ZxcFight- Are you asking if there are any autographs? Yes, all of the auctions but one (the Forrest Griffing and Dan Henderson prints by Evan Shoman) have autographed shirts, shorts, or gloves.

Bas Rutten, Matt Hughes, MFS, Jeff Monson, MMA artist and sherdogger Evan Shoman, Clay Guida and Premier Fighter all sent me some awesome stuff and I just listed the items on Ebay. 100% of the proceeds from these auctions will go to fight MS! Take a look and make a bid- you can get some great items for your collection and do a good deed at the same time. Thanks again to all those listed above for their outstanding generosity!

If my link doesn't work, you can simply "Search by Seller" on Ebay under "CrushCo".


Thanks for bidding!

*** ALL OF THE AUCTIONS NOW SHIP TO CANADA! Sorry for the oversight, guys.

*** UPDATE: JEFF MONSON sent in an autographed shirt which has been added to the auctions!


*** UPDATE: PRICE DROP. I've lowered the minimum/reserve price on a couple of the auctions to give the bidding a kick start. There are far worse things than giving $15 to charity- especially when you're getting something great back in return! Check it out and feel free to give me a bump. Being stickied has really paid off, but I've noticed a surge in views after each time this thread makes it to the main page.

THANKS!
I think its great that you're doin that bro...I'm for sure gonna place a bid.. wish me luck..

Less than 2 hours left! If anyone's even awake right now, it's your last chance to steal these auctions! Thanks to everyone who bid and helped out those with MS.

Between my two sets of auctions and my "regular" fund raising efforts, I managed to raise around $2200. I'm really pleased, as I haven't done the auctions before and usually only muster up about $600-700 from family and friends. Thanks again to everyone who helped through bidding, supporting posts, ttt's, and PM's. I really appreciate it all, and a good amount of money and attention was raised for the sufferers of Multiple Sclerosis. Good news is that the leading doctors/researchers predict a very big breakthrough and possibly a cure in the next five years. Without the help of people like Sherdoggers and the many fighters and individuals who donated items for these auctions, that might not be a possibility. Interesting note, like much research, the findings of MS research will likely have many other applications. One notable application of new treatments and cures for MS will be for the curing and reversing of paralysis, as the injuries sustained in paralyzing accidents have similar attributes to those with MS.

April (or Ahhhpril, if you're GSP) of next year, look out for another round of MMA Auctions- hopefully we'll raise even more the second time around!

w00t! I got the Clay Guida shorts and print. Pretty happy, wish there had been other auto stuff than Matt Hughes(not a fan...).

w00t!

I got the two prints of Forrest Griffin and Dan Henderson.

Hendo's coming to Houston later this year and I'll see if he can autograph the print before I frame it.
