that seems like a life time ago though.

Now with this one going to kick off in 49 hours from now, they have livestreaming of the weigh-ins and a press conference starting in a few minutes from now -

Pretty big news for a crypto casino to garner such a deal between Dana white and his associating crew because they are a hard bunch to crack.

So congratulations on this achievement Stunna, MICRO and Eddie the ceo and owners of Stake.

This is a first in the Cryptocurrency industry, this is probably the biggest name to become an ambassador in the gambling industry, and I expect Adesanya to rule the UFC in the next two years and that's a huge promotion for Stake, they will attain the number one position in just a short period of time.

Stake is already the number one gambling site with a large number of casino games and now the sports betting and they are collaborating with UFC which is really great call and we are expecting more collaboration as they have the bank roll and they do have large number of players in the site.
I do play in multiple sites and now mainly focus on Stake as they have the best odds in sports for the matches i bet.

A big win to Stake.com this is a remarkable achievement in a short while, with the recent partnerships stake.com may as well be one of the famous crypto casinos gambling site. This is just the beginning as I foresee many partnership incoming. Congrats to Stake.com and the team behind this high flying site.

Didn't stunna say he was going to do some giveaways and contests just for us here on the forums or was this going to be done solely on their site within their chat room in sports?
Or am I under the wrong impression of his message from late last month on this?
(...)

I still recall seeing Stunna's reply on this thread giving hints about future Adesanya-related giveaways and contests. While there haven't really been any of such events strictly for Bitcointalk forum users, there are others that we can still take advantage of. For instance, Stake is offering up to 3x winnings if Adesanya ends the fight early against Blachowicz. (link to promo: https://promotions.stake.com/adesanya-triple-winnings/)

I'm sure the stake team is cooking something up more promos and contests in the near future. Until then, we just have to focus on the one currently available to us. Good luck if you do decide to take part in the promo if you haven't already.

Well from the stake thread they will be doing a giveaway of prizes on their site and players only.
Kinda bummed out nothing for the forum members who love to bet on the ufc and also follow stake.

Well, there is a lot of hope, everyone has a very good hope in Adesanya, Stake.coyam is actually in the best events, now in this sport the mere fact that they see stake.com in the UFC is great, it has worldwide recognition, in many of the polls have first place, consequently with all these exciting events in my personal opinion I hope that Adesanya can win this fight and the great successes follow.

[acquafredda]

UFC check!
Now the strategy would be that of targeting all the major sports, the ones followed by the millions. These include American football, soccer, rugby, tennis, golf, baseball, cricket, field hockey 
Imagine what would be like seeing reaching those public 

[blockman]

Stake.com has always been ahead of the game when it comes to media and publication and making of isreal the brand ambassador is another good step in the right direction. Great mile for the entire gambling industry hope to see other platforms like bustadice making brand ambassador also.

Other casinos that want to expand their reach would do that and if they are within the budget, it's a very helpful step for their business.

Wow, this is big. I thought that it's just going to be another popular fighter but it's the whole UFC that have been into partnership. What a big news and surprise! Congratulations stake fam.

No wonder why stake stays this long in the market because of their continues progress and bringing their player the experiences they are looking for , keeps on listening what gamblers want and providing them what they like.
I have also played in several sites but Stake is one of the most that i love.
UFC is one of the most popular sports in the past years and this even overtaken the Boxing industry for some reason.

I hope everyone had gotten their bet in for Adesanya for today's fight? For anyone who missed it, in addition to the 3x winnings promo earlier made available by stake team, There's a $5000 giveaway for 10 players thanks to the recent UFC partnership between stake team and the UFC. It's worth noting that Stake has the best odds available for the fight.

I don't really know about others but my money is definitely on Israel even though he doesn't finish the fight early for those juicy 3x rewards!

It is indeed a huge surprise when they signed a deal with the UFC. Signing a player is one aspect and to sign a deal with a sporting brand and that too from one of our family members in the cryptocurrency space is a proud moment and i was glad when some of the sites from the crypto space started to venture to soccer and now the UFC.

[cabron]

Wow congratulations to Stake for being an official partner of UFC. I hope they put BTC beside the Stake logo inside the cage.

It's not yet late right?  Okay. so I just bet $20 for Winning Method, Adesanya, Israel By KO. Blackowicz may have an outstanding record climbing up to become the light heavyweight but I'm not sure he is faster than Adesanya.

[rdbase]

^^
Speed doesn't always win you fights.
Cause if power can connect then thats all you would need to end the match early and walk away with another belt.
But we will see in 24 hours from now when these two go at it for their own respective championship belt titles.

Does anyone think there will be another 1 million dollar bet from the MGM since it is Vegas afterall.

Hey OP, rdbase, I never posted in this thread before but now I'm actually having a proper MMA parlay on my betslip and looking into things like stats and all that, I think it's about time I make an entrance;)

Israel's also on my pick tonight -- but not my parlay as the odds weren't so special for me, as I explained in the other specific thread for tonight's fight!

Sorry to ask a noob question but how many fights has he had since becoming Stake ambassador?

Hey Buwaytress and welcome to the real.

This will be the first fight for Israel as their ambassador since their official announcement of their deal amongst themselves.
So the pressure is all on him to produce and make their effort to have a champion as the face of their organization after this one is said and done with.

Here is a summary of what I have just watched on the preview of the fight night for UFC 259 being broadcasted here in North America.
But here are the stats you were talking about on the other betting thread about the amount of strikes each fighter throws per minute in their past fights.




Don't know how this UFC main event will end, the way the matches have gone so far.
A few underdogs won their matches in strange ways.
So is the UFC fight nights and how they go sometimes.

Unfortunately "our" Stake ambassador lost his first fight of this partnership, I don't really understand why Stake chose this guy actually, a lady like Amanda Nunes would have been a more original, modern (and smarter) choice IMHO.

Before his first loss he was
-undefeated
-KO specialist
-has huge potential

So I think for someone who is fun to watch with anyone looking for a star/celebrity as a endorsement won't go wrong with him. Now the risk of signing a sports star is of course his success in the sport he is in and I don't think you need to blame Stake on signing him right before his first loss. I have watched the bout and this match reminded me of the first match of AJ and Andy Ruiz not because Jan Błachowicz is like Andy Ruiz but Adesanya surely is like Anthony Joshua during that match. He was like AJ in a way where he wasn't himself or you will see that he has no confidence during the match he simply wasn't in his game this time and I think that is one of the biggest reasons why he didn't pull out an amazing win.

He still has a huge potential IMHO, and I'm not blaming them, they do whatever they want. I'm just wondering because I don't think it's a very original choice, a partnership with a lady in MMA would just have been more original and noticeable IMO, that's all. This guy is nice and he's a real champion but it's a too common and expected choice I think.

He still deserves to be an ambassador and his worth as an ambassador hasn't changed, it's not the end of the road for Adesanya, he is still a champion and still the best middleweight champion, I don't see anyone in UFC who can give Adesanya a decent match in the middleweight, congratulation to Jan Blanckowicz, it's a great win and a dominant one.
