We love seeing fighters getting paid their worth. Bellator 277 was a fabulous event for Bellator MMA featherweight Aaron Pico. The American mixed martial artist battered Adli Edwards for a TKO during his bout at Bellator 277. During his post-fight Octagon interview, the fighter took a moment to thank his sponsors for the fight—one of them being the Joe Rogan-inspired crypto-token, Marshall Inu. 

Marshall Rogan Inu, a digital token inspired by Rogan’s beloved dog Marshall Mae Rogan, was launched to help fighters financially. They’ve been a steadily growing community with their ups and downs, but Pico just gave another reason for doubters of the token to have an open mind about how they can change lives for the better. 

Pico reminisced about his beginnings in the sport and thanked multiple sponsors for being with him at every step of his career. During his post-fight octagon interview, he took a specific moment to emphasize on Marshall Inu among other sponsors. In his own words, this is what he had to say. 

“I just wanna thank all my sponsors, Monster energy… David August clothing and Marshall Inu, crypto. All the sponsors that I wear on my shorts have been by my side when I was four and three, and all of them said ‘You know what, you’re gonna be world champion.’” 

Safe to say, the token that has been in discussion in the MMA community has been paying off for fighters well enough.

Joe Rogan on Marshall Inu 

It should be understood that the token has merely inspired by Joe Rogan’s dog, but he has no involvement in it whatsoever. The token merely used Marshall Mae Rogan as its face. That being said, it is very much excluded from all of Joe Rogan’s business aspects. 

Marshall Inu launched the token in February 2022 and has been in use ever since. The token has paid off over $800K for MMA fighters for various purposes. The hype around the coin is increasing steadily as we speak. As more fighters, especially UFC fighters, talk about it during their post-fight interviews, the coin increases in value.

Of course, the coin comes with its doubts. There are parts of the MMA community that think this is another cryptocurrency scam. Those scams work by inflating the coin’s value with paid affiliations with personalities.

As long as the coin helps fighters make a better livelihood, everyone’s on board. Here’s to a better future and success for the struggling fighters in the sport that we all love and enjoy!
