I’ve never been one to pull any punches (pun intended…) but I think that most people agree with my opinionated views on this side of the industry. We all know by now that I am more interested in the business side of the MMA Market and more importantly the apparel and gear.
Last night amidst one of the busiest weekend’s combat sports has seen all year Brock Lesnar is the hot topic of discussion.

Well it’s that time of year again. 2011 will soon be just a memory, so the wistful staff at MMASucka decided to look back longingly at the year that was in MMA and give out our own Sucka Awards to those that were on top of the MMA world this year.
