Random question I know, but this has been bugging me for a while now. I remember watching a UFC event where the winner of each match was given a Breitling, does anyone remember which model was given? I also remember the fighters completely ignoring the watch they were given, as they were still pumped from winning the fight (I was like, "Dude, you're getting a Breitling, get excited!").

I do not remember any UFC giving out Breitling watches unless they were giving them out in the earlier UFC's. Makes me think twice about joining them now, but i do remember Frank Mir wearing one..

I feel a little silly answering my own question, but after doing a lot more research online, I found a Ultimate Fighter thread that talks about this.

The watches were prizes in season two or three, and according to MrJellyneck, "The watch given looked to be an Avenger Seawolf which is a basic 3 hand automatic with date window."

Here's the link to the thread: http://www.sherdog.net/forums/showthrea ... 2&t=392512

I think the thread is pretty awesome because it's a lot of MMA people talking about Breitlings, and the majority say they are way better than Rolex. :thumbsup

Fedor, you're a MMA fighter? I've done some training off and on, but I keep getting into freak accidents that prevent me from getting serious. (Maybe some one's trying to tell me I shouldn't be a MMA fighter)

Me personally i do not, but my screen name does. #1 HW in the world.
Good find though, although Sherdog is full of morons.

It was the winner of The Ultimate Fighter II if I remember correctly. A guy name Kendall won it. Yellow faced.
