TUF uniforms actually look better than this crap


I did see a side picture of Joana in fight apparel though, it what you can see looks fine, she also looks good with weight and cleaned up. On another note, Ronda looked rough and she usually looks better cleaned up.

There is something about Joanna that I find extremely appealing. I hear people say she's ugly but I don't think she is at all

(hopefully I don't sound like a huge dork here)

I agree. I dont find her ugly. She isnt as cute as Paige, Meisha or Ronda but she isnt ugly.

Re: OS MMA Random Thread

This video is the best response I've heard from the UFC about the Reebok deal. I dont agree with the UFC's position but Lorenzo lays out how they see it clearly. From the UFC's perspective, its the evolution of the business and that managers are just going to have to work harder.

I was hoping to buy a "Giblert Melendez" kit, but that's been removed for the time being.

I was eying the Marcio Lyoto Machida jersey. Lol. It's bad enough that these look like ****, but they can't even get the names right. I haven't seen anything from Reebok that looks good yet. They're providing UFC with bargain bin clothing at ridiculous prices.

^ LOL

The least Reebok could do was give the correct nicknames to the fighters.

Re: OS MMA Random Thread

I think reebok is going about it wrong

I'm not gonna wear a shirt that says "Rory McDonald" but I will wear a shirt that says Canadian psycho, or has a dark outline of his face and is designed well. They need to get more creative. Use logos, use art. I won't wear a Joanna J. shirt but I would wear a design of her viciously striking or something like that. Or Ronda arm barring someone, or werdums silly face, that kind of stuff

Use logos, nicknames, stencil art

These first round gear kits look pretty dumb to me.

LOL. That was more enjoyable because I thought you were serious (I haven't watched ANW this season) so was expecting her to actually do well. Failing on the first obstacle was a better result.

I've been watching it and it was hilarious.



UFC has event in Dublin 10/24. They are probably hoping Conor wins.

Re: OS MMA Random Thread

The Dublin event is a Fight Pass event, it won't be Conor. Odds are they're hoping Duffy wins his match at the Scotland event and they can use him again but that turnaround might be too quick. Not sure exactly what their plan is. Maybe Cathal Pendred headlines if he beats John Howard but that seems like a serious stretch.

Big rumors about CroCop headlining that Dublin Fight Pass card.

You dont think Conor headlines if he loses? Throw him in against someone like a Lentz or Bermudez?

Re: OS MMA Random Thread

It's got 20,000 seats so if Conor wins, it won't stay a fight pass.

The 3Arena (formally O2) only seats around 10,000 people. You can get up to 14k with the right configuration.

I remember Conor talking to Helwani before the Brandao fight and he admitted that it would be tough to have a bigger fight their because of the small capacity.

Ok I thought it was smaller, but when I saw the news, I thought I saw 20,000, must have been the date.
