They may help promote the sport but they are an embarrassment to the sport. They make MMA fans and fighters look like a bunch of queers playing grab ass.

What have YOU done for fighters? How have you helped the sport? Besides of having a sherdog yellow belt.
WOW SUPER PWNED!!!!!!!

When will some of you asshats learn that people arent always exactly how they seem on tv? Yes the theatrics are goofy, but guess what, its how they got themselves noticed when they sold shirts in a van. AND guess what else, it WORKED. I am going to go out on a limb and guess you have never actually MET them? Well I have and they are all really chill dudes. They bring alot to the sport not only by spornsoring fighters so they can work less and train more but their clothing line is sold in all kinds of stores thus bringing MMA to your local mall. I fail to see a problem, if you don't like how they act DON'T WATCH. That is why you have a remote controll.

I haven't seen a TapouT shirt at the gym since that show started.

On the episode of that show I watched, a fighter nicknamed Sunshine was fighting someone and Mask said "Well, his opponent's got a TapouT tattoo, so you know he's real tough."

You may not agree with the way they have chosen to market themselves, but it's made them a lot of money and they've helped a lot of fighters out in the process. Do they look ridiculous? Sure they do. I don't think they'd disagree with you if you told them that. Unless they're asking you to dress like them and go to the prom who gives a fuck?

You guys are hating because you don't understand their look. Their looks don't have anything inheritantly bad or unintelligent about them.
