"Surely it’s the Trevor Wittman gloves" - Fans speculate as UFC 300 weigh-in schedule teases new equipment reveal

The UFC 300 weigh-in day schedule recently sent MMA fans into a frenzy. The timetable for the weigh-ins shows that the UFC has planned a special equipment announcement for the day, with many speculating that the promotion will reveal new gloves for its fighters.

MMA journalist John Morgan reported the news on X and indicated that the weigh-ins will take place at the Apex and include a "new UFC equipment announcement and presentation" segment.

Fellow MMA reporter Amy Kaplan also took to X and reported that the UFC planned to debut new gloves on Friday after the official UFC 300 weigh-in ceremony. She wrote:

"There will be a "New UFC Glove Launch presentation" on Friday after the official weigh-ins. It's unclear if this will be special branded gloved for the event or actually a new design of the gloves."

Fans soon flocked to Morgan's post's comments section to express their thoughts.

One fan speculated that the new gloves would be MMA coach Trevor Wittman's unique design and wrote:

"Surely it's the Trevor Wittman gloves."

Another fan wrote:

"Please be new gloves."

One user speculated that the new equipment could be groin cups and wrote:

"Finally the hat steel cups!!!!"
