MMA is somewhat of a circus for grown ups. Any given weekend there’s a number of events that promise to deliver on MMA skill and entertainment value. One such event took place in UK last night. While there was a number of interesting match ups on the Cage warriors card and a number of interesting finishes one particular moment went viral.
And while it might seems like an isolated case, this exact scenario happened to Kelvin Gastelum ahead of clash with Israel Adesanya.

During the obligatory check of his gear prior to getting in the cage one competitor dropped trou and left his cup in plain sight.
Lando Vannata suffered a humiliating submission defeat when he faced Charles Jourdain earlier this year at UFC Fight Night: Lemos vs. Andrade. It wasn’t a dishonorable effort or a subpar stoppage that led to the loss. Vannata had no choice but to pull his trunks up after they had dropped during the surrender.
MMA fans on Twitter were quite interested in the wardrobe malfunction incident. The loss was described as one of MMA’s most humiliating submission defeats by fan who shared the incident.

Another fan immediately brought up Keith Peterson’s post-fight intervention. The referee attempted to assist Vannata in pulling her trunks up.
Keith Peterson trying to dress him made it so much worse.
