Man thanks for this one dude! The statistic is ridicilous and proves the low effort EA put on the Roster. Forward this to the Devs!!

Agreed. When you start looking at the actual numbers, it starts to look really bad for EA. Why on earth there are non-MMA fighters in the game *smh*. I'd rather have x 2 extra legit fighters added instead. I don't want to moan and whatever as this is just a game but...the numbers look bad. There is a decent amount of time between UFC3 to now to get more fighters added. I'd like to know the % of new active fighters added (excluding non-MMA).

Thanks for your effort here. It's interesting to view the roster in the way you've presented the stats.

To be completely fair to the devs, probably about half of the roster either has few fights, is inactive, is on a losing streak, or is in danger of being cut. However, there’s probably easily 100+ fighters that would make for solid additions.

Well they only added 19 new active MMA fighters, so about 8% of the roster. They removed 58 fighters (most of which aren’t with the company anymore) from the previous entry.

Yeah they really dropped the ball on rosters. The most damning stat to me is guys who have been ranked 18+ months. Most of them should’ve been in.

[SMOKEZERO]

So did they abandon the fight picks from 2&3 with this shallow roster this game?
