We are thrilled to be in association with UFC fighter, Caolan Loughran. A proud Irishman, Caolan fits right into our roots.
Caolan has always loved O'Neills and has been wearing our sportswear for years! We thought that he would be a great athlete represent the brand. O’Neills has is Caolan's brand of choice when it comes to clothing for training so it’s a pleasure to provide him and his team with the bespoke teamwear and custom kit he needs to perform.
Caolan was the 2018 Clan Wars and Cage Legacy Champion and the number 1 ranked fighter in Ireland. Caolan moved to Liverpool in 2019, joined Team Kaobon, and turned pro in MMA, starting with four first-round stoppages. With a 16-month Covid layoff, he returned to fight for LFL. In 2022, Caolan signed with Cage Warriors and fought in April's inaugural bout sporting Kildress Wolfe Tones in O'Neills GAA shorts. Caolan was also spotted in O'Neills gear during interviews and post-fight. He won the Cage Warriors Bantamweight World Championship in May 2023, walking around in an O'Neills jersey. Caolan signed with the UFC in July 2023 and debuted in September in Paris. By March 2024, he had won his inaugural UFC fight in Atlantic City once again wearing O'Neills gear.
His partnership with us here at O'Neills sportswear was officially launched in February 2025 and has now been officially announced as our newest brand athlete prior to UFC London. We believe that Caolan’s strong Irish heritage, impressive fighting career, and values he represents are all in support of O'Neills commitment to supporting sportsmen who believe in excellence and authenticity. Choosing to wear O'Neills sportswear throughout his career, from press conferences to celebrating victories after fights, is a natural extension, and he is the perfect representative for the company. The endorsement reflects their shared love for Irish heritage and sporting achievement.
As a brand, O'Neills understands the importance of providing elite athletes with top-tier custom teamwear and custom kit to ensure they perform at their peak. We are proud to provide Caolan with the custom teamwear and custom kit he needs, both for training and competition, continuing the legacy of excellence.
