Ultimate Fighting Championship: A New World
Benton's work on his UFC franchise inspired me to do much the same thing. I think things could get very enjoyable with a second franchise to compare his progress with, and see how the UFC world might differ and might be the same!
I'll get this up and running over the next day or so, and will certainly be looking for ways to make the story more interesting. I've already run one event, and so I'll post a brief overview of that, the rankings, etc., and then get rolling with events and commentary. ----- Event Schedule *Note: Dates are not expected to line up with real-life calendar UFC Fight Night 2: 03 March 2012 UFC Fight Night 3: 17 March 2012 UFC 1: Silva v.
