TapouT co-founder dies

A very sad story in the MMA world, as TapouT's co-founder, Charles (Mask) Lewis, died in a car accident Wednesday. The TapouT guys are pretty well-liked by almost everyone in the MMA community, especially since those are guys that truly loved the sport. He will be missed.

Here's the full story.

And here's a great story on TapouT by friend of the blog, Kelly Crigger, for Fight Magazine. It's a few months old, but it is a great primer if you aren't familiar with the clothing company and the guys behind it.
