Was there a explanation for the Reebok diaper?

[mb23100]

I remember reading the forums and everyone was laughing about the diaper Junior Albini had on. Was there ever an explanation for as to why he had this on?

 

[capnlarge]

I think he had the legs of his shorts pinned back with safety pins. Should not have been allowed IMO

 

[DuncanFan819]

It was Reebok's subconscious metaphorical acknowledgement that this whole deal was shitty.

He had diarrhea

 

[Mr hanky]

Yep. He had trouble with his shorts in his first fight (due to huge thighs) and decided to "solve" the problem in his second fight- that's the output.

Sounds believable, but do you have a source for this?

I had heard it was because of his “baby” gimmick.

 

[peterparker66]

yes Reebok was sick of all the cry baby comments about the reebok sponsorship the fighters were making that they thought they would make them look the part

 

[mooseman17]

I thought it was because his nickname is "Baby".

Surely he could just have custom made shorts, rather than forcing a man to make a diaper out of them.

But what we would discuss on sherdog then?

Maybe you could create an actual MMA diaper instead of talking about it... some need them.

 

[rambosabeast]

It was beyond bad. Death may die before that is forgiven.

You have to be making Conor or Ronda money to get any custom reebok stuff.

Reeblok is diversifying.
