World Building Wednesday Suggestion: Sports of the Sixth World

Shamrock Promotions Owned by the Boston Irish mafia, they organize and promote slipshod and oftentimes fixed fights using up and coming boxers and MMA fighters. Operated by ex-Boston police officer Jared “Bottle” Mooney, they regularly revived legal action pertaining to the fixing of fights, illegal gambling, distribution and sale of PEDs, and assault. Although not a racist, none of Jared fights are yet to host fights with non-human metatypes. A firm follower of the *** family, the growing influence of the Vory and Triads as well as the violent outbreak CFD has made Jared nervous and now he rarely travels without a small convoy of guard. In more recent news, Mooney has organized a major fight as a “charity” for those trapped in the containment zone. Azlatner boxer Jorge “Montezuma” Vasquez fighting against New England Regional champion Owen “Braveheart” Gibson. Both fighters are competing for publicly competing for nothing, but have been promised upwards of ¥100,000 in the event of their victory. So far, the total donations and ticket sales for the bought have already bypassed regular yearly sales (which was already in the millions). Smelling a payday, Jared’ rumored to be looking for outside “talent” to help him keep the already huge bank. *Dancing Devil Entertainment Property of the Nine Dragon Triad, they operate and arrange for Muay Thai boxing contests in Thailand. Operating primary in between Rangoon and Bangkok. Most fighters are recruited from the poorer parts of town, fed drugs and Training and then put in the ring against often outmatched opponents in the slums. Those who are either crazy enough or strong enough eventually find their way to more “legitimate” venues in Rangoon. Little care is given to metatypes or race, with particularly exotic metatypes often being kept for special occasions. The current CEO Yindee Pridi cares little for the operation of business and often prefers to spend his time at his nightclub “Bangerz”. *Great Bull Fight Promotions A Moscow based corporation, they are the pride and joy of Vory Tsar Yan (Yanka) Afanasievich Babatyev. Conforming to every stereotype of such a business, most of the fighters have criminal records and often “pay their dues” by becoming leg brakes to the Moscow Vory. The dominant force in Eastern European MMA, and often host fights in nearby countries and overseas (thus leading to smuggling). Currently, Babatyev is looking towards using the company as an olive branch by offering investments in it to German Mafia Don Lupo “Kollegah” Faas.
