Joe Rogan revealed on his most recent Fight Companion for UFC Beijing that the promotion might be making a change to their fingerless glove. Co-host Brendan Schaub brought the topic of eye pokes up, and how Neil Magny had blamed his poor performance against Santiago Ponzinibbio partially on a poke.

”That’s a real problem man, and there is a solution in the works,” Joe said. “I can’t talk about it, I’m sworn to secrecy.”

”They have a better glove design that they’re working on right now,” Rogan revealed. “That someone is working on. I can’t say anything. I’ve already said too much.”

Joe Rogan just revealed there’s a secret new UFC glove in the works


Any guess what these new gloves will look like?

I've always wondered why after the Pride FC purchase, they never changed to those gloves. I know that there's been a "cage vs ring" debate for years, and the Zuffa team were always saying that the octagon was part of the UFC brand, but those gloves weren't, they could have adopted those gloves years ago.

Here's to hoping

The article pisses me off because it says that Magny blamed things on an eyepoke but that's just not true. Schaub's dumbass said that but Magny flat out said he was punched in the eye.

thats just what i always thought would work. mitten type glove covering the ends of the fingers with an open palm. you could still grasp but the ends of the fingers are covered.
Not a bad idea actually. ..

Rogan talking about new UFC gloves like he's about to drop who shot JFK. Where's Eddie Bravo?
Are they really wearing gloves though?

You believe that shit?

Have you actually personally witnessed a fighter putting on gloves in front of you?

I don't believe they have on gloves for one bit

Bunch of sheep...
