I just flat out don’t like this guy. Could he lie anymore?
Say what you want about the UFC, but they just didn’t wake up one morning and say “Let’s ban Affliction as as sponsor today.” There may have been some truth in regards to the Randy debacle, but the bottom line is that they wanted to start being a promoter, so they got banned. AND by EliteXC as well.
Also, as much as I really dislike Tito, I highly doubt even he would start running his mouth about talks and/or a contract without there being some truth to it.

By this time next year I doubt there will even be an Affliction promotion.

huh?
This guy is the epitome of megalomaniac…so dude was a fighter too?…in TJ? WTF?
Watching this guy speak is like watching Bill Clinton speak…if this were a polygraph I would have PTSD from all of the buzzers going off.
Just go print some more horrible shirts and shut up already. You swindled money from some rich jerkoffs, congratulations…but you are no promoter.
Affliction reminds me of a dude who makes $35K a year but borrows $50K to throw a big wedding. One big day, in debt for life.
Bye Bye.
