Do you think the UFC should change its belt design?

    This is not an important point I know, but whenever I see the UFC belt getting strapped round someone's waist, I always think it looks cheap and crap, like an old WWE belt.

    Maybe it's just because I am more of a boxing fan, but for me the boxing belts just look a lot classier and better (specifically the WBC one):

    I think the WBC belt looks like a real sports prize, while the UFC belt looks like a WWE fake belt.


    Or am I just talking **** and making a really pointless thread??? :think:lol:

    Is it just me or does all the WWE, WF and so on belts look like cheap knockoffs of the WBA belt?

    Cheers pal, I thought Alvarez got the WBC Jr MW after he beat Rhodes. Did Pacman vacate it?

    Yes, he is too small to continue to fight at junior-middleweight. The heaviest Pac has ever been at the scales was 145lbs for the Clottey fight, it's not feasible to keep fighting there against guys who have to boil down to make 154lbs.

    I don't mind the belt design, the thing I would love the UFC to change is the theme and the intro...

    The rapcore BS is sooo 2000 !!:p

    The UFC belt should be like a martial arts ranking belt, a black one with UFC printed on it ;-)

    agreed, that cheesy gladiator montage at the beginning + the face the pain soundtrack just oozes douchebaggery, mma already gets enough stigma as being a "bloodsport" and "human cockfighting" its time for the ufc to get rid of it imo

    the ring, the lonsdale belt are old school cool. wbc is leaps and bounds above its rival. wba, wbo and ibf look cheap. eagle on the ibf is quite cool. ufc belt looks really good.
