In all honesty, they likely have a script that links to a database file that places the name on the shirts for a mock up. So although it's a pretty big f--- up, it's an easy one to make but all it takes is someone missing letters typing it into the database. These aren't actual photos of actual shirts. Same goes for things like Rebecca Rawlings, and Thomas Lawlor, etc. Those are likely the legal names of the fighters, so in the database given to Reebok that's how they show up.

It's kind of a f--- up on both parties, but it's something that is extremely easy to over look.

Regardless of that, in time this will all smooth over. The uniforms are pretty meh. I don't mind the front (The white version is better and the champions all black version is even better_, but putting the name on the back like that is ugly as s---. I wish they would have gone the route of an old Fear The Fighter style design, where they catered to each person. Let's say you make a generic one for the prelims but all main card fighters get a personalized design.

Regardless no one wears fighter tshirts anyway, I would buy them as a souvenir maybe, but never wear it.

Yeah if one of my friends ever ended up in the UFC I might buy one out of support, but that's about it

Walk into a bar with a fighting shirt and you instantly become a target lol

UFC should probably think about announcing some fights for UFC 191, we're 2 months out and so far only the PVZ fight has been announced. Gotta assume that Mighty Mouse/Dodson II will headline it.

I'm just hoping that 194 gets moved to Calgary since NY didn't legalize.

I could see Rory headlining if he beats Robbie

Joe Riggs is going back up to MW and will fight Uriah Hall in Nashville.

Every time Hall loses they give the guy a lay up

 

Jul 3, 2015

I read that Hall was going down to 170 to take the fight

 

Jul 3, 2015

no way Hall can make 170...

Especially not on short notice

Melendez failed drug test, so obviously is out of fight against Al Iaquinta

Lucky for him the new PED rules hadn't kicked in or he would have been suspended 2 years instead of one.

 

Jul 6, 2015

Cerrone of course says he'll take the Iaquinta fight

 

Jul 6, 2015

Iaquinta off the card now aswell going to sort out an injury that has been bothering him

 

Jul 6, 2015

d--- El Niño!

I would like to give him the benefit of the doubt, that his statement was sincere, and he did not purposely take PEDs, just took a supplement with a banned substance.

f---in a MMA, why can't we have nice things?

Now we gonna get Giblert Melendez in the UFC!

 

Jul 6, 2015

^On Gil's wikipedia page under nicknames it says "El Niño" and "Giblert"

Ryan Bader vs Rashad Evans added to "UFC 192". Khabib also wants on that card and was calling out Iaquinta, Al might need knee surgery though but if he doesn't he is down. Cain also wants on that card against whoever doesn't get the title shot between Stipe or Arlovski.

DC/Gus is supposed to headline that card. Still nothing on 191 though. To me it feels like they are just waiting to cancel that show and change 191 to October in Houston.

Also if you looks at how the UFC spaces their PPV's UFC 200 would would end up landing in June, which in years past ends up with the scraps from the Memorial weekend/July PPV's. If they end up skipping that date UFC 200 would land right on International Fight Week in 2016.
