Fried chicken restauranteer Tony Hawk is reportedly putting some of his investment cash into a new MMA league called Global League, which is funded by a $60 million war chest, according to a story on Bloody Elbow.
“We are building something authentic, something that belongs to the athletes and to the fans who live and breathe this sport,” Scott Coker said. “I’ve spent nearly two years developing this concept, and I’m thankful to Peter, all of our investors and the team we’re putting together.”
With the UFC throwing fists on the White House lawn, what better time to get in on some modern, visceral gladiator action. Beat their ass. Make some cash.
