Once introduced to UFC athletes for fight week, Venum has now made the UFC Adrenaline by Venum FIGHT WEEK equipment available to fans around the world at ufcstore.com, and while the looks will turn heads, the quality and performance of the equipment will prepare anyone for the gym, field, field or Octagon.
“Receiving your UFC kit is always a real treat,” said South African prospect Cameron Saaiman, who can travel light when he comes to the United States to compete. “It’s something that I really think about, like I pack for it when we come here because I know we’re going to get it. (Laughs) The quality is crazy.
How good is it? Rising heavyweight star Mick Parkin doesn’t want to take off his gear when he returns home to England.
“I get the first backpack and so many clothes, then you get a new bag every time, so I’m fully equipped for the UFC now; that’s all I wear,” Parkin said. “I never buy clothes myself anyway, but I have so much UFC stuff, and sometimes I come in in a full tracksuit and my trainer is like, ‘Oh, look at you.’ But then he looks down and is like, “Oh, I have the UFC track too,” because he wears them constantly too. But the thing is incredible.
And sized to fit everyone from heavyweights like Parkin to a young woman known for moving from the flyweight to the strawweight division, Amanda Ribas. Oddly enough, Ribas liked her first Venum gear bag so much that she didn’t want to use it.

“It’s funny, because at the beginning, when I received my first bag of Venum, I didn’t want to use it,” she laughs. “I was going to the gym with my wrong bag and my mom was like, ‘Amanda, please use the other one.’ “But it’s my first. »
Eventually, Ribas was convinced to break in her equipment, and she hasn’t looked back. In fact, when she wears it on fight week, it reminds her that she’s in the UFC and among the best in the world.
“I feel like the Yellow Power Ranger,” laughs Ribas. “It’s really special because Venum is a traditional brand for fighters, and when I put mine on, I’m like, yes, these are my warrior clothes.”
