    You fellas at GQ need to start doing more work on MMA/UFC content at least as much as you do with NBA, NFL, MLB etc, there is a gold mine of people, fights, content that's still untapped, you only scratch the surface, if I was running a sports magazine business I would start banking on mma content because it will soon be the biggest sport in the world literally every single country will have their own UFC soon and if you don't hop on that you'll miss out. I don't think I've seen recently a UFC champion on one of your covers, correct me if im mistaken.

      He’s introducing casuals to MMA. He’s the perfect guy to do it, because he can relate to the casuals and they can relate to him. A die hard fan would be focusing on stuff we would understand, but casuals wouldn’t. I totally disagree with you on this. It’s kind of a naive and egotistical take if I’m being honest.
