[QUOTE=Kru_Kawalski;2589068]Who cares if the man doesn’t have enough time to blogg all day, or if he’s not computer savvy.
[/QUOTE]can’t blog all day =/= disseminate inaccurate or misleading information.
Arjarn Ric should have a better website, I agree. Also, he should show what he is talking about with a picture of his own belt, etc. I agree.
What I can’t agree with, is someone from another sport, art, discipline, who knows zip about what they’re talking about, bashing someone they don’t even like. Why bother?
If you don’t like the man, then be a man and leave him alone.
In the interest of consumers of the martial arts, this site (among other things) investigates fraud in…you guessed it, the martial arts. The highly impressive yet entirely unverifiable professional fight record is beyond explanation. In the stated records, over the course of several posts/bio’s, he actually appeared to have a draw vanish. You don’t have to like or dislike someone to call bullshit, when it affect people’s wallets, and in the case of martial arts, their safety, and that of their loved ones.
What I can tell you, is that Arjarn Ric Sniffen has done more to legalize full rules Muay Thai in the Bible belt states than anyone else. He is the vice executive president of the usmta. The usmta have a charter from the btbc, wma, wmtc.
He may have, but nothing in his actions regarding the growth of MT excuses or negates lies about a record, or achievements that he hasn’t earned.
So, what you’re saying is that the usmta, wma, wmtc, btbc are all phony Muay Thai groups?
No one’s said that, in fact, unless I’m mistaken, I have an amateur fight sanctioned by the usmta. What’s being questioned at this point, is Ric Sniffen’s claims of a professional fight record that, by any measure, is suspiciously absent from any documentation, that my google-fu/yahoo-fu/meta-fu can find.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but quit hatin homies. This has become childish.

read the above thread, or I fear you’ll get yourself banned. The angry hand of Mod smites content-free posts in MABS.
173 pro fights, and no verifiable record. Does that not seem strange?
