Jorge Masvidal is inspired by Marshall, a dog of Joe Rogan

There is a trend in the crypto world to name the coins after a dog. The dog-named coins are heavily popular. Thus, when starting a company to support MMA fighters, the Miami-based company took inspiration from none other than Joe Rogan’s dog. The theme song and inspiration behind MRI is Joe Rogan’s dog, Marshall.

Joe Rogan is a highly respected figure in the MMA space and a big name in the world. Thus, it was a smart idea for MRI to enter the sphere with such a name.

With Jorge Masvidal joining forces with the company, it is clear that MRI is making big moves.
