According to Dana White the UFC is working on creating a standard uniform for their fighters. Nothing set in stone yet, but the rumor is that there is a big deal with a huge apparel company coming soon.

Who's the company? *Nike*?

What do you think about this?

I think it is stupid. Do boxers have uniforms? Do kickboxers have uniforms? Do Muay Thai fighters have uniforms?

All about the $$$$$. They want to team up with whoever the apparel company is to lock in even more cash. This is crazy.

The UFC’s new uniforms could potentially raise the average level of sponsorship money if the promotion shares profits with the maker of the UFC-branded apparel. White also has promised a new sponsorship program that will put more money in the pockets of active fighters. Quarry, however, feels the promotion’s plans could make it harder than ever for fighters to make a living.

“To me, that’s just one more opportunity where the UFC could make it so much easier for the fighters to make extra money, since they’re not getting paid much,” he said.


Not sure but Quarry who is well respected sounds like he doesn't think the Unis are a good idea either.
