Framing
Buy the frame off the shelf
We don’t sell frames. Every print is true 2:3, which means a standard frame in the same dimensions takes it as it is — no mat required, no trimming, nothing cropped.

All three are common sizes stocked by every frame shop and most homeware chains. Ask for the frame by its dimensions and you are done.
The size to avoid
18 × 24 is not 2:3 — it is 3:4. It is the most commonly stocked large frame, which is exactly why it catches people out. Forcing a 2:3 print into it means cutting roughly eleven percent off the height.
On these posters that eleven percent is the bottom, which is where the lettering lives — the neon tube name and its reflection, or the brushed signature on the paintings. You would be cropping off the thing that names the fighter. That is why the largest size here is 16 × 24 and not the more common 18 × 24.
Mat or no mat
No mat is the intended look, and it is the cheaper one. The stat cards already carry a generous white margin as part of the artwork, so a mat doubles it and the sheet starts to look lost inside its own frame.
If you do want a mat, buy the next frame size up and have the mat cut to the print’s actual dimensions — do not buy a frame that claims to fit a 2:3 print with a mat already in it, because those are usually cut for 3:4.
Glass and hanging
The two art series are dark, so glass shows a room back at you. Non-glare or acrylic is worth it for those if the wall faces a window. The stat cards are the opposite — mostly white, and they take ordinary glass fine.
Prints ship rolled in a rigid tube, which is what keeps a sheet this size intact in transit. Unroll it face-up, lay it under a couple of heavy books overnight, and it will sit flat in the frame the next day. Fighting a fresh roll straight into a frame is what leaves the corners curling.
