And you are really cool too.
I got a TApOut sweat. A UFC beanie. A 10th Anniversary Pride JAcket from Japan. A Gomi shirt from Pride 33. I don't fight at all. I am a fan. Big whoop, TAPOUT is/are cool.

I dont know about that, they probably piggy back off the growth of the sport. But they do sponser fighters in a market that is hesistant.

I dont see any fortune 500 companies jumping at sponsering any MMA fighter When Nike jumps on the MMA bandwagon MMA will be truly mainstream!

How they look or act seems to have no negative effects on the sport and it certainly doesn't for their business. The show isn't bad either. They find fighters to sponsor, help them get noticed promote their business all while having fun while doing it. If u can be successful without having to be Mr. Serious all the time especially doing it on pretty much your own terms that is a great thing regardless of what people think. I sure as hell would love to be in there position. Plus they struggled for a while to get where they are.

They've helped fighters for years. Look past their outfits and please understand that the gist of their show is to help up and coming fighters. As far as I'm concerned, they're heroes in MMA.
