Hellboy's vt-shorts

Is BadBoy back in business or were Joachim Hansen's shorts just a blast from the past. Where can I get the ones he wore in his Dream 3 fight? Thanks!

I see Bad Boy every once in a while as someones sponsor so im sure he just had black shorts with the Bad Boy logo put on it. Im sure they were custom made for him but they wouldnt be hard to replicate

What fad? Bad Boy has been with MMA from the beginning, sponsoring the likes of Vitor Belfort, Mark Coleman, Ricardo Arona, Mark Kerr, Minotauro, Macaco, Rickson Gracie, Wallid Ismail, Dean Lister, Bob Sapp, Jerome LeBanner, Godoi, etc....

LeBanner is still on the team, and they just signed Lyoto "The Dragon" Machida and Mauricio "Shogun" Rua. Check out BAD BOY.

Hansen probably bought those shorts in Brazil - the ORIGINAL Bad Boy Vale Tudo Shorts are still sold in Brazil, where the manufacturer is. Casca Grossa was purchasing the shorts through a third party who no longer has the license to sell Bad Boy in the USA. Now, Bad Boy is planning to re-release the original design and a new, longer version in the USA through their new website.

The USA tried to kill Bad Boy, but couldn't. Bad Boy lived on, just like MMA; in other countries, in back alleys and on the streets. Every fighter is a Bad Boy at heart. That's why Bad Boy is more than a fad with MMA.

Didn't Bad Boy originate as a skate company (Life's a Beach) or something in the 80s?

Since when did Bad Boy become a fad?

My bad - looks like Hellboy was sponsored by Bad Boy Japan.
