A couple of things about this card. First, with the limited CAF spots and the limited roster, it is very difficult to try and mirror the number of shows/fights that the UFC produces at the start of my universe. Typically, I will mirror the first handful of shows and let my results dictate matchups moving forward. Also, due to the limited roster, everyone is available in my universe. Only person I am not using is Bruce Lee. Age is not a factor in this world.
That being said, since we are limited this year, I am not creating any cards for Fight Night or UFC on Fox cards. They are all PPV cards and there is one a month. You can see the results from my first card above.
I have everything scheduled through UFC 181 right now. Some interesting matchups down the road include: Gegard Mousasi v Phil Davis, Robbie Lawler v Nick Diaz, Big Nog v Shogun, Royce Gracie v Mark Munoz, Johny Hendricks v Rory MacDonald and I am going to put on the Wandy v Sonnen fight. Also, GSP will make a return down the road and if things work out, Hendo is gonna get his shot at Jon Jones. I have created ELO rankings that help determine matchups and title shots.
