Unbeaten World Series of Fighting lightweight champion Justin “The Highlight” Gaethje has signed a one-year endorsement contract Fuzion Vapor. Based out of St. Johns Park, Florida, Fuzion Vapor is the largest distributor of e-juice across the nation and carries the largest supply of e-cigarette accessories in the state of Florida.
Fuzion owner Shane Johnson, Gaethje’s manager Kyle Stolz, and Hammerhead Sports Marketing owner Ryan Gibson worked with the highly respected Tim Holman of Atlanta, GA to make a contract for sponsorship that is the first of its kind, modeled after the high level ones used in the NFL. Stolz, no stranger to big level sponsorship deals, called the contract given to Gaethje rare and unlike ones generally handed out in MMA. However, in spite of the rarity, he feels Gaethje is more than the right choice for a deal of this level.
“This is one of the biggest endorsement deals I’ve seen in this sport,” said Stolz. “I’d be very surprised if there are more than a handful of fighters with this level of endorsement. In my opinion, Justin is more than worth this however. He’s one of the most exciting fighters in MMA. He’s a dream client with a loyal fan following. We can’t wait to have Fuzion on board.”
The Fuzion owner said the fit is a natural.
“This is a great opportunity to work with one of the best up and coming fighters in the world,” said Johnson. “When we sponsored him for the Palomino fight, we found Justin to represent everything Fuzion Vapor stands for. His refusal to back down in the face of adversity, continued growth as an elite fighter, fan friendly personality inside the cage and out made our choice to extend this long term offer to him a no brainer.”
The sponsorship comes one week after scoring an equally significant deal with The Blackzilians. Johnson feels that the deals with Gaethje and the Blackzilians will help Fuzion Vapor grow in MMA circles, helping the professional growth of their brand as a whole.
“Between our high level deal with the Blackzilians, and now our deal with an elite fighter in Gaethje, we feel the Fuzion Vapor brand has a strong foothold in the MMA community. We feel that this foothold will help us grow our already rapidly growing company even more.”
