UFC has unveiled the new fighter kits for UFC Noche and we got the buzzing info. The first live event of UFC happening at The Sphere will be a grand affair so a new kit is a must! And there is more! Dana White spent $20 million on productions, hired the best Hollywood directors and crew for the short films, and planned the biggest event.

The history of Mexico’s contribution to combat sports will be shown on screen as the fighters go at each other’s throats wearing new gloves and gear. “The first fight of the night will be the beginning of time,” said Dana White. “The last fight will be the future. We’re going to tell all these stories throughout the night,” he added.

Not only the movies and visual effects take people’s breath away but the fighter kits will also add to the element. There is a special nod to the Gods of Aztec mythology. Also, the UFC Noche badge and the official date of Mexico’s independence are on the jerseys. The mastermind behind these kits is Heidi Noland and her team. They started designing the fight gear in March.
