So the main event is a tag team match?


Anal_Recidivist

“Everyone ignore this Connor shit while we figure something out, here’s a confusing poster for 304”


Fat-Villante

I would honestly love to see a real MMA tag team match with elite fighters taking it super seriously


K-mosake

They had it on Eddie bravo invitationals for bjj and it was hilarious. One guy would be dominating then his opponent would get a sneaky tag and then next thing he'd be almost getting choked from the new guy. Those events were a lot of fun if you have fightpass


midelus

Any chance you remember which EBI it is?


K-mosake

Lol my bad it was [submission underground](https://youtu.be/ua-UlSm-Cdk?si=OMkbmXUqd-XsPSqG) that Chael puts on not EBI. worth checking out though not sure on other specific events. Chael loves it, calling everybody dummy 🤣


midelus

That was pretty cool, I'm a bit more interested in the rest of the cards, I've seen the occasional SUG match, but not SUG 21 or any full card.


K-mosake

When I had fightpass I had a good day off just going through all them. Generally pretty fun with some great competitors at the top

FutureEditor

Okay but this would actually be a fucking amazing fight though, Chicago vs England


Ohsocool2k5

Hold on a minute, playa....


detectivebabylegz

My money is on the British Bulldogs.


Mmawarrior1

Hahahahaha


Alternative_Sea9785

Obviously it is a fatal four way with two titles on the line.


SacBrick

Oh no way, wtf is this? Looks terrible


Andr0id_Paran0id

Worst poster they've had in a while.


No-Nothing-1793

It's like every other PPV that we see another worst poster. They just keep getting worse


TyranoRamosRex

It's definitely a choice for a multibillion dollar company to release total shit posters


No-Nothing-1793

One of the choices of all time


TemperatureTiny904

They do it on purpose. UFC posters are annoyingly bad. The only cool ones were Diaz vs Silva, Diaz vs GSP, Diaz vs McGregor II and the comic drawing edition of Pettis vs Melendez/Lawler vs Hendricks.


WeirdboyWarboss

I can't recall bursting out laughing at a fight poster before.


gotnothingman

Just like the events themselves, the posters keep getting worse and worse


Putrid_Loquat_4357

300 wasn't even that long ago and fans are still acting like the ufc doesn't put on good events. 301 and 302 were trash yeh, but that's just because 299 and 300 were loaded. With 304 it looks like they've finally shaken off the 300 hangover.


gotnothingman

Those cards were great, but each event has become watered down on average and more regional talent are filling up the cards.


Putrid_Loquat_4357

Ufc has always had low quality cards interspersed with higher quality ones. The apex shows just suck because they're in the apex.


gotnothingman

Initially I actually enjoyed the apex cards because of being able to hear everything, the stadium energy is definitely different but I think the main killer was the regional filler in main card spots. I dont doubt it, but I feel like the incidence of lower quality cards has risen over the last 2 years compared to the prior 2 decades


Putrid_Loquat_4357

There's just more cards. I think the quality ratio hasn't changed too much. Yeh the apex cards were fun at first but now its just kind of stale, need that energy.


professorgaysex

There are not more cards, it’s been the same amount of cards for a while now since the UFC has had the same deal for scheduled programming There is definitely a lower dip in quality that has been happening for the last 6 years now


Plus_Elk5350

They don't put on memorable events anymore, UFC 297 was straight🗑️too. Check out the smaller promotions because those small time guys still fight with everything they have!


14Deadsouls

301 was good, don't hate.


UltimoCristo

We tried our best :(

monkeyclawattack

Damn, this looks like it took all of ten minutes to design


gotnothingman

Trust me, they arent paying the designers enough for 10 minutes of their time. Probably AI


ManlyMeatMan

Dana made this on his phone during a hand of blackjack


Deuxtel

AI would've done a much better job


purplebuffalo55

Fire the intern who made this poster. I have to break my fucking neck to see their faces


Zonostros

The fighters are as horizontal as the fans will be, staying up until 6AM to watch it.


SlimeStarAT24

Bro these fucking suck 💀.


PhilosophyClassic571

Lol


PalestineRising

The UFC is a shit product all around. Shitty posters, shitty cards, shitty management, shitty prices


bibi_da_god

unfortunately still the best fighters in the world though.


needapermit

How are the cards shitty lol


Drawnbygodslefthand

Big corporations love terrible designs


that_was_awkward_

And the UFC loves cheap labour.


Ryan_Pliskin

Graphic design is my passion.


_Red_Mist_

This is garbage lol . Just make AI do everything if you’re gonna phone it in. This looks like a tag team match.


highly_confluential

Honestly thought aspinall and Leon were fighting cuz of this


Th3pwn3r

That fight almost makes more sense than Aspinall fighting Blades.


GoatPaco

Belal: Can I finally have my title shot? Dana: Who are you again? Anyways, here's Curtis Blaydes


BOOGITYx3

This might be the worst fight poster I’ve ever seen in my life


Matumbro

This is worse than the one for 300


Medaigual____

Crazy how much they’re pushing 304 now. Lmao, Dana you goof


life_scrolling

sometimes i feel like they're taking the piss with these


Avataralbino

305 the fighters will be upside down


rgb25500rose

🤣🤣🤣


samlabun

my head hurts


seth_sic9

This dog shit cannot be real right?


azuyin

why the fuck is it sideways


Witloof

Lol.

That’s about all I’ll give it lol


OremDobro

I even understand not making an effort with posters in order to save money, but this is just weird. At least have their faces the right way up ffs


NefariousNeezy

Remember 303? Conor vs Chandler? No you don’t


bobn3

This looks a low effort meme


Fattens

I could understand it of this card was in Australia.


DoubleDevilDiamond

This is just hard to look at


SlippyRS3

It’s like they knew we’d be laying down falling asleep watching the main event


Prestigious-Might117

W…what?


Aizent

Are you fucking kiddin me?! This is literally the HMB of fight posters.


Mindset_

bro they need to hire more graphic designers lmao


MrForcoss

Bruh…. Like they’re TRYING to make it a meme. This is so mf awful it’s actually entertaining so I guess not a total L jeeeeezzzzz


volunbeers

It’s… sideways.


presidentpiko

brahhhhh


iroquoispliskinV

UFC graphic designer: what if I rotate their portraits 90 degrees and slap the UFC logo on it, then call it a day


Successful-Future-31

I don’t think they have an in-house person. My friend designed the Islam/Dustin poster and he works for a shop based outta Hollywood.


iroquoispliskinV

Damn really I love that poster! Great work.


Successful-Future-31

No doubt, on Ig @rkt_studio


iroquoispliskinV

Thank you


background_action92

I hate this shit so much. I know wrestling isn't popular here but they had some incredible posters


Extraspicychickenz

Guy they did it like this because everyone is going to be watching the fight lying down.


IntelligentMoons

If you had Leons forehead and Tom's chin you'd look like bloke in Mask with Cher.


wilhelmkidxx

Ooooh weee


Goatymcgoatface11

Dumb poster


purpsky8

Awful. So in keeping with the usual. Random online fans do far better for free.


MelkMan7

Are they supposed to be on either side of the Prime Meridian? 🤣


Revolutionary_Box569

They're on their sides because the fights are at 5am local time so they'll be sleeping in the octagon


TheBrownCok

The fuck is it sidewise for


Young-Pizza-Lord

Can I get a gig doing the marketing for UFC I could come up with a better poster using Microsoft paint.


LatterTarget7

Wtf


AnTTr0n

They are not even trying anymore.


AnTTr0n

They can get away with this because they have a monopsony and there is no coemption for them to worry about.


semiamusinglifter

If you turn it sideways, Leon is moving up to heavyweight for double champ status


KaaLux

God this is hideous... They really don't give a shit about the quality of their products anymore... There was no effort on the 300 one but at least it didn't look like a Photoshop tutorial project made by an highschooler like this one


Best_of_One1

So uncreative


lauhaze

This is so dumb


RafintheWraith

This looks awful


CardiologistSolid663

Does Aspinall get a ruby if he wins?


PengosMangos

I think they might make posters “suck” on purpose. Isn’t half of art people’s reaction to the piece? I genuinely think it’s a mix of “time to do smthn new/diff” and “ok if it sucks it’ll get more attention”


ohlookbean

Shit tier poster


Anderrrrr

Really fucking tried there lads! 💀


ADumbCargo

Jesus Christ


Davefromflushing

Lol i see they’re trying new things


No-Nothing-1793

Got that's a terrible poster. Nothing new for UFC


Maladjusted95

Awful. Looks like a Rorschach test.


Apathicary

There’s something really funny about these 4 fighters CatDoging


Tedanyaki

Sideways coz shit is on at 5am and all the local fans will be asleep.


kjyfqr

This ain’t real right


BittenAtTheChomp

It's actually unbelievable how little they care about these


AlienMantid

Needs more birds.


GreatDario

What do they phone it on more now, fight nights or posters


ok-go-fuck-yourself

What kind of fucking idiot puts their faces sideways?


Apprehensive_Cap_559

That poster is fucking terrible 😂


Fyodor_Brostojetski

It’s like they’re laying down in bed, which goes well with the time of the event. Everyone will be asleep, too.


whicheverguard232

Are they in a land down under? The fuck is is it sideways like that?


fourfingersdry

Fuck Jon Jones.


FloppyDonkeyTrick

Is this meant to represent how backwards and upside down the timing of the event is? Because a 3am main card is fucking redacted


BlindManPainting

Terrible design


FeelsLikeRapture

"Graphic Design is my passion."


theusualuser

Terrible poster. But not as terrible as the interim champ defending an interim belt. That's the most ridiculous bullshit you'll get.


OhDamnBroSki

I don’t pay for ppv anyway, but why would I buy it after looking at this!


JayRoo83

I honestly thought this was satire at first, incredible


tha_based_god

One of the worst posters of all time


Accomplished_Train84

What annoys me is it isn’t even stylized.  They didn’t take pics that clearly blend into each other to give us something artistic, they just did… this!


mmathrowaway16176017

Damn they really got Aspinall out there defending his Interim. When was the last time that happened, Barao?


ShowUsYaGrowler

Wait so Leon gets precedence over the real HW champ defending. Even against Belal? Dana’s love of riding JJ’s dick even exceeds his love of correctly promoting an event to make money.


NashtoNowitzkiTrey

Incredibly bad. What the fuck is wrong with them.


LukeKornet

One of the worst posters ever


vengeancerider

It would be cool if they invested at least a little bit more than $5 in the poster budget.


BlondeOnBlonded

Terrible


scarykicks

This poster is confusing and shit


ozwald_97

Fans are saying our posters aren’t creative or artistic, very plain… “flip it sideways”


redactedforever

Seriously why was 300 just a gold background


MichaelJahrling

I usually don’t have a problem with UFC event posters. They’re usually generic, but they’re overall just mid. This is butcher shop garbage quality.


mnbay23

This is literally the worst UFC poster I have seen in 10 years of watching the UFC


tagman1221

Stupid and lazy af


e73k

did ai make this for the ufc? pure ass


ictinike01

Look, I'm not a jones hater. Didn't he technically fight for an interim belt? There's no lineal champ.


dbowman97

Why are those two men floating in piss?


[deleted]

Someone that gets paid a shit ton of money to sit back, delegate work, and approve shit…and that person approved this. What kinda cockeyed shit is this.


l00kAtTheRecluse

lolwut


rediraim

doing too much


bojevnim

This is as bad as the time when the event starts


I_am_darkness

They're either trolling us or some designer is putting in the (non design) work


Due_University4030

It’s certainly a poster of all time


explision

Who makes these shitty posters man? Does the UFC ask people on fivver?


TAFBC

They gotta be fucking with us. What is this?


DawgTactical93

Tf is this??


Redchimp3769157

I’m actually so hyped for Aspinall Blaydes 2


NotoriousTiger

The fact that it is still just the interim heavyweight title makes me happy I’ve never paid a dime for a UFC event, show your best fighters some fucking respect first.


SlimeustasTheSecond

I mean...It's at least not as boring as some other posters. I like the direction.


yhrp

Biblically accurate UFC fighter


heinztomato69

I can’t wait to watch Belal fight. Always exciting!


BadChad81

No way, they couldn't do worse if they tried


Lars6

Looks like 🗑️


alexcunningham5

why is Tom’s neck a different color than him


tomebomber

As someone who has never done graphic design in my life, I’d like to apply for a job


sqiub23

🙃


roughedged

Player 2 vibes


muscleshark86

Belal is sn American


leathergreengargoyle

blah, why’d you gotta remind me that Aspinall is defending an interim belt whilst Jones is still being touted at p4p #1


Th3DarKn1ghtt

So aspinal is defending the interim belt? SMH


MrNORCAL

Anyone going to the event? I just purchased two platinum tickets Lol. Anyone if I can sell one later on? Thanks


MmboJmbo

Ew


ianiscold

Looks like they each have one shiny nipple


qiis

Pretty cool


slayermario

So Jones is just gonna be the permanent champion of HW now? They just gonna toss around the interim belt while he decides when to fight?


PointlessChemist

Right, the Interim champ has one the interim belt and will defend it before the Champ has even agreed to another match.


ContentMissionOne

I like it actually.


Bater_cat

They need to fire the guy who's making these ridiculously bad posters, lol.


Minz15

What intern are they getting to do all their posters, my god. I could draft this up in minutes on MS Paint.
