5Five 4Four Limited, the producers of Face OFF, Fight Night & The African KnockOut Show, have partnered with Sports247 as a media partner for the 2022 edition of the show.
In a statement by the CEO of Sports247 network, Jide Olusola Jide-Ojo, the partnership agreement was announced and the brand is happy to partner for the second time with one of the most influential grassroots show in Nigeria and Africa at large as it works well with the aim of the media outfit.

“We’re happy as an organization to receive requests like this and we’re dedicated to achieving our mission and vision statement when it comes to our local content, providing a platform and good leverage outside,” Jide said.
Sports247 had earlier in 2020 partnered with the event when the request first came in, putting out content to educate and inform people about the show, from fighters, to organizers and every bit of information, providing the best media coverage possible which certainly led to the company requesting for the media organization’s partnership once again.
“Having a discussion with the CEO of YD Events, Yetty Ogunnubi, we know that this relationship is going to be positive and this year we’re ready to do more. We’re going to give it the kind of publicity it deserves as is our goal, anything sports first. We’re rolling it out on all our platforms, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, radio, and tv as well because that’s what we do and this event has come to stay and we’re happy to support this course,” he concluded.
5Five 4Four Limited has partnered with the Nigerian Born, No. 1 Pound for Pound MMA fighter and the UFC World Champion Kamaru USMAN with a vision to create the first exclusive African MMA league.
