Re: MMA Collectors
Tuesday, Aug 19 I spent 4 hours at the UFC fighter hotel in Tulsa, OK.
Had a blast!
I used a blue, fine pt Bic "Mark-it" marker. I liked how it looked compared to the blue Sharpie.
(contrast the Tom Niinimäki signature in blue Sharpie on Benson's neck to the rest)
"Stoneface" Niinimäki was my 1st autograph last night & I quickly made the change to the Bic.
The Bic was slightly used so it was a bit more broad.
I recorded footage for a vblog I'll be combining & uploading to my YouTube channel.
There is another stack of signed Topps cards I'll show in my YouTube recap at some point of:
Ben Saunders, Thales Leites, Mike Pyle, Rafael Dos Anjos, Francis Carmont, & Max Halloway
There are only 7 fighters on this fight card with Topps cards so that's why I was sure to get the 8x10 done up.
RIGHT NOW I DO NOT KNOW WHAT, IF ANYTHING, IS FOR TRADE.
(I'll create another post here next week of my extras)
16 signatures on the 8X10 from top down, left to right:
Thales Leites, Chas Skelly (hard to see in upper right corner)
Ben Saunders, Aaron Phillips, Rafael dos Anjos
Tom Niinimäki, Wilson Reis, Alex Garcia
Clay Collard, Beneil Dariush
Valmir Lazaro, Joby Sanchez
Francis Carmont, Max Holloway, James Vick, & Mike Pyle
*I didn't see Jordan Mein, Tony Martin, Matt Hobar, & Chris Heatherly; I saw but didn't get Neil Magny (got in the elevator before I could catch up to him)

I didn't get Benson on my 8X10 because I wanted these done!

Re: MMA Collectors
Awesome haul Mr. DK! Love seeing the 'ttm prince' rack some goods ip! Looking forward to hearing some of the stories especially of our BFF Benson.
Re: MMA Collectors
YEAH! My Rashad TUF came in today! Should know my PO is a day or two slower than most.
Re: MMA Collectors
Crud!
I was looking fwd to posting a vlog of my day graphing but when I CUT/PASTE'd the files from my iPhone to a Flash Drive
I had 14 short videos I was going to combine into 1 vlog & post on my YouTube channel BUUUUUT...
All the .mov files I didn't preview before the move transferred as thumbnail images ONLY!
SO... I only have this 1 clip from the fighter hotel! (the only file I previewed before the CUT/PASTE)
If only I had done COPY!!/PASTE...
Ah well, wasn't meant to be...

Re: MMA Collectors
Being at the fighter hotel is always the best. Congratulations on all the goodies David!
Kind of random that you're in Oklahoma though? Are you there purely for the UFC? I judge fights in Sept, Oct and November, so I have plenty to go. I also have pictures coming for 9 guys. It's been forever since I've sent out any TTM.

I am in Fort Smith, AR this week until Friday PM for ePlan software training.
Great timing to have the UFC 2 hrs away so I made the trip there on Tuesday to graph.
