I always had trouble figuring out the year of those promo cards… .typically try to base the year on the fight record.
I’ve seen him do signings at like 3 regional events , he was probably paid by the promotion, but he was super cool all 3 times. Back in 2008 there was a punishment sale and I pull up to the warehouse and Tito was working along the people handing out t shirts and all sorts of stuff for dirt cheap. All my experiences with him were before 2012 though. Ive only seen him once since then at a Bellator meet n greet about 2014ish. He is good with fans because he loves the attention, but in my experience he was genuine. I remember him saying on Howard Stern show back in the day that someone shunned him for an autograph as a kid, and that he will never let a kid feel that feeling. I wish I remembered which celebrity. It was when he was dating Jenna, they were on Howard’s show
Those are badass!!!
this thread is like a history lesson
I still want to make a memorabilia thread. Like Fight gear, autographs, cards, anything fight related : show and tell
Maybe I’ll start one with some pairs of my gloves. I bet some people have some really cool stuff. And I know a lot of people lurk still. Maybe they’ll post their fight gloves or shorts
nah man keep this thread going I like the cards and stuff yall showing
BJs sister sent me 2 autographed photos years ago. I auctioned one off on the UG for a cancer charity
Wish they never got rid of the memorabilia ground… some amazing historic items were showcased in those threads
I really liked how Pride distributed their promo cards… From what I heard, you had to attend and event to get a certain card and receive it by mail or from a certain shop. Promo # 6 is quite rare. Aoki being Promo # 10 is cool as well.
If anyone has any of the 9 Price motion cards… hit me up!
Those are so cool
One of my favorite pieces is this Gracie sweatshirt I won from NicktheTooth, on the UG in like 2012. It was signed by Rener, Ryron and Rorion…since then I’ve had Kron and Royce sign it.
I’ve been waiting 24 hours to see if anybody would pick up on the irony of this post yet… anyone?
Oh,I’m well aware of Bradu & his Bloodline sketches.Oh,and I’m also aware of that guy with the massive forehead that I called 5-head.His screen name was Disciple Dojo & he had cards or at least drawings that looked like cards.

Of course you’re going to pick it up Cro, your like a 6th year senior here…
@bradu is the LeRoy Neiman of mma…
Not anytime soon. Give them to your son and wait 50 years
True, unless there’s some sort of scarcity that drives these up in value like the UFC goes under I don’t see how you can make a profit if that’s your modus operandi
Post them in the memorabilia thread!
