UFC Breaks Out ‘Video NFT’ With Francis Ngannou’s Crowning Moment From UFC 260

The growing fad of trading in NFT has also caught up with the world of mixed martial arts. Jumping into the new trend, UFC has announced the release of its own NFT collection, known as ‘UFC Strike NFT’. Reigning heavyweight kingpin Francis Ngannou shared the first look of the new NFT pack that will be available all over the world soon.

‘The Predator’ was granted his very own champion tier NFT from UFC 260- the event where he finished Stipe Miocic with a punch and hammerfist and claimed the UFC belt. This tier of NFTs will carry a golden trim.
