They're completely different. See how Cain's name is green? Different.
Fighters who complained are going to see trucks filled with those royalty dollars just roll in any day now. Who among us won't be lining up to buy dozens of them for $95 a pop?
What should we do for our Ronda Rousey Reebok shirt? I dunno, how about a picture of Ronda Rousey wearing a Reebok shirt?

Conor McGregor looks like he's trying to figure out where his life went wrong.
This feels like another case of the UFC overestimating their reach. You can't spent 10 years cultivating your brand as one that is associated with shitty metal music and bro culture and then expect to turn around and sell "fight kits". Nobody is going to buy this shit.

Matt Hughes has no page on the Reebok site but atleast they got his brother Mark down.

Couldn't they have hired someone with basic MMA knowledge for this gig?
Edit:
Giblert Melendez is my favorite fighter.

I don't get the idea of having uniformity in an individual sport. Would golf be better served if Tiger Woods dressed like everyone else? What about tennis and Serena Williams? Or boxing and Money Mayweather? I don't get where they got the idea that this would be a good idea. This isn't team sports where people root for the laundry. You should want guys to stand out in anyway they can.
You're right! This reeks of communism and is downright un-american!

And $95 for a replica shirt and they couldn't throw in free shipping?

I love how personalized these are. Surely to fly off the shelves and MASSIVE royalties to be had from fighters.

70 million for a 6 year deal.
No clue what UFC was thinking, that's an awful deal for them. Reebok made out like bandits.
$70m... wow, a company was paid 70m for that. I can't even hate Reebok for managing to grab that much money from another company and handing back pure shit
Wonder if the UFC doubles down on this or what? The next few days should bring some great twitter posts and objections

Geez, I expect those "Fight Kits" to hit clearance racks real soon.
Seriously, uniforms are for team sports.

Well it's the other way around, Reebok paid the UFC $70 million in return for their fighters wearing these outfits and removing other sponsors from the cage.
A lot of the fighters are taking huge losses from losing their sponsors, that 70 million just isn't enough to go around.

For once I agree with him.
Nothing I enjoy more than somebody who beats a few years off of another man's life for money and entertainment then getting on the microphone to talk about how much Jesus wanted him to concuss that dumb bastard.
Well, except the guy who said he felt like god when he drank his opponent's blood. That guy took it to a new level, and maybe it's better that we retire it now that we've reached peak jesus in post-fights.

You know you fucked up when professional gamers have better uniforms.
If the UFC just keeps making colossal fuckups, we might get to thread 7 before UFC closes their doors via a series of smaller less noticeable fuckups.
