Default A little bit of a rant

Hey guys,
I know i havent been here very long, but i've gotta voice something.
Don't get me wrong, i love the fact that MMA is getting bigger in the UK, its great for the sport and for real fans like everyone here but MMA ISNT a fashion, which is what i have noticed it becoming over the last few months.

I now feel like a poser wearing my tap out t-shirt out or in the gym as so many silly little chavs or emos or any other form of mislead youth are now running round wearing 'our' clothes.

Please don't think im some idiot moaning for no reason, but cage fighting and mma is getting enough bad press about it being barbaric at the moment, without lil johnny no job running around wearing his tapout tee thinking it makes him hard and getting into silly street scrap giving 'our' beloved sport a bad name.

Someone tell me if im being stupid, but the hours i spend in the gym, training, sparring, staying up till 3am to watch fights, studying fights to learn etc.... is me earning the right to wear my venum shorts at the gym, or my tapout hat out in the street.

Anyways i hope i haven't ranted on overly, or made a point of something that isn't there. Let me know your thoughts
