I had a brief conversation with Jerod Phillips of Tap or Sleep. He's got two fighters on two different cards in two different states tonight.

Blake Bowman, who was once a competitor on The Ultimate Fighter, is fighting Dustin West at Music City MMA in Nashville.

Blake "Just Bleed" Bowman

Blake Bowman, a contestant on The Ultimate Fighter 6, was recently interviewed by promma. Here's the last bit of it - pay close attention to his plug of Hanover-based clothing company Tap or Sleep fightwear down at the bottom.

PRO MMA: Ultimately Blake, what would you like to accomplish in MMA?

BLAKE BOWMAN: I want to have a highlight video made. And when people watch that video, they say "yeah, I remember that fight...(specific part) was SICK!" I just want people to be entertained by what I do and remember and want to see it again. I don't have a goal specific to accomplish, but I don't ever want to look back and say, "I could have fought a little harder." You can't help how good, ready or whatever the other guy is...but if you could have finished, and you didn't...that's your wagon to pull. Basically, whether it's WEC, DREAM, Strikeforce, UFC, whatever, I want people to see my fights and WANT to see another one.

PRO MMA: Thank you Blake for taking the time to do this. We wish you the best of luck in your upcoming fight and we will be right there to see it all live. I can't wait. Would you like to thank anyone or send any shout-outs?

BLAKE BOWMAN: I'd like to thank my family and friends back home who stand by, especially my mom. She's a huge supporter. Cole, Micah, Tim, Charles, everyone at BocaMMA and American Top Team. My coaches and especially Tibau, Jorge Santiago, Luigi Fioravanti, Rich Antonito and Danillo Villefort. I've been training with those guys a lot lately. Josh Hartnett, Primo, Puma, Liborio. CrossFit Delray Beach for helping me get into shape and my sponsors: FightDentist.com, TaporSleep fight gear for the time being. I'm looking for anyone willing to help me out, so feel free to contact me. And thanks to MusicCityMMA for giving this chance to fight a tough guy on a good show.
