And no, Grabowski already denied he was signed, he said he's still with M-1 and doesn't know what the deal with the "jersey" is.

From the laughable mistakes, it's obvious the design team knows little or nothing of most of the fighters, or of the sport.

Use the photo and make a cool shirt or shirts then post. ill start working on one. do what ever fighters you want. lets see how cool we can make them. Use a UFC logo and Reebok logo just because. I know we dont have many photo editing aficionados but it could be fun.

Thank you Reebok. Hopefully this God awful event can push further talks of a fighter union.

(It's a funny article, by the way, and well worth the read.)
Samman says near the end:
"Do I think anyone will be paying $95 for a soccer jersey with a UFC fighter’s name on it? No. Was the presentation hilarious? Yes."
When I saw that, suddenly I realized what was wrong with the design that I couldn't put my finger on before. I knew it just plain didn't look right, but Samman spelled it out for me. It's not an MMA uniform. It's a soccer uniform.
Kind of understandable, since Reebok originated as an English company, and has been owned by a German company (Adidas) for the past 10 years. The Reebok designers don't know or care about MMA, but they love soccer. OF COURSE they designed a soccer uniform to d**** over MMA fighters.

No odds for Monster Energy? I mean they are technically the UFC's next main sponsor outside of Reebok; considering how they are now the center sponsor for the UFC cage.

And I'm still trying to decide which was more cringeworthy: The Reebok uniform launch, or the always classic Tito Ortiz press conference for Cyborg.
