Search the current manufacturers throughout the country (maybe even all throughout Asia!) and find one that trains in MMA…fights in MMA or even WATCHES MMA? You probably won’t, and…

Here in Pakistan, despite not having a huge MMA scene, we ironically probably have access to more quality MMA equipment per capita than anywhere else in the world.
