The Supersure TKO UFC deal marks the first time TKO has opted for an insurance-branded sponsor across its properties. Supersure will appear inside the [UFC Octagon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nav-x-ufc), on Zuffa Boxing ring ropes and across UFC BJJ mats, with digital integration across UFC channels and selected broadcast features. The brand will also receive commercial airtime during UFC Freedom 250, a landmark event scheduled for June 14 on the White House grounds.
