Despite not being an active fighter anymore, Khabib Nurmagomedov is still looking to create a connection with fans and recently revealed that he has something in the works.
Nurmagomedov tweeted a photo announcing his new venture called Gameplan, which will help bring athletes and fans closer together. He is getting into the metaverse and believes that his platform will be revolutionary.
He wrote:
"We are building Gameplan as a platform to bring athletes and fans together like never before. Big news soon, follow @meta_gameplan"
On Gameplan's Twitter account, there was a tweet that provided more information on the platform and what they plan to offer. It is basically described as an all-in-one destination for gamers, writing:
"Gameplan is the first-ever sports metaverse, where fans can play games, create events, shop and meet their favourite athletes. Gamers can take part in a unique experience, attend events and purchase merchandise. It’s the ultimate extension of sports fandom."
The possibilities are endless for the Gamplan metaverse platform, especially considering that 'The Eagle' is on-board. It will be interesting to see how successful this new venture will be for the UFC Hall of Famer.
