Meet Christopher Bussey | XKO Co-Owner

We had the good fortune of connecting with Christopher Bussey and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Christopher, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
Its what we do. Our family has been promoting various live events since 1991. We have learned all aspects including marketing, ticketing, staff management, venue negotiations, setup/teardown, graphics, video productions and Pay Per View.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
We are committed to fostering the growth of mixed martial arts and providing quality entertainment for MMA and sports fans worldwide. Xtreme Knockout is the #1 MMA and Muay Thai Promotion in Texas!
We are a family owned and operated business. – Professional Cage Fights and the top Professional Mixed Martial Arts fighters in Texas.
Xtreme Knockout / Back Alley Promotions has produced over 1,000 “live” events, including Professional Championship Wrestling (PCW) which was televised weekly for 3 years on UPN channel 21, featured on MTV, and the catalyst for a reality show “The Bussey Bunch” for TLC and Discovery Channel.
Past events have had in attendance, NFL Star Ladainian Tomlinson, Movie Star “Debo” Tommy Lister, UFC Champion Johny Hendricks, Dallas Cowboys Legend Randy White, UFC Legend Chuck Liddell, UFC Hall of Famer Randy Couture, World Champion Boxers Anthony & Andre Dirrell, Dallas Cowboys Miles Austin, “Fast N Loud” TV Stars Christie Brimberry & Mike Coy, plus many more!
With the recent launch of XKO’s 24/7 on demand TV network (XKO.TV or XTREMEKNOCKOUT.TV) featuring an extensive video library of the events, fights, behind the scenes footage and more as well as the success of building young talent Xtreme Knockout continues to lead the way the Texas Mixed Martial Arts scene.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
DFW is brimming with wonderful events, restaurants and places to see. Definitely we would visit Texas Live in Arlington for some food and drinks, Maybe a Dallas Mavericks game and spend the night at The Statler Hotel in Dallas for a rooftop afterparty. A tour of Cowboys stadium or take the kids to Six Flags over Texas. For a little “country” experience we would visit the Stockyards and Billy Bobs in Fort Worth for some Texas history and music.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
My family
