Pic: Petr Yan scores custom shorts ahead of highly anticipated UFC 333 trilogy

UFC Bantamweight contender Petr Yan has unveiled his custom fight shorts ahead of his trilogy showdown with Merab Dvalishvili at UFC 333. The highly anticipated rematch, set for October 24, 2026, at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi, marks the final chapter in a rivalry split across two previous meetings.

Yan’s new Venum gear reflects his Russian heritage, blending the colors of the national flag with traditional motifs like a sword, shield, and wings inspired by St. Michael.

The design also incorporates his nickname, 'No Mercy,' into a crest featuring the Russian flag’s hues. Yan joins a select group of UFC fighters with personalized fight kits, including names like Jon Jones and Alexander Volkanovski, as he prepares to settle the score in one of the event’s marquee bouts.
