The foundation of UFC fighter sponsorship was altered today when the organization announced a six-year partnership that eventually will see all fighters wear Reebok apparel inside the octagon. Specific details on the landmark deal are still somewhat scarce, but early comments from company President Dana White and CEO Lorenzo Fertitta indicate the athletes will be paid on a tiered system correlated to official fighter rankings. White revealed he called more than 50 of the 560 fighters on the roster to discuss details of the new uniform program. The rest? Many were left to share their initial impressions on social media.
