Someone on the mma facebook page will know. I had several unknowns and they knew who they were quickly.

Unfortunately, I posted there in a few different groups actually with no dice.

Initial guesses were Jessica Penne. I almost always label my return envelope in case of something like this, I must have spaced it though. It almost has to be to a new guy like:

Sean Strickland, Ray Borg, Josh Copeland, Jonathan Wilson, Justin Jones, Chris Dempsey. Those are guys I sent to but with no sources to compare to...

The poster on the link above has a signature with that odd looking "4" shape in it. It is on the chest of Melendez but it is really hard to tell. That is the best I could find.

Chip.
After review, I sent out to 5 of the guys that fought at UFC 181 and the signature definitely looks similar to the one on Melendez's chest.

Eddie Gordon, Corey Anderson, Justin Jones, Matt Hobar and Clay Collard.
So now I just need to do a little more work.

Thanks for your help!

Looks like it's Justin Jones.

Looks like it has two J's in the pic.

Also on the left, is a possible L and on the right is a possible B. His nickname is Lazy Bones.
I was able to cross out Eddie Gordon, Corey Anderson and Clay Collard so I tweeted it over to him to follow up.

Cheers MAN!

They all look wise except
1. Chris Lytle@Integrated Fighting Academy (IDK this gym still exists or if run it anymore)
2. Kenny Florian@Florian Martial Arts Center (best bet since it's his Bro's place)
3. Diego Sanchez@Jacksons MMA (waste of effort - gotta push him on Twitter to receive & sign/send back his mail)
4. Chael Sonnen@Reign (doesn't sign TTM c/o Gyms)
5. Gabriel Gonzaga@Team Link (I think he moved to new Link location from Ludlow)
6. Phil Baroni@Syndicate MMA (Phil still there, or One Kick's? - confirm on FB or Twitter)

Thanks for the info DK. I was pretty sure Diego would be a scrap. I've sent to him about 4 different times now with no luck. I'll try hitting him on Twitter.

Also sent to Tito Ortiz for about the 5th time. Gta get him on a Main Event. I sent to Traci at Team Punishment this time. Wrote her a pretty lengthy letter. Maybe that will get the job done.
