UFC 2009 Roster Wishlist: IGN

[kweiss]

While were on it, has anyone seen IGN's UFC gameplay wishlist? I agree with pretty much everything, although I would prioritize some much, much higher than others.

Grove by winning TUF has a huge fan base, has an exciting style, granted a cpl of bad losses, but he is definitely more marketable in a Game than Macdonald. Herman has no business being in the game. Werdum has terrible stand up, and he should be rated accordingly. I agree they are overrating Gonzaga only because he has the one quality win over Cro Cop. Also I know for a fact Joe Lauzon will be in the game he has been at the Development offices and images captured for the game. It owuld be a shame if they left out Pelligrino though as he is a tough guy, a colorful character, and a good fighter, even with his recent loss to Nate Diaz.

I considered all that. I'd still much rather see Quarry, Leites, MacDonald, or Kampmann over the glass jawed wonder.

I like Pellegrino too. I hope he makes it in. Clay Guida is another guy that fits that mold.

I think IGN is being awful conservative with their 45 fighter estimation estimation. I mean Matt Arroyo is gonna be in the game. They are digging pretty deep to get him so hopefully everyone that should come before him does.
