Individual Sport?

The walkout shirts were slightly different, I believe based on country of origin, but that was also very confusing, as I saw many guys I know to be american wearing other colors, I believe Jeremy Stephens, born in Iowa and training in So Cal came out in the colors of Mexico, so there is always that.

Many fighters are willing to give up everything to get into the spotlight, but very few are on the brink of the UFC. Even with all of the controversy surrounding the new Olympic style random drug testing policy and the Reebok sponsorship, the UFC is still the king of the cage.
