Best Jockstrap Brand in the World? And Evgeny Kuznetsov’s Jockstrap. What is the best jockstrap brand in the world? If you are into mixed martial arts (MMA) or high-impact sport such as baseball, the best jockstrap for you could be the Diamond MMA jockstrap. Why?

From Entrepreneurs’ Organization: “Entrepreneurs’ Organization’s (EO) Global Student Entrepreneur Awards (GSEA) today announced that Daniel Goldberg, COO & co-founder of Diamond MMA, is the winner of their first-ever U.S. National Competition… Goldberg, a junior from Syracuse University, founded Diamond MMA with a group of athletes and designers to provide protection to competitors in high-impact sports. After viewing “one too many” groin shot time-outs in professional mixed martial arts, the team focused its efforts to develop the best protective gear for MMA and high-impact sports.”
