Last week THQ celebrated the launch of UFC 2009 Undisputed, the most successful launch in the company’s history, with several parties around the country, none bigger than the even held at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas prior to UFC 98.
The Vegas launch party was held at The MGM Grand’s Tabu Ultra Lounge and was co-hosted by Tequila Cazadores, the official spirits sponsor of the UFC, which presented UFC 2009 Undisputed cover athlete Forrest Griffin with its first Authentic Spirit Award. Tequila Cazadores will continue to award an Authentic Spirit Award to one UFC fighter every month throughout its partnership with the UFC, culminating will culminate with the award-winner who best exemplifies the ideals of sportsmanship, commitment to mixed martial arts and social responsibility being awarded a $10,000 check to benefit the charity of the fighter’s choice.
