MMAHallofFame is currently under construction.

The first section that needs to be completely built out is the Judges Panel. Once built, the majority of Judges Panel members will be approached. The appearance of a name below does not indicate that they have agreed to be judges, although participation from several critical individuals has been secured.

We need unique content, perhaps three paragraphs in length, for each member. Budget for the text portion is $0, so I reaching out to the UG/OG/MMA community. Your byline and Twitter link will appear on the Judge's Profile page, and you will be a part of the sport's history.

If you want to participate, dibs a name or names by posting it below. Names in bold have been done, regular text means I need help. Send the content ideally within three or four days to Kirik@MMA.tv. Please add your twitter link, facebook, homepage, or other information you want on your byline. And please put MMA Hall of Fame in the message title.

itputsthelotioninthebasket - Kirik, can you be more specific on "unique content"? Biography, why they are a fan favorite, noteworthy achievements? Three paragraphs is short, what are you specifically looking for?

Great question!

By unique content I meant, please don't cut n paste from somewhere.

The content should convey why the individual in question was asked to be a judge for the HoF - a little bio and a little noteworthy achievements. Would be the same content you might find on the about page of their site.

wreckker 98 Member Since: 1/1/01 Posts: 10335	This sport is too young to have a hall of fame. Especially in journalism, mma recieved very little coverage This forum has been around for information alot longer than many of those journalism nominees. Still evolving and not even 20 years old really... Hall of fame stuff could wait imo. You have ignored this user.
