Former Penn State national champion and All-American wrestler [autotag]Bo Nickal[/autotag] has signed a deal with Betr, the world’s first micro-betting app.
The company is based in Ohio and was founded by Joey Levy and social media influencer and boxer Jake Paul. Nickal will be working specifically with Betr’s new combat sports division to provide them with exclusive content and coverage.
The former Nittany Lion has had a busy 2023 so far with signing the deal with Betr as well as being added to the UFC’s video game roster.
Things won’t be slowing down either as Nickal is set to make his UFC debut on March 4 in Las Vegas at UFC 285 where he will be facing Jamie Pickett. Nickal was supposed to face Pickett on Dec. 10 at UFC 282, but Nickal withdrew from the card due to an injury and the fight got pushed back.
Nickal signed with the UFC after going 3-0 as a professional fighter including two wins in the Dana White Contender Series. Worth noting, Nickal will be on the pay-per-view card of UFC 285, which is unheard of for a newcomer to the promotion. This speaks to what they think of him as a prospect while many are already touting him as a future star in the sport.
