The ranting, threat's and of course...all of his criminal history coming to light can not be good news to any current/future client's or investor's. Randy Couture is one of most beloved athlete's in this sport. Todd Beard see's fit to verbaly spar with Mrs. Couture and threaten her well being. Who in their right mind would further associate themselves with him and feel good about it? Sure as hell not me. I will not pay a dime for anything Affliction related. I never have and thanks to Ol' Dirty Beard, I never will. Todd Beard is going to drive Affliction MMA straight into the dirt.

But in light of this latest drama and the revelation of his violent criminal history, this guy is definitely mentally unstable and dangerous. Unfortunately, the Coutures made a really bad busniess decision. When you do busniess with convicted felons things like this or worse are bound to happen.

Prior criminal history wouldn't be enough to obtain the order. What were the specific things he did to harass her? What did he do in his "campaign of terror?" The declaration should spell this out.

Realistically, this seems to be the biggest problem with the promotions that aim to compete with the UFC: Too many loose nuts running the show. First Gary & Jared Shaw and now this Beard guy?
