In what looks to be a fusion of MMA and Punk Rock, People.com is reporting according to one of their "sources" that Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker is casually dating UFC ring girl staple Arianny Celeste. The two were most recently seen canoodling in West Hollywood at Chateau Marmont. Barker is a long time MMA fan and his songs have been used as walkout music by the likes of Travis Browne and many others. Barker has also sponsored UFC fighters Travis Browne and Dominick Cruz over the years through his Famous brand clothing line. Barker's passion for MMA resulted in the wake of his plane crash in 2008 in Columbia, SC which left 4 of 6 passengers aboard the plane that day dead. After surviving the crash, Barker found MMA as a viable cardio outlet and continued to train MMA twice a week with his daughter and son. Over the years, Barker has been to many UFC events mainly in support of Travis Brown and Dominick Cruz whom he considers both family as part of the Famous brand clothing line. As you can see in the videos below, Barker seems to be a legitimate fan of the sport and supporting the fighters in a genuine manner. Best of luck to him and Arianny. Who would you rather have as a sponsor: Travis Barker or Reebok?
