Sean OConnell: the only argument can be made for him was he had 2 fight of the nights and LHW doesnt have alot of fighters in it so that was a division that needed more people. Oliveria and Santos wouldve been solid additions but that doesnt mean they were high in demand or that it was a travesty that they were added. The main reason the game adds these lower fighters is for offline depth primarily. They dont expect people online to pick Matthews or O'Connell regularly. I dont think people wouldve chosen Oliveria or Santos much either going off of how fighters were rated in UFC 2 and that most people only picked the top 10 in each division anyway. Anyway, thats just my two cents. I can guarantee people are going to have complaints about someone being in the roster who shouldnt be or someone who was left off the roster. Until the game has all 500 UFC fighters in it, some people will have complaints and thats fine.

As someone who only plays career mode I agree. I don’t particularly like having to play generated fighters up until I reach the top 10. It would be nice to fight some lower ranked fighters on the way up too so I’m happy with the additions

Honestly, they did such a good job getting the majority of the best fighters in at launch and through the first few patches, I'd rather they focus on prospects.

Jake Matthews has been a prospect to watch for awhile but he hasn't panned out. Kevin Lee fought Jake Matthews and it was billed as a pretty big battle of prospects. He's also fought and lost to James Vick. He's a decent fighter.

It was a bar fight and he’s a top 2 LHW. I would assume he is still in.

Well see. It's felonious sounding.

It happened back in August, even before May/Mac.... If UFC had a problem they would've did something a while ago
