The two partnerships are key to Taunt Battleworld’s development, which will feature legendary boxers Floyd Mayweather & Deontay Wilder.

The introduction of Taunt Battleworld marks a new generation in gaming by being the first to combine multiple ways to play with its new “engage to earn” model.

This is a great opportunity for us to participate in that solution. The combination of Polygon’s leading blockchain solution and support from our studios’ program will allow Turnt’s innovative “engage to earn” model to deliver entertainment and long-term value to the community.”

In addition, Taunt Battleword will combine live in-game data and events with the power of Esports Technologies’ unique predictive gaming platform to create new gaming products and 2nd screen experiences for players around the world.

Bart Barden, COO, Esports Technologies, said, “We look forward to becoming the exclusive in-game data and wagering partner for Turnt Gaming, starting with Taunt Battleworld. Our goal is to create new ways that players can interact with live video content. We can’t wait to start leveraging the power of our quantitative analytics, modeling, and AI platforms and products to unleash a whole new experience for gamers on the blockchain and off.”

It will bring a whole new dimension to NFT gaming by being able to control real fighters (NFTs) and then using those attributes to challenge original Taunt Battleworld characters.

Floyd Mayweather, Boxing World Champion, said: “I’m honored to be one of the first combat sports athletes to appear in Taunt Battleworld, and can’t wait to see the game come to life. Stardam Images and Taunt Battleworld are reinventing gaming’s future. I’m proud to be officially part of it.”

Our commitment to NFT Gaming is evident in the fact that we secured two world-class boxers, Floyd Mayweather, and Deontay Wester.
