    Tank Abbott, Don Frye, Ken Shamrock, Dan Severn Legends DLC

    If you're not an old school BlockBuster Video era UFC fan,Like myself,
    FightPass™ really helps to see in context the significance of these Legends.

    The Perks distribution in Prime Form would make them match up well in the current roster.

    Give Tank :Lvl 5 Dirty Boxing (to recreate the Steve Nelmark KO),Lvl 5 Heavy Hands etc.
    Ken Shamrock, Don Frye and Dan Severn all had great ground game to make them competitive in the game. Historic Post Fight Celebrations ( Tank Abbott mocking a convulsive John Mutua, Dan Severn screaming with both arms raised...)
    What do you guys think?

    Dan Severn's mustache alone would be worth the effort.

      Nah most of these guys honestly sucked, and just fought really bad competition, esp Tank Abbot, he is one of the most overrated fighters in UFC history.

        Severn, Frye and Shamrock didn’t suck but the comparison of now versus then is not favorable at all.

          Now stands on the shoulders of then.
          ...precision beats power and timing beats speed... and realism beats meta.

              I agree with this. With the exception of Tank. It’s like saying Bob Cousy sucks. Well, yes Steph Curry is better but it’s because sport evolves.

              I do think PRIME Shamrock would do favorably if he competed at MW

                I hate Tank Abbott and I don't want to see him in a UFC game. He's super overrated as others have said here.


                Shamrock, Severn, and Frye would actually be pretty cool though. I would expect them to be B+ fighters

                  That being said...if we really are doing icons.

                  Rich Franklin, Stephen Bonnar, Forrest Griffin, Ken Florian, Kevin Randleman and Bas Rutten make more sense.

                    Although it would even more of a stretch , I'd love to see a Prime Frank Shamrock.
                    His Light-Heavyweight Title run was only surpassed by Jon Jones.

                      Chuck Liddell > Frank but they arent too far off.

                      Couture was a much better win than anything Frank had.

                        At first I was going to lose it on you then I realized u said Frank not Ken.

                        You are 100% correct. Frank was probably the first true MIXED martial artists. It is a travesty that he is not in the HOF. Plus he did it at LHWY, meanwhile he may have been really a WW in modern MMA.

                          Frank left because there was a lack of competition. Nuff said. He spanked Tito before Randy did. Randy was a beast but he beat guys only when they had difficulty with that grinding style. Frank had more ways to beat you

                            Waste of time for EA

                            We have so many fighters in the roster now that need to be added;
                            Thiago Santos at LHW
                            Anthony Smith
                            Israel Adesanya
                            Sean O Malley
                            Alexsei Oleynik

                              How dare you sir....I would take the LEGEND, THE ICON, THE MAN FRANK SHAMROCK over any of those dudes. This was the day that MMA became a sport
