In 2024, UFC and Venum opened the doors on custom shorts, which featured on some of the sport’s signature moments last year. For all three of Alex Pereira’s title-defending knockouts, “Poatan” donned a multicolored kit that honored his ancestry and the Pataxó tribe. When Max Holloway scored his last-second knockout to capture the BMF title, he did so in floral shorts honoring his Hawaiian roots. Paddy Pimblett rocked some orange shorts as a callback to his Cage Warrior days, Dricus Du Plessis wore shorts celebrating the South African flag, and Dustin Poirier’s floral number added another pop of color to 2024’s Fight of the Year contender against Islam Makhachev.
