Impact of the show
Although the show is typically panned by MMA fans, it catapulted Danger to the professional ranks after being discovered by Tito Ortiz. Punishment Athletics endorses the fighter and now sells a t-shirt with his nickname on it. In November 2012, he won his professional debut against fellow newcomer Ryan Hollis by a split decision victory by a vote of 29 to 28. Tony Kelley made his professional debut in April 2013 winning by first round tko against Kody Thrasher.
