Why not. I think it could be good.

Too risky to buy IFL. Not much stability behind buying it especially with the success of UFC, and the premiere of Affliction.

Why would he buy the IFL?

Why would he want to deal with a board of directors, stockholders, the SEC and the massive piles of debt that come with the IFL?

The IFL brand name isn't worth shit. Hell, Punishment Athletics is probably better known. It would be MUCH cheaper for him to start a new league from scratch. He could call it Punishment Fighting Championships or some such thing and hold local events in Huntington Beach.

Not to mention she could buy it with change she found in her couch cushions.

Jenna is fucking loaded.

I'd like to think that tito is a smarter buisness man, than to buy a company that's losing money hand over fist including over 20 million last year

No, tito should beat Machidas ass and a few more top LHWs, then open up a few gyms.
