"MMAFA.tv has learned from sources close to Bellator Fighting Championship that the promotion is no longer allowing its fighters to receive sponsorship from poker sites and Condom Depot. Sources indicated that the move was requested, if not necessitated, by the MTV2 network in an effort to keep their station more suitable for teenagers and young adults."

Im not up to date on all the MTV channels, is MTV2 for younger people and MTV(1) for older? Cause im pretty sure the Jersey Shore shit or that new underage kids doing drugs and partying show is worse than seeing FullTilt.com and CondomDepot advertising.
Can kind of understand the Condom Depot one... kinda.
But the poker one? Poker is on TV every day now, and adds for poker site are everywhere. I don't know how they feel they are protecting anyone by not letting their fighters be sponsored by poker sites.
And I always thought the Condom Depot ads on the fighters ass were hilarious. I'd honestly choose a better location.
This is where MTV draws the line? LOL
If there are anyone that should watch condom ads it is teenagers and young adults :p

Yeah you promote that, And there goes all thier TEEN mom shows.
LOL @ MTV flexing some sort of Disney morality.
I assume it's all about keeping somebody happy though, so I'm wondering which MTV sponsor this makes happy.
Seems very hypocritical of MTV given how heavily they run shows like Jersey Shore, Real World, Teen Mom, and Skins. Maybe MTV2 is geared towards a younger audience but if that's the case then the probably shouldn't have the Lingerie Football League or the American Pie movies on their station.
So MTV is pretty much costing fighters money for no real reason.
SPANKY'S is THE original mma sponsor.
10er gonna 10
I believe that Vitamins & Minerals were before Spanky`s.A case could be made for Red Nose & HCK also.
Exposing Teens to condoms can only cause irreparable harm.
ZugZug - Condom Depot is like THE original mma sponsor.
You can't treat royalty like that.
fucking lol
qft. ALL HAIL CONDOM DEPOT!

Most likely Disney will figure out upcoming Bellator events are tentatively scheduled to be be hosted at a number of small casinos and pull the plug on these venues as well. Very hypocritical otherwise.
