You're obviously not Mayhem Miller, because the last brand he would come to the defense of is Throwdown. He is one of many who felt slighted by them in the past.

Throwdown is fine. I order new bumper pads for our cage last week from them. They make the best cage in the business.

Throwdown should just stick to making cages and their cage pads. They are doing too much at one time and seems like they are eitehr getting low on funding or not enough people to help run that company.

Their brand manager walked out on them. Their Canadian distributor dropped them. They seem to be having trouble holding onto those who are already there to help.
