eeyaaa...i dunno....
seems insincere. I don't believe the UFC is giving in to 'tradition'...they just want mo money!
I will always associate masked fighting with fake wrestling....but I not Mexican!
They have a rich tradition with masks and it has been a part of their culture for some time!
Personally, I think this opens the door for an onslaught of 'national' tradition.
I think Mr White has erred.

The move to allow Perez to wear the luchador mask is a wise one by UFC management, because it is another step toward reaching the fight-crazed Mexican fan base.

Is unclear to me how a Mexican donning a mask makes him ...more(?) Mexican.
what if if Georges St-Pierre wanted to wear a toque?
maybe Chuck Liddell has a case for a yarmulka (sp)?
face paint??
yep. Those are ridiculous....and the door is now open.
