MMA Loses One Of Its Biggest Supporters


Tapout apparel co-founder and MMA promoter Charles "Mask" Lewis has passed away in a car accident in Costa Mesa, California. The 45-year-old died when he lost control of his Ferrari and hit a lamp pole. Lewis was pronounced dead at the scene. Lewis and Dan "Punkass" Caldwell founded TapouT in 1997 as a clothing and MMA gear retailer. In addition to retail, the private company also signed deals with fighters, including Kimbo Slice, and is a sponsor of fight events.
