World’s Most Famous Boxer “Pump Fakes” Fight Promotion For Daily Fantasy App
‘Daily Number’ Reaches Exclusive Partnership With Floyd Mayweather
Daily Number, the hottest new daily fantasy sports app, today announced its exclusive partnership with legendary boxer Floyd Mayweather. This announcement was delivered as a fight promotion “pump fake” that put the boxing world on notice and signaled the start of an exclusive partnership between the crown jewel of daily fantasy sports and one of the most famous boxers in history. Daily Number is founded by successful entrepreneur Tom McAuley.
To officially announce this partnership, Daily Number worked closely with Mayweather and Connor Kroll, both of whom have joined the company as equity partners along with Co-Founder and All-Pro NFL Cornerback Richard Sherman, to covertly orchestrate a pseudo fight promotion aimed at shocking the sports world into believing one of the most successful boxers of all time was coming out of retirement. Mayweather ignited the rumor mill by posting a teaser video on his social media accounts on Monday, teasing a big announcement. Today, Mayweather made his much-anticipated big announcement with another video on social media. In the video, the global sports icon held a fake press conference to announce his exclusive partnership with Daily Number.
“I’m excited to announce to the world that The Money Team is now Team Daily Number,” said Mayweather. “You’re talking about the highest paid athlete of all time. It doesn’t take me 10 years to collect a couple hundred million like those guys playing baseball. Daily Number and my brand together is a guaranteed home run.”
The artificial fight promotion is just the beginning for Daily Number, which will be rolling out unique content over the next year featuring Floyd Mayweather, Richard Sherman, Antonio Brown, Paul Pierce and more.
“Daily Number is just going to keep punching you in the mouth,” said McAuley. “Right when you think we’ve stretched the limits of what is possible for an early stage company, we’re going to hit you with the next thing. It truly is an exciting place to be, where the craziest idea you can imagine is executable. That’s 100% a factor of the incredible people that have bought into what we’re doing.”
About Daily Number
Daily Number initially launched in beta in the fall of 2018 behind the endorsement of Sherman, who is the company’s chief brand ambassador, in addition to being a co-founder with McAuley. The company’s patent-pending fantasy sports platform empowers fans to select their own degree of difficulty and subsequent prize, by picking any combination of players – from a lineup filled with all-stars to a roster comprised of role players – to simply beat a preset target score known as the Daily Number. The platform provides unmatched control and enhanced transparency for DFS players throughout the United States.
In addition, the company is also building a lifestyle brand that is unique to the sports gaming industry and will be rolling out additional games over the next year.
Daily Number is available to play on the web and for download on iTunes & Google Play Stores and features daily fantasy opportunities for the NFL, NBA, MLB, and PGA. After being founded in the fall of 2018, the company has been featured in Sports Illustrated, ESPN and CBS Sports.
