Perhaps next time someone could ask Karo to speak into the mouth piece.

Luke,

Excellent interview with Karo. Thanks for asking some tough questions. Meanwhile, Razor has quite a way of not answering questions.

Why don’t you think its a good idea for Affliction to pick up IFL fighters? Who else should they be using to supplement their roster? It seems to me that relative to their options, and considering that they DO need to bring in more fighters, former IFL guys are a great option.

Meanwhile I DO wish they would pick up some females.

Love all the phone calls. Too many shows don’t take enough calls.

It was good to hear your opinions on TapOut. I remember when you were pretty skeptical when they were getting started back in the first AGS episodes.
