At first glance, they appear to be a slight upgrade from the Reebok designs with some distinguishable touches – lots of lines and angles.

The new Venum uniforms will be worn by fighters for the first time on Saturday at UFC on ABC 2 from the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, marking the official end of the previous six-year deal with Reebok.
