"Eric Shapiro: A lot of guys in the UFC including yourself are sponsored by Xyience. Are they still treating you well?

Sean Sherk: Oh no, I’m not sponsored by them anymore. I used to be but they stiffed me a bunch of money. They stiff everybody. A lot of people are leaving them."

Looks like those inflated numbers of Xyience sponsorships were BS cause they never got paid out.

impossible!

Interesting... maybe they aren't seeing the type of returns on the investments that they expected.

Still pretty shitty, though. I know a lot of fighters rely heavily on sponsors and Xyience is a major one

I don't know about the other fighters, but I'm not going shed a single tear because a roided up CHEATER got cheated.

Its so overpriced that they should be able to afford to pay their fighters!

Dirty D · 10-22-2007, 10:54 AM

I always heard their supps were shit

There was a fighter who posted on the UG on mma.tv about how Xyience wouldn't even pay him $200 after a UFC fight.

Couldn't remember who it was.

Why wouldn't they drop Sherk? He got caught for steroids. How bad would it look if sherk had a xyience shirt on at his hearings lol. Cheaters need to be punished.

Have you guys read up on the shady dealings of Xyience?

The company is run by crooks, I've been waiting patiently for some fighters to come forward with these kindss of statements. The guys who run xyience have a long history of stealing investors money and basically cheating everyone they can.

If I can find the article again, I'll post it ... It's a very revealing look into the company.
