I have seen them on racks at Dillard's at a mall and I have never even seen someone even at the racks that sell the clothes. It just doesn't add up to me. Hopefully they have something though because I will be there. "300k for timmy probably 100+ for Andrei " Tanner...that number for Andrei is probably short by about 400. About the same price here.

As the first post said I have no idea how they're going to pay for this, josh barnett, andrei arlovski, fedor, timmy, matt lindland, and ben rothwell? This looks like an awesome card but how in the hell can they pay for this 2 mil for fedor 300k for timmy probably 100+ for Andrei and Joshy. there digging themselves a serious hole. Did they not learn anything from the Bodogs or the M-1's? Babalu is also rumored to be taking on Mike Whitehead.

A few weeks ago I was in the grocery store and I saw some 40-ish year old lady wearing tapout camo board shorts. I nearly broke my neck doing a double take.
