The Tapout crew returned for their season premiere show last night on Versus. Good to see Mask, Punkass and SkySkrape again, they always amuse me and they’re great for the world of mixed martial arts. They went from selling t-shirts out of the back of a van to one of the largest MMA sponsors and clothing distributors in the world. The success definitely didn’t go to their heads, they still love MMA and they’re always out there looking for young talent to help catch a break in the business. Last night’s show featured two rising stars from The Pit in San Luis Obispo, CA by the name of Chris Lighty (former K-1 fighter) and Glover Texeira. Both men were successful in their fights and the show was enjoyable as always!
I also managed to find a handful of people I went to high school with on Facebook and it was nice to see where they wound up in this crazy world. I was happy to see that the majority of them are married with a family. All my best to all of them.
