UFC featherweight Bryce Mitchell is launching a special giveaway for his channel members, and the prize package includes something that might raise a few eyebrows: the underwear he wore during his most recent UFC match.
Mitchell announced the giveaway an episode of his podcast ArkanSanity, revealing that the contest is scheduled for July 4th and is open exclusively to paying channel members. With around 20-something members at the time of recording, one lucky fan will be drawn at random to receive the full bundle of match gear.
“Those are the undies I competed in, and I didn’t wash them either,” Mitchell said on the podcast. “So when you get them, just know if you’re gonna display them or whatever, you don’t have to wash them. But if you’re going to wear them, I would definitely wash them.”
The unwashed underwear is far from the only item in the prize package. Mitchell recently competed on June 6th, earning a third-round arm triangle submission victory over the undefeated 21-year-old Santiago Luna with just eight seconds remaining in the final round.
Following the match, he collected the gear provided to him by UFC sponsor Venum and put together what amounts to a solid collection of memorabilia.
The full giveaway package includes multiple shirts, one of which Mitchell wore to the weigh-ins and personally modified by cutting the sleeves off. He described it as his favorite item in the box and plans to sign it with a silver Sharpie before sending it out. Also included are two additional pairs of clean underwear in red and blue camouflage, a long sleeve Under Armour workout shirt, two more shirts of different styles, and two pairs of gym shorts complete with pockets. Rounding out the collection are two pairs of spats, which Mitchell noted he wears under his jeans on cold days.
“All of this stuff is the Venum gear, which sponsors the UFC,” Mitchell explained, adding that the only item he held back was the shoes. “I’m keeping the shoes because I don’t have any nice shoes. I did need those shoes.”
Mitchell framed the giveaway as a thank-you to the fans who have supported him throughout his career.
