TJ Thompson is the Godfather of Mixed Martial Arts in Hawaii, so when he comes to talk to hosts Attorney Marcus Landsberg and Mom/Model Naomi Cooper Christensen about his peaks and valleys, we immediately ask him about his experience dancer for dollars through Chippendale’s and Playgirl magazine. He tells us how he drove through the bread basket of America, taking his clothes off for money. He shares about 90's Oahu by discussing Fast Eddie’s in Kailua, Gussie L’amour’s, Superbrawl and IconSport.
In the shadow of the early days of UFC fights, when two tough guys pounded each other for minimal profit, TJ started promoting massive cards. TJ went from losing one hundred thousand dollars in the fight game, to selling out fifty-seven straight shows and selling his company for Six-point-two million dollars - and how that money was all gone in two months.
