Do the Tapout guys drive you crazy?
Seriously what the hell have these guys done for the sport besides sponsor way back in 99 and be the first MMA clothing brand?
They have come a long way I respect that but when I watch the show I forget about all that and I want to punch a whole in the wall they drive me crazy. I watched only one because I couldn't withstand the punishment of watching another one. I saw one where they went to AKA with Bob Cook a decent fighter frm UFC 24 however now a manager of this punk named Matt Major. That Mask guy first off is a goof in Tapout I would love to see him get shot if he walked in Harlem speaking the way he does. "Yea Matt Major!" I found it funny when he called Matt Major a future UFC champion then we see Major fight and he can't finish some fat old black guy who gassed badly. In fact the black guy wooped him in the first round.
And that flying knee by Major-well executed. Punkass seemed like an okay guy since he was quiet and actually knew what he was talking about. Skyskrape is just a moron wearing a fake wig and those tight ass jeans I doubt he knows what is going on in the sport.
I saw a preview of the won where they sponsor Charuto since I watched WEC 29 on Versus they had commercials. But I refuse to watch the garbage any more. And the commercial didn't change my thoughts either.
Who else hates Tapout? I also find that most people that wear Tapout outside of MMA act like they can fight or are posers.

I can't stand their show either, but I respect the risk they took and the fact that now they are trying to cash in.

I have a great idea.... Instead of whining on the net about these guys, go meet them face to face and tell them how bad they are. Or even easier since you most likely would never do that. DON"T WATCH THE SHOW  If you don't like it, don't watch it. What have they done?
Personally, I like the show. I think it is good to see there are some grassroots type sponsors out there still. If they didn't do what they do on the level they show on the show, many fighters would not get a chance in the big time. I do think they are goofy as hell and a bit annoying, but I don't come online to complain about it. If they get to be too much, I turn the channel

Very Good post, I do agree that 2 out of the three are quite annoying but the show does have some good points, ehh if they get too annoying I just use the trust remote

I like the show personally, but i HATE TapouT. Every gay Bro around here wears that shit and it's way ******* annoying. I hate the brand, enjoy the show. The guys are kind of annoying but the show IS about Mixed Martial Arts(which I approve of)

Isn't that what the guy said? He said he isn't watching it because of those guys. I don't see what the big deal is with someone coming online and seeing if others feel the same way as they do.

And the sick cycle continues. But yeah they're pretty annoying. Mostly when they yell. Like when they called Matt Hughes and all you heard for 30 seconds was, "MATT HUGHES!!!! MATT HUGHES!!!! MATT!!!! MATT!!! HUGHES!!!! HUGHES!!!" That shit gets old but other than that it's pretty cool seeing these up and coming fighters. The most recent one with Cowboy from Duane Ludwig's Gym was cool. That guy Cowboy has some serious potential especially if he gets down to 155.

Are you serious? I said I don't watch the show after that and try not too. And if I ever did meet them I would spread my thoughts to their face.

this is such a typical & cliche response. "why don't you tell them that to their face?!?". utterly ridiculous. the show sucks, & those cats act like their the icp of mma. they deserved to be dogged imo. and this is a forum about mma, so this topic is worth bringing up. getting tough guy about it is pointless. AdRath hit the nail on the head w/ his response.
and don't bother wasting your time neg repping me, i could give 2 shits about a meaningless point system. whatever makes ya happy tho.
