This sucks if it's true, I love these shirts. Tight designs, nice fit. People that can't stand them are probably just out-of-shape haters cuz they're made to hug the physique. lol.

I'd compare a fighter wearing an Affliction shirt at a UFC to a Wendy's cashier wearing a "McDonald's opening soon" shirt to work. If Affliction is opening a competive MMA company, why would the UFC want that broadcast on their airwaves? If you think this has anything to do with Randy, you're stupid. Read the article before you make childish assumptions.

who really cares anyway? its a t-shirt, maybe now i can walk around without seeing all the fake tough guys acting tough in their affliction shirts.
this is not a shot at randy, its a shot at all fighters. We all know dana wants a piece of whatever money is being made and this is basically the man in charge telling the workers what they cant do.

Don't you get that? Did you even read the article? It's comparable to a UFC fighter walking down the entrance way in an EliteXC tshirt. Stop being so stupid.

We all know dana wants a piece of whatever money is being made and this is basically the man in charge telling the workers what they cant do. | UFC HAS been telling fighters which sponsors they can and can't show. I know because I have tried to sponsor fighters and seen the agreement that UFC sends. Some examples were no gambling sites (would lead people to bodog), no nutrition sites (remember they were in bed with xyience) and I forgot the other one.
But if Affliction is starting their own org, then I am all for UFC banning them. You think they would let a fighter walk down in a M1 Global Shirt and an HDNet Fights hat?

It was due to an agreement with the Casinos where the UFC are normally held.
Thats what got Lindland Fired. He had a gambling sponsor they told him not to wear the shirt to the weigh ins and he did anyways.
