TRAVIS FULTON - MMA Scandal & Deceit

Former MMA Fighter Travis Fulton made the news in early July 2021. Apparently, he committed suicide  while in police custody. He had accepted a guilty plea that would have seen him do 18 years for charges including child pornography. 

In this clip, four MMA veterans who have known Travis Fulton since the 90's got together to talk on the #LytesOut Podcast. Manager/Promoter Monte Cox and Jeremy Horn joined the #LOP team for this one.

We talked about ignoring the subject and not giving Fulton anymore time. His life reckoning has already happened in the most ugly way. Now, we call for a true review of his MMA record.
