Diego Ferreira Rookie Signatures RC Auto #RS-DFR 221/249 | 2021 Panini Select UFC
A numbered RC autograph from the very first Panini Select UFC set — Diego Ferreira, card #RS-DFR from the Rookie Signatures insert within 2021 Panini Select UFC, numbered 221/249. Only 249 copies of this card exist. The Select design is premium and dramatic: the deep black chrome die-cut frame with the bold gold "SELECT 2021" logo at the top centre, intricate geometric X-pattern cut-outs on either side, and the RC badge bottom right in gold. The photo is absolutely electric — Ferreira shirtless mid-flying kick, leg fully extended, tattoo sleeves blazing on both arms, black UFC shorts, pure athletic explosion frozen in time. Then that bold blue ink signature sweeps across the Panini-authenticated holographic autograph panel — "The autograph is guaranteed by Panini America, Inc." The back confirms: card #RS-DFR, 221/249 stamped in gold foil, "ROOKIE" in massive gold chrome letters, and the same flying kick photo in full colour against the Octagon canvas.
