Adesanya not added to LHW before title fight

I honestly don't see any logic in this, but that seems in line with the rest of the game.

Yeah I’m not here to defend EA’s process. Just stating my observation.

Dillashaw is a flyweight (after 1 loss), Assuncao is a featherweight (no 145 history in UFC), Volk and Max are lightweights, Ferguson is a welterweight, Jones is a heavyweight et cetera et cetera.

I think the only difference is those were done before launch. I remember members of the GC team identifying fighters that they thought should be in multiple divisions and they added them.

I don’t know if they have the same appetite for adding them post launch.

With that said, I wouldn’t be shocked if Adesanya is added next month.

Is it difficult to add to different WCs?

Yes. The same fighter in two weightclasses is from our game's perspective two fighters with the same name.

hmm okay. As long as you get the major ones it's okay. Like Adesanya at LHW (win or lose) is big, I'll be alright without Cody at FLW or Whittaker at WW etc.
