UFC flyweight Jeff Molina was left stunned at the backlash he received for wearing Pride shorts during his latest fight.
Molina remained unbeaten in the UFC by winning a controversial split decision against Zhalgas Zhumagulov in Las Vegas last weekend. The 24-year-old found himself dealing with a lot of attention from fans over his decision to wear the UFC's custom uniform in recognition of Pride Month.
The UFC created the fight kit to help raise money and awareness for the LGBTQIA+ Center of Southern Nevada. Molina, who wore the rainbow-coloured shorts in his fight against Zhumagulov, revealed some of the vulgar comments he received on social media.
