KG and Backstage will unveil more surprises about the BFA NFT Experience

The BFA Experience offers fans a more engaging experience with KG, while showing other athletes how to monetize their talent. NFT experiences have the potential to revolutionize the sports industry, and we’re excited to discuss all about it in our livestream.

If you saw our announcement, you know we haven’t released many details about the training camp experience. We plan to do that during our livestream. Tune in on Kelvin Gastelum’s Instagram — and you’ll be among the first to know what the Backstage Fight Academy Experience is all about.

Be a part of Kelvin Gastelum’s comeback to the UFC

Kelvin Gastelum has had to take some time away from the UFC, due to injury. On the 14th of January 2023, he’s set to return in a match versus Nasourdin Imavov.

KG is coming back to the UFC.

KG’s comeback to the UFC lines up perfectly with the BFA Experience. By joining the camp, you’ll get the chance to workout and train with KG as he’s preparing for his return to the UFC. You’ll get a firsthand look at all the hard work and dedication that goes into preparing for a fight. How amazing is that?

This raffle is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to train directly with a UFC star. If you’re lucky enough, you can win the experience and spend only $29 USD!

Born in 1991 in San Jose, California, Kelvin Gastelum’s fighting career began in high school as a wrestler. Kelvin excelled at wrestling at North Idaho College, and then decided to pursue a career in mixed martial arts professionally.
