ABOUT ME

Hey everyone,

Welcome to ETR MMA, the No. 1 source for Daily Fantasy MMA analysis. My name is Brett Appley, and I’ve been breaking down fights from a DraftKings perspective and competing on the DFS scene since 2015, when DraftKings launched their MMA product.

I come from a journalism background, and have a lifelong interest in fantasy sports and gambling, so providing DFS content naturally appealed to me. I also have been training and studying jiu-jitsu since 2011, and received my blue belt in 2013 which I consider one of my biggest accomplishments and the basis for my eventual move to MMA analysis.

When DraftKings launched their MMA product in 2015, I began breaking fights down each week and posting them for free on RotoGrinders. After more than a year of producing content for free, the sport started to grow and I was hired by RotoGrinders as their Lead MMA analyst.

In October, 2016, I launched MMA Premium, a subscription-based service specifically designed to help players learn how to compete and win long-term. I quit my full-time job one year later so that I could dedicate 100 percent of my time and focus to MMA Premium.

In October 2020, I launched DailyFanMMA.com so that I could continue to push the sport forward and grow MMA Premium to its fullest extent, and that has been my home for the past few years.

Winning is tough, but I am extremely proud to say our subscribers have won more than TWO MILLION dollars on DraftKings (based on a handful of screenshots alone), and you can find proof of those results here.

Although I cannot promise that each subscriber will be able to profit, I will work my absolute hardest each and every week to help you learn about the sport and the fighters, and will give you the tools necessary to help you succeed on DraftKings and in your gambling pursuits.

I want to thank you all so much for the support I’ve received over the years, I am forever grateful. Without you, our community and this website would not exist.

MMA PREMIUM

Our content package is referred to as MMA Premium, which focuses on DraftKings analysis, but can be used for many purposes. We offer the following content:

Beat Down – Extensive written article that covers each fight matchup individually, generally 10k-15k words, posted Thursday afternoon/evening of fight week. Each breakdown will focus on the identity and style of the fighters, as well as how the matchup itself should look. We’ll discuss tendencies, paths to victory and more. We’ll also discuss DraftKings strategy in-depth for each individual fighter.

Premium Podcast – In-depth podcast breaking down each fight on the DraftKings slate, approximately 1-2 hours long, with my co-host Gordon Clark on Thursday evening, which can be consumed at any point after recording. Content will be generally similar to what’s contained in the Beat Down article.

Projections/Ownership – Data sets of projected DraftKings points (Mean + Win), as well as projected ownership for the main DraftKings tournament.

Expert Rankings – Tier based rankings for both cash games and tournaments, which can be used as a general guideline for our thoughts and opinions.

Private Discord – Live chat and an amazing community that can be accessed any time. I will be in Chat during most fight nights, hanging out with subscribers and watching the fights together. I’ll also aim to be available multiple times per week, for any subscriber questions.
