Irish Fans Are Really Not Happy With Reebok's 'Ignorant' UFC Dublin T-Shirt

Earlier today, we brought you the almost humorously stupid decision by Reebok to take a scissors to the border and leave Northern Ireland out of their UFC Ireland Map t-shirt. While we don't like to be overly critical, sometimes you just have to say damn, that was one hell of a fuck up.

Reebok's MMA division may be saying exactly that now given that Irish MMA fans have really let them know what they think of their design. It's just a bizarre decision to make. Someone had to weigh things up and decide 'No, it'll be better if we cut that out. No one will notice'.

People have noticed.

The response from Irish MMA fans on /r/mma was not exactly kinder on Reebok's efforts.

For all the understandable anger at the t-shirt, this was a fairly good summation of what may have happened.

We're going to take a wild stab in the dark and suggest that these probably won't be on sale at the 3 Arena on Saturday night and if they are, Reebok should promote anyone who manages to sell even one of them.
