I was surprised about Bonnar but I think Nate will be in as a WW cos he only just went back to 155. He'll probably be playable at both weights but 170 will be his main class. Ken Flo and Tyson Griffin will probably be revealed when the featherweights are shown and have a (also fights at lightweight) next to their name.

 

Guys like Wanderlei werent listed for 205 cos they must have him at 185 but theres pics of him fighting LHWs aswell so i wouldnt worry about Florian, Nate etc.

 

That's a good point, completely forgot about Griffin and Florian at featherweight and Nate being at WW. To take out Lauzon and add someone like Diabate is stupid IMO. Lauzon is a huge game fan too, so to leave him out seems cruel :)

 

Yeah Diabate should have been replaced with Gustafsson or Bonnar imo.

 

Bit disappointed in the FW roster aswell. No Korean Zombie, Tyson Griffin, Nam Phan or Dustin Poirier but at least we get to play with Fredson Paixao :/

 

I really think they're saving some fighters back so they can cash in with DLC later. There's surprising omissions at every weight so far and it only makes sense if they are gonna have them as DLC.

 

I reckon we might get a DLC pack that looks something like this

 

HW - Meathead and maybe Overeem

LHW - Gustafsson and Bonnar

LW - Lauzon and Stephens or Barboza

FW - Korean Zombie and Griffin or Phan

 

along with whoever they leave off MW, WW and BW. Money grabbing wankers.

That's the most complete division yet. Only notables they missed really were Dan Miller or maybe Tom Lawlor, Aaron Simpson. But they haven't really missed out anyone that had to be in I don't think.

 

Fucking Palhares is in aswell :thumbsup: They're revealing the 135ers tomorrow

I wish more stores would stock official UFC merchandise.I'd like to see the goods in person than from a website.

 

I should note my Sister's never had a problem buying me official UFC merchandise from the UFC website before.

Undisputed 3 Bantamweights

 

Antonio Banuelos

Brad Pickett

Brian Bowles

Charlie Valencia

Chris Cariaso

Damacio Page

Demetrious Johnson

Dominick Cruz

Eddie Wineland

Joseph Benavidez

Miguel Torres

Norifumi 'KID' Yamamoto

Renan Barao

Scott Jorgensen

Takeya Mizugaki

Urijah Faber

 

Fucking love the Bantamweights. Don't think they really missed anyone important. Can't post links at the minute but there's pics online and everyone looks spot on. They even got Jorgensen's skin condition in, and Damacio's body ink looks perfect.

 

Aside from some disappointing omissions in the earlier reveals, they've got 185 and 135 pretty much dead on for me.

For me the casual fan just doesn't want to watch yet another rematch now matter how good the previous fights were. Also, Sonnen is as much as of a switch off with his arrogant ways as he is adored by others. I shudder to think what UFC 138 PPV buys will be like. Hopefully thye don't blame it on the UK fans and never come back. (Although thinking about it, it's free to air in the US? Which will put even more emphasis on the numbers)
