ATHLETES
AP Management represents a range of incredible athletes in many capacities.
Every client is different, with varying needs.
The knowledge and experience gained from working alongside these athletes is invaluable. From working hands on during fight week (sometimes attending multiple athletes at one time), AP manages their media, social media, sponsorship activations, personal/family requirements, logistics, training schedules (basically whatever they want/need) whilst creating and maintaining relationships along the way.
ISRAEL ADESANYA "STYLEBENDER"
UFC Middleweight Champion Israel Adesanya is forging a legacy. After a stellar kickboxing career, Nigerian-born Adesanya took his talents to the cage and flourished. Taking elements from his passion for dancing an adapting them into his fight game, he has won all 19 of his professional bouts -14 by knockout; doing so with a combination of style, phenomenal striking and fluid movement.
Fighting out of Auckland’s City Kickboxing, Adesanya has taken the UFC by storm since making his promotional debut in February of 2018.
It took him less than two years with the promotion to become undisputed UFC Middleweight Champion, becoming one of the company’s biggest, most marketable stars in the process.
A fighter who talks the talk and walks the walk, Adesanya has turned away some of the biggest names in the history of the UFC’s middleweight division including Yoel Romero, Robert Whittaker and Anderson Silva.
On top of his achievements inside the cage, Adesanya made history when he became the first combat sports athlete to be named New Zealand Sportsman of the Year at the Halberg Awards in 2020.
