Haole - lol @ 'cagefighter'



in a single swoop of his pen on a memo The Dana just made that company worth nothing



All they had was UFC exposure, that was their entire business


 Apparently they have Wal Mart shelf space, and evidently that's worth enough to get upset about.

22

walmart is the biggest retailer for practically everything

haole is a fat fucking loser

23

nah cage fighter sucks along with 99% of all "fighter" clothes. but getting into walmart is HUGE. like your stomach.

24

Is there anyone here with even an iota of business sense? The UFC lost a bid to have their clothing carried by Wal Mart so in 'retaliation' they refused to help promote the winner of that bid. Good for the UFC for not allowing themselves to be used as a catalyst for others' success.

25

a catalyst for others' success??? are they starting an mma org or something?

LOL jesus

its a fuckiing clothing company that sponsors many of zuffas highest profile fighters. i thought blaf didnt want to be in the t shirt business?

26

One word, Shiloh. Affliction.

27

But even if they weren't planning on starting an org, why should the UFC bend over and be the free advertising bitch for the company that won the rights to sell its product in a world-wide chain of stores?

i really dont understand what you mean. how is the ufc cagefighters' bitch? they are different entities entirely. thats like tillys banning all brands in their store except tillys own. are we soon to have only zuffa everything owned? i dont get why zuffa would even do it. kinda stupid. they dont have to be the ONLY game in town for EVERYTHING. especially considering a ton of the fighters on their roster are sponsored by them. petty, greedy, short-sighted. sponsors may think long and hard about paying fighters if they can expect this.

Shiloh, do you remember the reason why Zuffa bumped Sherdog and FCF from getting press passes a few years ago? Same reason.

Logging off for now. Peace.

 Because its bad business to piss everyone off and isolate yourself in an industry.  That may work while you're on top, but should things ever change, people remember these things.
