2nd up will be another BODOG Veteran and  'PrimeTime Fighter', Dan Hornbuckle. We're constantly amazed at Dan's schedule as week after week he can be found at premier Jui Jitsu tournaments or fighting in rings and cages around the world.  Dan's next Bodgo match is November 24th  in Evansville, Indiana.  No one has a good reason to miss this one!

Wade Choate ( 12-7),  out of the Silverback's Team (Canton, IL), recently became the Cage Rage Champion at 145 lbs.  While we're always excited to see 'PrimeTime Fighters' do well, we're especially appreciative of those Champions who not only fight and train in our gear, but also represent in PrimeTime Fight Shorts.

Congratulations to both Wade and all his training partners at the Silverback's Gym.  We appreciate the support and look forward to seeing more belts hanging from your 'Wall of Champions'.

Congratulations Davis Family

Since we're feeling rather warm and fuzzy today, we'd like to welcome little Emily Davis into the world.  Mike is the owner of Cutthroat Fight Gear but they have been part of our PrimeTime "family" since our company hit the streets 6 years ago.  We've always appreciated their efforts in 'spreading the word' and they are one of the many reasons why PrimeTime is recognized by full contact fighters as 'best of class'.  Our best wishes to Mike and Maricruz.  We wish your family lots of love, health and happiness.  Congratulations

Tapout Board Short Review
 New Fight Shorts - Red & Black and 'Limited Edition Finger'

PrimeTime Fight Shorts InseamLife is good. Our new Fight Shorts get great product reviews from international magazines.  UFC and Bodog vets endorse us  simply because our product is "that good".  Our "pre-books" wipe out our inventory before it ever hits the shelves and our embroiderer is a nervous wreck trying to keep up with our timetable. 

So, if you think that Mark, our PrimeTime President, would just sit back and "bask in the glow", you would be very, very wrong!!  In our quest  to be best in class, we're also going to take this opportunity, to introduce to you our new Red and Black Fight Shorts!  But, that's not all.  Soon you'll be seeing a whole host of colors and patterns that will be uniquely "PrimeTime".  As they say on TV, 'you will like it'. Of course, we'll continue to include our exclusive offer of FREE EMBROIDERY for all our customers on each pair of fight shorts.


But, hold onto your jock, we're just getting started.  We never imagined that we'd have so much fun embroidering funky fight names onto shorts!  Some examples include 'Big Shit', ER, Beef Bane and Pink Squirrel.    So, after a few hours of getting 'lost in the ether', Mark decided that we're going to 'play' with limited edition fight shorts.  Starting with - 'The Finger'.

You guessed it!  Our 'Finger Short' literally has 'the finger' silk screened onto the center inseam panel of every premium short.  Every time a PrimeTime fighter goes down into 'the guard' you will be flashing 'half a peace sign' to your opponent!  But hurry, we only brought in a limited number and our 'pre-books' for these special edition shorts are 'off the hook.'  After all, no one, no where does what we do - heavy duty full contact fight quality gear, free embroidery and a few 'design liberties' to 'liven' things up!!  Train hard, fight fierce and look damned good.  Now that's 'PrimeTime'.

If It Don't Say PrimeTime, It Ain't Ready For MMA
PrimeTime competitor comparison

As the first name in MMA gloves, we at PrimeTime wanted to issue a 'public service announcement'.  Those other guys who have spent 3 years trying to knock off our gear are at it again.  And this effort is probably the most ill fated of all!!  In fact, that pitiful squeal you hear is their most recent entry into the endless parade of 'wannabe PrimeTime Gear' as they continue to try and figure out 'how we do it'!!  We've blacked out the name of the guilty (Big companies always have some gnarly shark toothed lawyer on retainer') in order to show you, side by side, why PrimeTime will always be considered the gold standard for MMA gloves.


Check it out.  The stitching on their pads is never centered. Either the padding is falling off the side of the hand, or the bottom pad is so "cockeyed" that the glove never balances properly on the hand.  And they try to sell that glove at 6oz.  No way!  We weighed 12 different pair of gloves and the max weight of any one pair of 'regular sized gloves' was 5.5 oz!  In fact, when looking at the 'pairs' there were differences in weight and padding height between the right and left handed gloves.  Unbelievable!!

This 'dreck' is so bad that Mark's been smiling wide ever since he saw the poor, poor quality of these gloves.  In fact, we had to talk him out of raising PrimeTime prices!  Absolutely amazing that they try to sell this low end crap at the same price as a PrimeTime MMA glove! 

Caveat Emptor -let the buyer beware - if it don't say PrimeTime, it just ain't ready for MMA!!


More PrimeTime Reasons To Buy PrimeTime MMA Gloves
PrimeTime Family Pic
We wanted to take a 'bit' of space to let ya'll know that one of the reasons we're considered the 'first name' in MMA gloves is simply because we create our gear for the fighter.  Our pro gloves are built to fight applications based on Stand-Up v. Ground & Pound skill sets.  We even have a 4 oz pro glove made from our "Combat Pad" that helps to protect hands better than a standard pad.  Not to mention the fact that PrimeTime is  credited with creating the Amateur /Cross Training Category with our Level 4 MMA Gloves.


But did you know that nearly all PrimeTime MMA Gloves are available in XS and Small sizes?  Did you know that we had 'pink' gloves for the ladies and XS sizes for kids just starting their MMA training?  No one else offers you this breath of product so deep in sizes.  That's why Gym owners and trainers have us as #1 on their speed dial.  They know that we'll be able to fit anyone who walks into their gym ranging from THE UNDERTAKER (PrimeTime PT900 Series XL Gloves) or 'Little Mikey' (PT600XS Red) learning some Ground & Pound at Koryukan USA.  Just another reason that PrimeTime is the MMA Glove of Choice!

James Clingerman Presented Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt!!
James Clingerman

We wanted to take notice of an event that occurred in October down in Indianapolis, Indiana.  One of our favorite customers, James Clingerman, was presented his black belt by Mario Silho during the EGO Jiu-Jitsu tournament.  If you live in the Midwest, you know that fighters drive hours from several different states for the opportunity to work with James.  His reputation is 'PrimeTime', his gear is "PrimeTime' and he's one of the best role models in this sport.  We're proud that we have quality customers like James and AJ Clingerman and it's our privilege to count them as our friends.  Congratulations James.  Enjoy the moment - you've certainly earned it!!

Keep Training!
