I can’t even begin to explain how busy I’ve been lately. I have been up late, as usual, and decided to create a new website to help fighters get sponsors for their fights. I’m working on it now, but then my daughter Olivia made some noises in her room. I went in and she was [...]

Dom Steeles Comment
Posted by Jason Appleton on July 18th, 2010
DOM STEELE: Look, I know to the general public that doesn’t know what a silly ass Dom is, you were probably offended by Dom’s comment. I’m not condoning it. It was in bad taste and bad timing. I know he is deeply sorry and wanted to apologize immediately after but Megan (as instructed before the [...]

2 Comments »Two Weeks Until Fight Night
Posted by Jason Appleton on July 4th, 2010
It’s two weeks until fight night and all I can say is I’m drained of all life force.
Between putting together the TV deal, trying to muster last minute sponsors, preparing the Big Show Gym and trying to get at least the MMA side of the gym open so guys can begin training there, the permits, [...]

Bowling Won – Bennett Signed – Fighters Guard Terminated
Posted by Jason Appleton on May 26th, 2010
So Roger Bowling of course, won his Strikeforce debut and impressed the world with such an aggressive and accurate domination of Bobby Voelker. I will say though, Bobby Voelker was made of pure steel and from I’ve seen and by what Roger told me, he is a hell of a nice guy. If things don’t [...]

We are preparing to make announcements for national live TV broadcasts, however, we need to get our sponsorship sales team in order prior to this.
If you have the contacts and relationship building ability to land national sponsorships of [...]
What a week.
Posted by Jason Appleton on May 14th, 2010
So much has happened this week.
The May 15th event was canceled primarily because of a scheduling conflict with Belterra that originated from the April show. We are going to cut down on the number of shows we have at Belterra and are going to focus on selling out less shows instead of selling half the [...]
