Hey, there's TONS of money to be made in MMA...for Dana White...and ESPN...and Fox...and all the sponsors. 

Seriously, I've trained with quite a few pro fighters and let's just say it's about as hard to have a lucrative career in fighting as it is in baseball, football, basketball, or entertainment for that matter. Vlade Matsushenko had some top level UFC fights (he was on Andre Arlovski's highlight reel getting kicked in the face), and a couple years later I rolled with him at a gym in El Segundo (he hyperextended my elbow...and I was lucky to escape with that, the guy was a monster!). And a year later, he was teaching classes to pay the bills.

When I was a member at UFC Gym (the fitness/MMA chain), Krzysztof Soszynski was managing and teaching there. And the vets from The Utimate Fighter  were ubiquitous all over SoCal. Teaching, trying to act or do stunts, working odd jobs, waiting tables...just like anyone else in the entertainment business. And like modeling, the age limitation is a brick wall...even more so, sadly.

Trackdawg you are a true Renaissance man!

Oh honey. You'd see dozens in any bar in South Boston or Quincy or Revere any day of the week that would make John look like Alistair Cooke.

Here in Wisconsin, some bars open at 7 am, allegedly for guys who are coming off of 3rd shift and just need a couple of beers to wind down after work!

OH MY GOD I CANNOT STAND THIS ASSHOLE SHAEEDA LEAVE HIM LEAVE HIM NOW. 

I'm spluttering. I'm just emitting inarticulate squawking and strangled screams. I hate this rotting pile donkey balls so fucking much. 

And now he's going to treat Shaeeda like crap in front of his children. So they'll know how to treat her too.
