In my mind there is no version of the future that will even put him in a title eliminator type fight.

    Adesanya is ranked lower than Branch but he is young and evolving. It may not happen burn I could see a path for him to be in a title elimator type match in a year from now.

    That is why him and Zabit to me are the ones to have. That is why Blaydes was perfect at the time as was Covington.
    I'm not a fortune teller so I have no idea whether Branch will be a top 5 guy or not. He could be. I do know that if he beats Jacare in November he will likely be a top 5 guy. I would hate for the game to not have a top 5 guy simply because we werent sure he can beat Jacare. Also it would suck to not have a guy who was a dominant champ in another promotion when the game currently has all of the other champs from that promotion (Gaethje and Moraes not counting Ivanov because he is brand new).

    I like and I want Adesanya in the game. I'd be happy with either him or Branch given that you can make arguments for both of them.

      Very much doubt it’s 0% chance. He will be fighting Cormier within 4-6 months. He will be in at the very earliest opportunity possible, Dana will make sure of that.

        It's probably low, but it's not zero. Not anymore.

        Yep. Anything is possible now.

        Also we at least have one more patch left (maybe more but I dont know). I could see him getting added later especially if they announce the Cormier fight.

          Also, there is a ready model from UFC 1, in case making a new one is too much of a hassle.

                Why do people think there is zero chance of Lesnar? We have Cro Cop from Rizin , Rampage and Tito from Bellator and Wandy who was banned for life.

                Why wouldn’t Lesnar be in. I don’t think Lesnar cares. The WWE is done with him, why would they care. Plus clearly WWE and UFC are ok with sharing to a degree.

                I think we are a long way away from his actual fight so therefore if he goes in you want it at the last possible patch. It would help game sales and to a lesser degree PPV sales. Worth it for all parties involved.

                  I'd love an updated model but having Lesnar alone is more than enough, get him in, worry about the model later.

                    There's definitely not zero chance. In fact if things go as planned, Lesnar will soon be back to face DC.

                      I mentioned this in another thread but... this forum is mostly represented by the hardcore community. Most people who play UFC games are casual, just like UFC fans. So having beautiful KOs probably has broader appeal than you might realize.

                        I would definitely like both. But if Branch beats Jacre I think most would think it’s cuz Jacre has fallen off not that Branch has elevated. Just saying I want fighters in based on current relevance not rank or past accomplishments. Would you really care if marquardt wasn’t in the game. A big win could boost him and he was a champ in another promotion. Plus the rankings change very quickly and are sometimes are just awful imo. Relevance I think means more. Sam Alvey is ranked higher in than Shogun, but I think most if forced into a decision would rather shogun. Gina Mazany is ranked and Rhousey is understandably not ranked. I know who I would rather have in the game. Alexander Volkanovaki is ranked ahead of Zhabit. I think u see my point.

                          For sure. My comment was very much tongue in cheek. I do however doubt how ‘elite’ he will be to use in game. What do we think he would be rated like? His best attributes would be 95ish takedowns and top game. Everything else would be average with a below average chin and endurance.

                            Damn Brock is already looking deflated in that pic. Homeboy is screwed against DC. Look what happened to him when he was younger and juiced. Old and deflated is not going to go well for him and will surely be his last fight.

                            The talent gap between DC and Brock is almost the same as the gap between Gall and Punk

                              It might. The majority might love more ragdoll. They also might not think that the ragdoll KO's are "beautiful" as some of them did look a bit ridiculous.

                              Thats all besides the point though.

                              No one should ever say "Most of the people here want something" as the sole reason why something should get changed. I've been guilty of it in the past but in reality, OS is a small but passionate part of the community. There are alot of reasons to add more ragdoll but 30 people here wanting it isnt one of them.

                                He's got knockdowns, I think he's pretty alright on the feet, even if that's not his strong suit, maybe a 88-89 OVR in the standup would be alright. He's not a Maia on the feet. Maybe his body health shouldn't be high because of his issues there, maybe a lower submission defence but also a good offence... I don't think his ratings should be terrible. He also got mauled by Carwin before submitting him.
