Tapout is a clothing manufacturer that is oriented towards the "MMA community". People wear shirts with thier logo, and put stickers on the rear windows of thier cars and trucks.

...here's what makes me wonder though...

...tapping out is giving up or losing a match. Does that mean all those people are walking/driving around with "Loser" on their back/car?

"that show is so fucking lame. The show cheapens the sport of MMA. They are all a fucking joke, and make mma look like a fucking pro wrestling circus event. Its bullshit."

Mixed Martial Arts. Btw for anyone who thinks Jiu Juitsu is BS, how about this.
My uncle who is ~280, 6' construction worker easily did a cop hold (grab wrist, turn around behind your back) on me, 145lb. His grip is extremely strong and I couldn't get out of it (even tho i'm not weak at all). So after he let me go, my twin brother, (140lb 1 year training in Brazilian JJ and 2 yrs wrestling) jumped on his back and did a rear naked choke. My brute uncle couldn't do anything and he was 2 seconds away from passing out when my bro let him go :D

well if you wrap your arm (not arms) then you would be unsuccessful. It's impossible to choke out anyone with 1 arm (all the defendant has to do is grab that arm with free hand), unless you are 3 times stronger and the other person doesn't resist.

I'm assuming you are talking to me. I am only telling you what my bro taught me. BJJ is a solid technique. Also, unlike your brother who has watched Enter the Dragon DVD (which shows technique totally different from what Bruce Lee really taught, because Bruce Lee was a good movie maker and knew how to entertain people), my brother has fought in 5 local MMA fights (3 wins 2 losses) http://www.nwgrappling.com/mes...Name=Bogdan%20Bozhinov
