UFC officially releases bizarre custom Sean Strickland shorts
· Yahoo Sports
In a sport dedicated to innovation and being one step ahead of the competition, the UFC has really outdone itself with its latest release dedicated to Sean Strickland.
The UFC has prided itself on professionalism, stripping away chaotic sponsors and personality from its fight gear to ensure those competing under its banner looked the part. However, years passed, and the promotion eventually caved to fan and fighter demand: custom shorts. Spearheading a change in the UFC, Sean O’Malley’s vibrant pink shorts and Bryce Mitchell’s camo-print trunks opened the floodgates for further customization among fighters.

Since then, many competitors on the UFC roster have been gifted with custom shorts. The alteration sparked debate among fans, who argue over which unique look is the best. But we may have a new top contender.
Move over Alex Pereira‘s Brazil-inspired champion shorts, step aside Ilia Topuria‘s iconic red-and-gold fight kit, and go away Max Holloway‘s Hawaiian-style floral gear; there’s a new head of the table. The manufacturer, ProSphere, did an excellent job capturing the true essence of Sean Strickland. His undeniable fashion sense and aesthetic have been combined into a true visual masterpiece that no one but Strickland could pull off.
Without further ado, I present to you the single greatest custom fight kit in UFC history, courtesy of Sean Strickland:
