First Post. First Update
All Over SG Pro was never really meant to be a column. It is simply a place for me to update you readers on the happenings around this little community. Where shall i start? How bout the writers? Johan Yusof and Xanthos? Let’s start with Johan..
I got to know Johan in late 2003 when i started this online community (bear with me which i do my little shill!), Singapore’s 1st ever Professional Wrestling Community Forums! Art Of Pro Wrestling. Its been almost 6 years and i have always been in contact with Johan all this while though we have never met. Johan has always strikes me as gentleman’s gentleman. As avid MMA and professional wrestling fans, we often have distinct likes and dislikes but Johan never tried to enforce his thinking on anyone and it shows in his MMA shows reviews. Which is why Johan was the first to hit my mind when i decided to start SG Pro. Who else better to helm a MMA column than Johan? Like myself, Johan recently signed up with a MMA school and i would say that would only serve to fuel his love for the sport. Expect great reviews from him and do approach him if you wish to have a discussion bout MMA be it the UFC, K-1, Dream, PRIDE. The one thing bout Johan is that he don’t proclaim to know everything but he definitely will make an effort to make it an interesting discussion. So here’s to my friend from over the causeway!
Now that we got the columnists portion settled..
If you own a martial arts gym in Singapore or Malaysia, do email me the following details so that we can put your gym in the list of martial gyms.
Name of gym
Contact number
Address
Specialize in? (MMA/Muay Thai/BJJ/Boxing/etc..)
Your gym logo (preferably in high res jpg format)
If you are an aspiring writer, do email me a sample of your work and we will get in touch with you!
SG Pro – Fight Community may not have the glitzy setup as other forums in Singapore but we hope to give everyone a platform whereby they can talk about the common love for mixed martial arts and professional wrestling. There have been instances where certain forums blatantly promotes certain gyms. That is not going to happen here in SG Pro. Each and every gym will get the same publicity and promoting on the site and on the forums should they approach me. The fight community in Singapore and Malaysia is not really that big, so let’s all work together to promote the fight scene in Singapore and Malaysia. Just in case any of you are wondering, “Gary is based in Singapore, no?” I am in Singapore and for the Malaysia gyms’ publicity and promoting, my good friend, Johan will be helping me on that.
The publicity and promotion is basically very simple. Simply send us the details and we will put it up in the gyms page. I will then proceed to create a thread for your gym and you (the gym owner) can post any events or promotions that you will be having. How much your gym is being promoted really depends on how much effort you put in.
If you are interested in getting the top banner space on the SG Pro site, simply drop me a mail.
With that i conclude my first posting, now.. don’t expect lengthy write ups from me. I’m not really that good with words!
Cheers
Gary
