Golden Era of Orgs

Global Association of MMA, Fight Organization, London
Company profile by Mentor Guru Corleone

I have to say, that despite the fact that game has not really been moving forward and the talent pool among fighter managers is nowhere near where it was 5-6 years ago, when it comes down to high level orgs, this is probably the most balanced it has ever been. Besides that, the communication and activity of those org owners is also top notch.  

I remember the situation in the not so distant past, even 2-3 years ago, it was terrible. There was some "top orgs" that had owners that barely logged into the game, it took days to even get a reply. Organizing a top level super fight was sometimes a long and tedious task, the situation was really dire.   

But even if we go back a few years earlier, lets say during the peak era of the game, orgs were run by little clique's or alliances, that where feeding hype towards their prefered hype farms. There was several vendetta's/feud's among orgs as well, so getting the big fights were even worse than 2-3 years ago.   

Do not get me wrong, orgs were in general run way better earlier, there was a lot more hype, articles coming out, often by professional writers. Each org had custom posters being made weekly as well, all of that is in the past now, but if we are comparing a open scene, with relatively open collaboration between orgs, parity, then this is probably the golden era.

  Just to make a comparisson (These are the top 10 with top 100 fighters, excluding-ID orgs):

  Claymore Elite Combat = 13 top 100
Global Association of MMA™ = 13 top 100
Synchronicity = 15 top 100
Empyrean = 14 top 100
PRIDE = 11 top 100
Pulse Fighting Championship = 17 top 100
Empire FC = 5 top 100

  I know for a fact that we have never had 6 orgs with 10+ top 10 fighters in their ranks. In fact, there has been a discussion in the forums about the need of a 3rd 90k arena. In the past, that was NEVER ever debated, in fact, there was some people (i remember Karter was one) who debated that there should be only 1 such arena, to decrease the cash flow.   

Anyway, this article is already too long, it is a good time for the org business at the moment. Link to the forums: http://www.mmatycoon.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=64459
