Unless this already exists and I am missing something, it would be cool if you could click on a fighters gym affiliation and be taken to a page dedicated to the gym.

I don't think its exactly what you are looking for but I made this about 6 months ago , havnt updated it in a while . But most of the gyms that had a location on google maps have a link to their website on this. I quit working on it when I got so many locations I had to seperate into two pages of maps(wwas hoping I could have all the markers on the same map) so it pissed me off and I quit . But there are a ton here if you just want to browse MMA gyms.

It doesn't exist right now. 

The information is not currently entered in any kind of structured way.  Each fighter might have the gym spelled differently, or shorthand, or who knows.

ATT
American Top Team
ATT Miami
American Top Team Miami
ATT / Power JJ
American TT & Power Jiu Jitsu
Power Jiu Jitsu and American Top Team Miramar

All that would need to be cleaned up and standardized.  It's something planned for the future but not imminently going to be available, sorry!

Well, there are actually 2 separate things. 

There is creating gym pages, so that each gym can have a page.  That's more likely to happen sooner than later.

But then there is cleaning up the gym information for 50,000 fighters.  That's a whole separate ball of wax.

Something tells me I'll be involved in that ball of wax.
