Put your name in front of New Mexico's fight crowd
Southwest Fight News covers every sanctioned card in the state — results, records, photos, and the people behind them. The audience is small, local, and made almost entirely of people who train, corner, promote or show up on fight night. If those are your customers, there is no cheaper way to reach them.
Every gym is listed free
All 194 gyms in the directory are listed free and always will be. Nobody pays to be found here, and nobody is left out for not paying. What a gym can pay for is the top of the page — and a spot next to the fighter profiles, event coverage and photo galleries that people come to this site for in the first place.

What you are buying into
Southwest Fight News is new and its traffic is small. Anyone quoting you impressions right now would be making them up. What a spot buys today is position on the only complete list of New Mexico gyms that exists, in front of readers who came here to read about fighting — and a rate locked in before that audience grows. Ask us for the numbers and we will send you the real ones, however small they are that month.
What money does not buy
A sponsorship is advertising, and it is labelled as advertising everywhere it appears. It buys placement and nothing else. It does not buy coverage, a mention in a story, a better rating — the gym ratings here are Google's and we do not touch them — or protection from being written about. If you are in the news for something you would rather we skipped, we will still cover it, and your ad will still be running. That is the deal, and it is the only one worth having.
We also do not sell sponsorship of a fighter's profile. Records and results are editorial, and a sponsor badge on one would make every record on this site look bought. Sponsor the database, a card, or a section instead.
