Pic: Dennis Hallman wears a speedo for fight against Brian Ebersole at UFC 133

Photo

UFC 133 featured a welterweight match-up pitting two veteran fighters that have been around forever and are enjoying their late career time shining under the bright lights with the world's largest fight promotion.

And this is how they've chosen to do so.

Dennis Hallman one-upped his opponent, the "hairrow" chested Brian Ebersole, by fighting on the main card of the "Evans vs. Ortiz 2" pay-per-view broadcast wearing a speedo, as seen above.

The horror.

Among those disgusted in "Superman's" choice of Octagon attire was UFC President Dana White who, upon seeing it, quickly tweeted the following:

"WTF!!!! Fighting in that will be illegal after tonight! Anyone want to grapple with hallman?"

When Ebersole pounded Hallman out in the very first round, White was so grateful for his "getting those horrifying shorts off TV" he gave "Bad Boy" a $70,000 bonus.

To make matters worse, Hallman had a "wardrobe malfunction" during the fight, with his twig and two berries on full display for the world to see. There's picture evidence of this but I'll spare you good Maniacs even further horror than you've already been subjected to. And I'll mercifully end this story of a man wearing a speedo on the main card of a major pay-per-view event.

HA. Awesome.

I didn’t want to, but had to. Sucks I didn’t see yours, I would have just promoted yours.

Forget it Donny, you're out of your element.

I saw it riding up while they were on the ground and was very grateful the camera man found another angle.

these are the future of mma

they are number 1 in comfort, performance, and style. No more grabbing the shorts, because you would actually be grabbing ass, and thats not cool. Dennis Hallman has changed MMA forever.

ebersole won 70k

for “get those shorts off TV” bonus, pretty cool i think.

i didn't know what to make of ebersole before this fight. he impressed me here i would have thought this would be much tougher for him

you never know with the clowns which they’re more serious about, the training or the tv time

ebersole hasn’t gotten a lot of tv time through out his career and he has like a million fights. I’m sure it’s the training he’s serious about.

I agree. He spent a lot of time in a bad position at the beginning of the fight which he managed to get out of

and he went right to work with his relatively vicious ground and pound when he spun into Hallman’s guard.

i think i was the only person who found this funny and wasn't offended

it’s just a dude in some speedos, you don’t turn to gay if you look at him, it’s not like he’s a gay medusa

lol most single men are paranoid about their sexuality,....

some are so dumb that any persuasive troll can actually talk them into being gay. which is why attacking the sexuality is the go to plan for most internet trolls who have no other avenue to win that argument. kinda reminds me of Andy from The Office.

i think most single men are paranoid about how there sexuality is percieved,

they probably didn’t care or thought it was funny, but god forbid anyone think they smiled at that so it’s all “ugh this is horrific it offends my eyes” dude go to brazil, that’s all you’re gonna see in rio. macho guys in speedos. it’s funny

it’s odd that online when no one knows who the fuck you are and has no effect on your life at all everyone gets so macho and tries to prove themselves so much more. i really don’t get it.

i’ve only seen a few offices, it’s funny, should really download them all. been seeing dwight in a few films i’ve watched in the past couple of weeks. “super” and “hesher” they’re both pretty cool, super is fancy pants

The Office is pretty good if you can ignore the damn love plots.

That ess is so cheesy. And Jim is the type of person I’d want to punch in the face (not that I would). The show as a whole is good, though.

Ebersole is the fucken man Im so fucken happy he whooped this guys ass

Seriously man he should be cut for wearing that shit wtf!

by Khaos_Warrior on Aug 7, 2011 1:35 AM EDT reply actions  

Youtube dudes are saying he is cut now

After many years of savoring the sweet taste of Fedor’s gizz, it seems that some has shot into my eyes, thus blinding me into thinking Fedor could finish a legend like Dan Henderson, who has never been Ko’d in 36 fights. As always, Dana White had it right all along. Dana truly is God’s gift to Mixed Martial Arts.

The real reason

Bas was pissed at him is that Dennis stole his drawers.

Why, Johnny Ringo, you look like someone just walked over your grave.

Was there really a nut slip?

Fedor "The Can Crusher" Emeilianko IS NOT THE BEST HW EVER , in fact he sucks! he has the most padded record in the history of any combat sport, scratch that in the history of any sport. He has not changed as a fighter , he is still just as good as he was then, only difference is he isn’t fighting freaks and nobodies, I , along with many others have been duped into believing he is great, when clearly he is NOT!

I always thought they were

Maybe it depends on the commission.. I’d wear one man a kick in the nuts with ou one and I’d be out for like an hour maybe he had one and it just got all dislodged while grappling.

by soupdz28 on Aug 7, 2011 3:25 AM EDT via mobile up reply actions  

yeah dislodging is possible, he would be an idiot not to wear one

What the hell is the big deal?

Brock used to wear them in the WWE. So did lot’s of other former wrestlers turned fighters. Why is Dana freaking out like someone just bitch slapped his dead grandmother? They’re just speedos. Where I live in socal more and more younger guys are going for the shorter shorts. Not speedos but close to it. And a lot of guys on Pride Fights wear boxer brief looking trunks that only have about 4 inches of extra material compared to a speedo.

This thing is just ridiculous. That anyone would be offended. It’s like the 90s all over again.

by Tommy J Strada on Aug 8, 2011 8:22 PM EDT reply actions  

"methinks the lady doth protest too much"

The overreaction of Dana and the mob was ridic (whoops. no pun intended). Ok it was not great judgment on Hallman’s part to make the speedo bet in the first place with his so-called friends (with friends like that, who needs enemies?). But at least he was big enough to pay up on his “bet” when he lost. I was LMFAO. Dana and dudes who here “horrified” and “disgusted” need to lighten up, and maybe ask themselves why they are so insecure and paranoid about their own masculinity/sexuality that they even had the impulse to react that way, instead of being all LMFAO. There’s dudes wearing far less in the locker room, so any fan who is or ever was an athlete would be unfazed and laughing all the way. So what’s the BFD? Get over it!
