Twitter reacts to new UFC legacy belt
Reactions were decidedly mixed on the social network when the UFC unveiled the new championship belt.

“When you’re finished changing, you’re finished.”
Benjamin Franklin
“The new UFC Belt looks like it turns you into the Power Ranger who doesn’t have his s*** together and also thinks he can take on Connor McGregor in a street fight.”

That's…huh…that's not an upgrade from the current belt. At least not on first glance. https://t.co/VtWrPlKp1b

I’m not much of a belt designer, but I feel like this one hits all the required points:
Larger than a belt that holds up pants ☑️
Gold ☑️
Shaped like an octagon ☑️
Says UFC on it ☑️
Has other shiny shit on it ☑️Checks out to me. What’s so bad about it? 🤷♂️

the new UFC belt looks like something the Avengers would insert into a space time continuum to go back in time and tell whoever designed this belt to try again. #UFCBrooklyn pic.twitter.com/J5PvyZY9yT
