What makes you think Joanna won't try to hold both?

She could try, but know way she's beats Shevchenko. Zero chances. No way.

Do you really think they're going to have 4 different women's divisions in the game? I don't. They didn't really put too much effort into the women in UFC2.

It's going to be amazing, just watch.

Yes I think they will.

145 is a little bit of an enigma but I think business is about to pick up. If they can get 7 or 8 fighters that are unique to the weight class they can fill in the rest with some 135 pounders like Holm, Tate and Zingano.

125 is deeper than 135 pounds and the 115'ers who struggled to make weight will move up. Plus, once the UFC adds a weight class to the roster it eventually brings a talent surge .

They probably won't be the deepest weight classes but I still expect 15-20 fighters in 135-115 and a solid 8-10 at 145 when the game releases.

Another reason I believe this is because even if 135 and 115 hemorrhage talent to 125, there are a lot of fighters at 135 and 115 that will be added in the next game.

Alexa Grasso
Irene Aldana
Pearl Gonzalez
Cynthia Calvillo
Tonya Evinger (I think she ends up in the UFC)
Lina Lansberg
Livia Souza (same as Evinger)
Angela Hill
Nina Ansaroff
Cortney Casey

More fighters outside the UFC at 125 than at 145. Thye only made 145 because Cyborg is a draw and cant make 135. Also Bellator was slowly building a 125 division and the UFC is trying to cut them off.

I think they will have the 125 division as long as that season of TUF airs before or even slightly after the game releases. Also they had a ton of women in UFC 2. I cant think of a significant woman UFC fighter who wasnt in the game.
