See that's my disagreement. I think like Rob Tapout as a whole should be in. They were a HuGE part of UFC growing based on their guerrilla marketing campaigns together. Mask is a good representation of that.

And yeah, Evan should be in. Though are people who should be in before both Tapout/Mask and Tanner.

Which is exactly why he is in. Was he integral to any MMA fights or in the carving of the sports rules? No. Was he integral to UFC advancing as a company? Yes. Creating a niche clothing style and aggressive branding played massive roles in reaching their TA demographic, and making the sport a trend to watch and be involved in. That is why they get consistant PPV buys almost regardless of the fighters on the card.

It may sound like the downside to MMA, those kind of fans, but they are what generate the growth to the mainstream audience, which generates higher revenue, which means fighters get paid more, exposure is much wider and more instant and being an MMA fighter is more likely to put bread on the table at any level.

Why doesn't it shock me that you DON'T get this?
