Look at these loving things: https://www.mmafighting.com/2017/9/5/16254838/reebok-introduces-next-wave-of-ufc-gear-including-ufc-legacy-series

Interesting choice, adding jizz stains to all the fighter outfits.

Good news for the fighters, if they cum mid-match now the referee won't be able to tell and disqualify them.

Valerie basically lost via Reebok incompetence in that one - her top didn't fit for poo poo and she kept having to fix it mid-fight.

Not that she was probably going to win anyway, but it sure didn't help.

She did have some troubles with her top, but it isn't why she lost the fight - she took a kick to the body that caused her to wince, turn her back and wander away, and Calderwood chased her down and dropped her with punches.

I should know this, and I refuse to google it, but is Nick Diaz officially retired?

The UFC offered him fights against Robbie Lawler and Demian Maia this year but he turned them down, so he's not actually retired but he will never fight.

I feel bad for all of the fans who were so hyped up for the big Demetrious Johnson vs. Ray Borg fight. Huge loss for the UFC.

Couldn't he fight in some Asian promotion that won't give a poo poo about his ban or on a boat in international waters?

No, because he's still under contract with the UFC. He can't fight anywhere else, regardless of his suspension status, unless they cut him loose from it.

What is an Alex Reyes?

It appears that he hasn't fought in 2 years, Platinum Mike on three days notice is a hell of a comeback fight.

He's already done one event, he reffed at a Gladiator Challenge event in August.

Yeah, that was because he posted a photoshop of himself wearing a Nike fight kit and telling Reebok to suck his balls.

Well he'll get brownie points for doing a three day notice fight and get to return to his real weight class at least

i hate when they do these kind of fights. clearly not the right weight class and it messes the records up.

Their other option was to not do a fight at all because Thiago Alves dropped out three days away. The UFC loves when guys step up on late notice so Reyes bought himself a few fights at his real weight class, and Perry's training camp doesn't go to waste.

He fought the guy who got knocked out by Uriah Hall earlier, Jotko. In a very boring fight.

Good for Rockhold, going the distance with the World Series of Fighting guy that nobody knows or cares about wouldn't have been a good look

My favorite Tim Kennedy thing was when he encouraged fans to send him their addresses on Twitter so he could ship merch to them. When they did he revealed it was a trick and that they were stupid for giving an army ranger sniper their address as if he was gonna go to their house and shoot them to death.

It's confirmed for UFC 218 on December 2. Henry Cejudo vs. Sergio Pettis on the same card is in the works too.

Werdum has always been a jerk but people just thought it was funny when he was doing it to people they don't like such as Travis Browne and Edmond
