why exactly can't male fighters wear shirts.

[revoltub]

i mean, the women can.

and before you say it, yeah, I know women have breasts. but so do half of the ufc HW's, and im sorry but a sportsbra cover it, why the need for the shirt? Whats the difference? Sure, there is a possibility a woman's breasts might slip out while fighting, but nice.

I think either men should be allowed to wear shirts, or women should only be allowed to wear sports bras. fair is fair.

it would make fights better too. more traction to grapple.

Because it's not illegal for a man to expose his breasts

Where's the pride in being a HW that has to grapple? They have 25 lb arms.

A Cincinnati man is in trouble — for exposing his breasts.


"He's a guy. He's real tall, and he's got a full set of breasts," prosecutor Kevin Donovan told a courtroom Tuesday, according to the Cincinnati Post.


Jerome Mason, 23, six feet tall and 200 pounds, was charged with indecent exposure after going topless on a city street early in the morning of April 22.

I think it would be good for the greasing problem too.

Who the fuck would want to wear a shirt when you're sweating profusely to reduce body temperature.

huh?

I feel like this is the exact equivalent to dudes wearing shirts in the swimming pool ...I'm not giving an opinion either way just throwing that out there .

Shirts aren't allowed in MMA.

The real question is why are the women allowed to wear them?

 

[revoltub]

Have you ever been in a fight, or any highly exhausting, athletic activity? Who the fuck would want to wear a shirt when you're sweating profusely to reduce body temperature.

someone who wants to get a better grip

eh, apples and oranges, but I see what you're saying

Not an actual shirt but there should be nothing wrong with wearing a rash guard. I know there's a few states where amateur fighters have to wear them.

[blaa_kriger]

It's not allowed because it gives an unfair advantage. A lot of grapplers would wear long sleeve rash guards, or long tights like Aoki wears to get better grip.

 

[StoneWT]

Because the people that run MMA are ghey and prefer their men to be shirtless.

Came to say this. Rash guards should be allowed.

It's a lot more practical for an irish fuck like myself who burns easy to wear one swimming, not so much for fighting.
