The long-awaited debut of the UFC's Reebok fight kits arrived on Tuesday, and reaction from the fighter community has been decidedly mixed, to say the least. For examples of the new gear, click here. Otherwise check out reaction below from the pros as Reebok unveiled the uniforms that will become mandatory attire for all UFC-organized events beginning next month. (This page will be updated throughout the day.)

No offense but if anyone pays $95 for a shirt with my name on the back you're an idiot.

I have really, really enjoyed the MMA media reaction to today's fashion show. Also, I think my tongue is bleeding.

After I made a Star Trek reference about the @ufc uniform, it seems @Reebok took some inspiration. pic.twitter.com/6xGjXJUkNO

If some of the Reebok money went to administration costs for crew in charge of the gear then they got a low ROI at this point. Infuriating
