UFC Promoting PokerStars In The Octagon

The partnership between PokerStars and UFC started in December 2018, when the poker brand became UFC’s first-ever Official Poker Partner. The PokerStars logo began appearing on the canvas of the world-famous Octagon during UFC’s final Pay-Per-View event of 2018, UFC 232: Jones vs. Gustafsson 2.

The famous red spade logo will once again be visible on April 13, at the UFC 236: Max Holloway vs. Dustin Poirier 2 which takes place in Atlanta, Georgia. The logo will once again be visible at UFC 237: Namajunas vs. Andrade which is set to take place in in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on May 11. The exclusive partnership will allow the PokerStars brand to be present in all other Pay-Per-View events organized by the UFC throughout the year.

PokerStars has also launched UFC-themed promotions, welcoming UFC fans into the fold. This year, the online poker website will release products which will feature exclusive UFC experiences along with cash prizes.
