Sean O’Malley Unveils Signature Shorts Ahead of UFC 299

"Making a statement with neon pink in the octagon"

A Colorful Statement in the Octagon

UFC champion Sean O’Malley is gearing up to make a fashion statement at this weekend’s UFC 299, as he steps into the octagon wearing a pair of special neon pink shorts. Known for his unique style, including dyed hair and new tattoos for each fight, “Sugar” is taking his personal branding to the next level. O’Malley’s choice of shorts is his latest effort to stand out among hundreds of UFC fighters, showcasing his flair and personality. Fans got a sneak peek of these vibrant shorts, stirring excitement for his upcoming title defense.



Not the Pioneer of Pink

While newer UFC fans might perceive Sean O’Malley as the first fighter to don pink in the octagon, history tells us otherwise. Swedish fans, in particular, might recall Phil Davis wearing pink shorts against Swedish UFC star Alexander Gustafsson in April 2010. Former UFC champion Rich Franklin also sported pink-accented shorts during his tenure. This tradition of fighters wearing creative shorts has become less common since the UFC’s apparel partnerships, first with Reebok and now with Venum. However, O’Malley’s choice might inspire a resurgence of unique fight wear in the UFC.
