FOR THE FIGHT-MINDED
WELCOME TO MMA WAREHOUSE!
We are incredibly happy, honored, and humbled to have you join the community.
That’s exactly what our new vision for MMA Warehouse is: a community. Technically, we are a “highly-curated e-commerce platform,” but MMA Warehouse has always been a lot more than that. If you’re new here, that might require a little backstory.
THE HISTORY
MMA Warehouse was once a beloved brand in the MMA community. It was a pioneer in early e-commerce and a very positive, influential force in the developing mixed martial arts community. It was sold and bought a few times and ultimately closed its doors for good in 2019.
To be very clear, we are new owners. We are not affiliated in any way with the previous brand or ownership. However, we do have the personal blessing from the original creator to revive MMA Warehouse and make it great again.
OUR VISION
To be the definitive source for martial artists, fighters, hobbyists, gyms, and any combat sports athletes in the USA, offering an unparalleled, highly-curated selection of the most elite, top-shelf equipment for boxing, mixed martial arts (MMA), Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and other combat sports.
We are deeply committed to providing gyms, coaches, and students with exclusive access to the highest-quality gear only from the industry's most prestigious brands.
OUR PROMISE
Excellent customer service
Top-shelf products only
Guaranteed authenticity
Fast shipping from within the USA
MEET THE TEAM
JASON BURNWORTH
CEO & Co-Founder
Jason grew up on the mats, wrestled early, and spent 20+ years in BJJ, earning his black belt in 2016. He owned a Muay Thai and MMA gym, then served as head BJJ coach and later manager at Fairtex Training Center in Pattaya, coaching everyone from first-day students to world champ Stamp Fairtex. Before that he built software and databases for a U.S. government data center, then went full-time entrepreneur in 2011 and co-founded the Investors Club, exiting in 2022. In 2025 he acquired and relaunched MMA Warehouse. Off the mats he travels, spoils cats, and swears no one loves Mexican food more.
ANDREJ ILISIN
CMO & Co-Founder
Andrej Ilisin leads brand, growth, and all things front-facing at MMA Warehouse. He turns product knowledge into plain-English buyer guides, sharp offers, and no-nonsense PDPs that help athletes pick the right gear fast. A CrossFit die-hard, he brings the same engine to marketing - testing, iterating, and pushing pace - while gearing up to start BJJ with coaches Jason “Sparkplug” Burnworth and Shawn Crampton. Andrej’s mandate is simple: curate what works, explain it clearly, ship it fast, and stand behind it.
SHAWN CRAMPTON
COO & Partner
Shawn is a BJJ black belt with 18+ years on the mats. He has coached and cornered fighters, matched cards for local MMA, and built strong training communities with a special focus on kids. A longtime academy owner, he teaches daily at Tribal Society Jiu Jitsu in Colorado. Outside the gym he brings 25 years in IT, where he led high performing teams for a major hospitality company and helped shape the executive tech roadmap. His role at MMA Warehouse is simple: build systems that scale and keep the culture tight.
VIVIAN WOONG
Social Media Manager
Oakland born and raised, Vivian blends social media skill with real fight culture. She has led projects with Meta, Google, and startups, then in 2022 moved to Thailand to live Muay Thai up close. At Fairtex Training Center she helped refresh their social channels and deepen the story around the sport. At MMA Warehouse she drives content that is useful, fast, and honest, from product education to on-the-ground features. When she is not shooting or editing, she is training, hanging with her cat, and chasing the next great noodle shop.
