This is totally random, but for some reason it popped in my head. There was a “fighter” I remember the UG ragging on that had a completely inflated record on Sherdog and was constantly called out until he finally took a real fight and got the shit kicked out of him. I can’t for the life of me think of his name. Reed maybe? This had to be 15-20 years ago. Anyone know what I’m talking about or is my old age beginning to create memories?

No. I’m going to feel like shit if this turns out to be something discussed over at Sherdog and not the UG.
There’s been more than a few people this describes.

Oh I know. That’s what’s making this so difficult.
I actually check in on Trap Gambino’s scripted “fight” promotion from time to time. It’s like driving by a car crash. I can’t look away.
Did he really get it off the ground? I wonder who he bamboozled into giving him enough money to do that.
Man, if you’re not following the Made Fight League you’re missing out on a type of delusion you never imagined possible…

Reed Cook I think was the name! The thread was called, “Reed Cook scams MMA tv”
First thing that came to mind.
