Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) is a very popular, fast-growing segment of the sports industry. Professional boxing needs to be VERY concerned about the rise of MMA as a substitute for its fan base who has grown tired of the politics and corruption that plagues the sport. But how should an investor look at IFLI.OB? For what it's worth, I give it no more than a 10% chance of surviving another two years as a pink sheet stock. I don't think that the rate of revenue growth is going to be high enough to outpace the company's cash burn rate, and they're headed for a cash crunch in 24 to 36 months. UFC has the first-mover advantage in this market. But I'm not sure that MMA has what it takes to become an established player in the sports industry. It may just be a passing fad (like it was in the 90s) that dies out in time. As investments go, I'd say that this stock is purely a speculative play for the next several years.
