Those that know me, know that Im usually selfish, anti-social, slick tongued, and a complete introvert.... Many ask me why I post inspirational / positive statuses daily, or even plenty ask why I do not monetize KnockoutLounge or try to benefit from it. While I may be selfish, those that know me, know I will also bend over backwards should I really be needed... Im here to make a difference, and without saying names in the MMA community, some have definitely informed me that I have been doing just that. Im proud of what I do, and Im proud of the people around me, and the people I support. I am also grateful for everyone that has been around me through it all. ---- Quick Shout Outs because Im in a cheery mood today! --- Tom DeBlass - Jerseys own. Inspirational man, and all around good person. He motivates me to start the day off on a good foot! #ocbjj J.a. Dudley - My first NJ fighter Ive worked with. ALWAYS down to support, and even had shouted me out and placed my logo on his shorts during a fight - just for supporting him. Another great individual! #IR62 Peter Garncarz/William Pepe - My two best friends. Again, these guys know how I am - Im a bit of a pain in the ass -- but no matter what, they will be there f or me in a heartbeat! Lisa Hudson Webb - Was my right-hand lady when I started KnockoutLounge. Hour long phone convos, helping me find fighters to support (and helping me through the process even when I shouldve been doing things myself). Jeff Meyer / TuffnUff Rona - I cant forget the Tuff N Uff guys. I sent an email a while back asking if I can help them out and write for them. They instantly agreed and have always supported what I do just as I support them (and theyre much more prestigious than I! Check them out, the longest running, and greatest ammy promotion on the planet! Jeff McConnell - Another one of us struggling writers that aims to help others. Always gives a shout out to me when hes posting his thank yous - so the favor is returned buddy!! Teejay Britton - I was sent an email to connect with this man as he was fighting for Tuff N Uff - instantly we hit it off and have (had? lol) plans to work together. He preaches, helps his youth-community, and is a great athlete - another AMAZING human being. #God1st Sam Wilson - This woman is like my MMA-Mom. She will answer me at the drop of a hat, even when I am thoroughly annoying. She pushes me to continue writing and supports whatever I do. She IS the reason I got involved so much in womens MMA (so Im sure all the women Ive helped out also thank her!!) Geo Thomson Art - This man has been KnockoutLounges first and generally only partner since day 1. We made the introduction by sharing Knockout in our names, and have been working together ever since. He is a brilliant artist, and although hes rarely available because hes a big-shot, he makes a point to communicate with me on whatever direction our team is headed. Make sure you follow UFC Knockout Art!! Trap Gambino / Ashlee MobWife Gambino - A great couple in MMA. MADE Connected. Not Affiliated. is here to support MMA and they continue to keep me in the loop of whats happening. Cant wait for Ashlee to make her MMA debut! Im truly grateful for you all... and plenty others I am positively sure Ive missed. You are all great. You are all why I do this. #ThinkPositiveBePositive
