UFC Fans in a Frenzy as Bizarre Promo Featuring Kamaru Usman, Luke Rockhold, Paulo Costa & Others Takes Them by Surprise

The UFC does a pretty good job promoting its fighters and events. However, the promotion made a rather questionable promotional video for the upcoming UFC 278. Fighters like Luke Rockhold, Paulo Costa, Kamaru Usman, and Leon Edwards were seen in the video among others.

The promotion made a video showing the beauty of Salt Lake City, where UFC 278 will take place. But many fans felt the video was absurd.

Fight fans had a wide range of reactions to the video. A particular fan thought it wasn’t modern enough for 2022.

The video did not impress a fan from Salt Lake City.

On the other hand, a Twitter user found it hilarious.

A person even compared the video to Disney.

Another person commented about the fighter’s acting.

A social media user shared a Francis Ngannou meme clip which might have summed up their thoughts.

A Twitter user also tried to wonder about the circumstances behind the production of the video.

The video also left a UFC enthusiast confused.

Several fight fans thought the video was hilarious. But the fights are expected to be absolute bangers with deadly athletes in the Octagon facing each other.
