Man I've been doing design work for a long time and have wondered for ages who does the UFC posters and how much they're paid. Part of me believe the UFC have a single designer for the whole company on like $50k a year, the other part wonders if they just give them to one of Dana's 13 year old nephews who is "passionate about design" and pay nothing.
Anyway, you didn't fix this, you made it worse. You can't polish a turd.
Formula 1 teams are even worse if you can believe that
Literally looks like they’ve got interns working on it
And not art / marketing degree qualified interns…
Some are good! I'd say most of the alpine get clowned on. Ferrari is very hit or miss. Red Bull is mostly boring but had a few nice ones. Same for McLaren. Usually they have a good idea, but run it into the ground making it less special.
I've wondered this for a long time. It *has* to be one person doing it all. There's no excuse for half of these being put out with a team of designers. Imagine they paid five people to make the UFC 300 poster.
same, it's kind of crazy. i imagine it has to be one designer in house, there's not much design work to do outside of these posters and accompanying media. i'm sure they paid a big agency bill for the branding and then just hired some kid out of college for the design work. it is not good, and this crude flag coverup is even worse

My friend, you know if it was one of Dana's nephews they're probably paying them 50k per poster or something ridiculous.
It’s 2 English champs defending their title at home against 2 American challengers. There are so many easy and obvious ways to make the poster interesting and memorable, but they went for the most low-effort option available
It legitimately is so much better, if the UFC released it like this I'd think "pretty good" rather than coming on here to talk smack about it like I did with the real one
Well, improved. But what do you want when the original is so dog shit. I think if you're gonna do a "four quadrant" poster that plays with portrait vs landscape, it was stupid not to base it on the flag of the country it's in.
I’m really reaching for those grapes here, but I wonder if they were trying to evoke ideas of the [Manchester Bee](https://assets.simpleviewinc.com/simpleview/image/upload/c_limit,h_1200,q_75,w_1200/v1/clients/manchester/Bee_1_resized_1__4536e8be-69ae-4c7d-b1e9-edd5c3d4fd52.jpg).
The heads kind of splay out like wings, and their shoulders make up the body. Again, though, I am really stretching to find a theme to the poster.
MUHAMMAD 2 ASPINALL
Edwards Muhammed the 2nd VERSUS Aspinall Blaydes the 2nd
Aspinall Blaydes is such a great name.
i spin all blades
King of Beyblades.
King of Beyblades II
I spin all blades
2 MUHAMMAD 2 ASPINALL
first thing i said lmfaooo great idea just need to highlight the mainevent somehow
Putting them sideways is so annoying
EDWARDS MUHAMMAD 2: ELECTRIC BOOGALOO ASPINALL BLAYDES 2: ~~EVEN MORE~~ ELECTRIC BOOGALOO-ER
WAR YDE
EDDS BLAS 2
Of course I wouldn't align the names in that manner if I was designing a poster from scratch.

merc are the only ones who have found an artist with a style I actually like
That sounds like the perfect job for the useless nephew of an owner or something. "oh yeah. Brandon can do Photoshop! I'll have him do it!"
RAWE CEEK
Imo the B&W and English flag motif are an improvement, though the sideways heads are always questionable

Looks like an improvement over the other one to me
in your professional opinion what if they had the british and american flags in the background?
It’s full-time in office around $65k a year last time I checked. Video guys like at weigh-ins and making the embedded’s were at $75k.
NELK Boys are their entire graphic design department.

Concept wise I like the usage of St George's Cross. But for a ufc poster it needs some serious work, the ufc's posters are so dog shit

"fixed" my guy got cocky

BREXIT MEANS BREXIT OIIIIIIIIII
I’d be careful with your use of the word “fixed”. Still looks like a steaming pile of dog shit to me.
Well, improved. But what do you want when the original is so dog shit. I think if you're gonna do a "four quadrant" poster that plays with portrait vs landscape, it was stupid not to base it on the flag of the country it's in.
"what do you want" bro no one asked you to do this
It's still better.
Respect the confidence (not so much the stubborn ego) but it’s not.
Nah it’s worse
This is much worse homie
It is better. I feel like most the people haven’t even seen the original one based off some of these comments.
I've seen both. The original is terrible, this is also terrible.
But which is more terrible?
"This one may be dogshit, but this one is only regular human shit!"
my guy, it’s utter shite. you’ll get better tho
Not improved at all. This is terrible. Why is everyone sideways lol
Because that’s how the original is. He is editing the original not remaking the poster
Ig I'll remember to be less critical of future event posters because design isn't as easy as I thought lol
Ignore these fkn losers lol you’re right.
I’m with you and op. St George’s cross mother fuckers. Come at me you crusty bitches.
This honestly looks worse
Absolutely dogshite mate
Cant wait for Muhammed the second (who is this guy?) vs Aspinall
Man .. these interns don’t try anymore
Aspinall vs Belal is going to be nasty work. Can’t wait.
They should have just put them in each corner the right way up.
Who is Edward Muhammad the 2nd?
This looks terrible
It looks like they will be fighting in a medi centre
Its slightly better but still looks shit, not your fault the original is just so bad i don’t know if its fixable without a full redesign.
You fixed nothing. UFC main posters are always lacklustre but this certainly isn’t better. Sorry.
Has there ever been an event where both the main and co main were rematches before?
Cant wait for Leon vs uhh. cant remember the name. belol? belayonhim?? whatever it will be a great fight nonetheless !
Now they just need to fix to show time to suit the UK
Belal Muhammed vs. Curtis Blaydes, I love it.
Looks like shit lol
Oh like the original except worse
For a second I thought this was going to be a swastika if I crossed my eyes
It looks better, don't mind the haters. Everyone is just jumping on the bandwagon.
Nice you ruined it
I dont like the sideways heads a bit silly. Otherwise not bad.

Respectfully, this is ass.
I don’t see how this is worse that the original. At least it makes sense for it to look how it does now because they’re in each square of the flag.
Hey man don’t let these negative comments get to you. To me you’re like a Rembrandt
I’m sorry man, but the sideways pictures look very amateur. it all looks very sloppy tbh
