MMA All-Star Hall of Famers to Represent United Nissan

LAS VEGAS, Sept. 23, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) mega stars Forrest Griffin and Stephan Bonnar have taken on a new challenge, effective immediately. The world-class champions will now be representing United Nissan Car Dealership, located just east of the famed Las Vegas Strip.

Griffin and Bonnar are spearheading the dealership's Cash For Clunkers campaign- an initiative that encourages Vegas residents to purchase a car sooner by trading in their "clunker" for cash. They will be utilized for commercials, public appearances, and most importantly are tasked with instilling a feeling of protection and confidence between United's customers and the dealership, ensuring that each buyer receives the best price on their vehicle and is treated with exceptional care during their buying experience.

The Mixed Martial Artists (MMA) will represent United Nissan for two years. Together Griffin and Bonnar have over 40 wins on their MMA record. The two are credited with bringing MMA into the mainstream after their match against each other in 2005. Their fight, which Griffin won, was 'the greatest fight in MMA history' in 2009.

"Forrest Griffin and Stephan Bonnar are exceptional athletes.  They both combine top performance in their craft with sportsmanship and power, which are the qualities that are rooted in our vehicles," said Don Forman, Owner of United Nissan and Forman Automotive Group. "They are both the perfect choice to be our brand ambassadors."

For the duration of the partnership, both athletes will drive a United Nissan vehicle. Forrest will sport a Nissan Platinum Pathfinder, and Bonnar a Nissan Platinum Armada.

"I'm very pleased to be a brand ambassador for United Nissan, because it genuinely a perfect fit," said Forrest. "Nissans are built to be durable, strong and reliable- similar to how we train to compete. I look forward to representing such a honorable brand and auto company."
