The round's aren't done in "real time", never have been in any of the 2 previous Undisputed games. EA Sports MMA had real time rounds but not Undisputed.

Been looking forward to finding out more on the career mode, the terrible stat decay feature ruined Undisputed 2010 career mode imo. I would've liked to have seen them put in the WEC instead of the WFA though.

Sonnen vs. Bisping The question i would have is just how much has Bisping worked on his takedown defense during his training camp for Maia, because i reckon not a great deal. Certainly not to the level that he would if he knew he was fighting Sonnen 10 weeks ago. The majority of Bisping's defensive work, i would imagine would've been from the clinch where Maia is excellent at getting takedowns.. I don't think Bisping would've been to worried about Maia shooting from distance like Sonnen will look to do. Ideally, i don't think this is a fight that Bisping would welcome at such short notice tbh, but i guess you can't pass this sort of an opportunity up.

Thats hardly an excuse. EA Sports MMA is also a game & the striking is far better on that.

I will be getting it for sure, but the striking still looks very robotic.

From John Morgan's Twitter:

I wonder if this fight would even be allowed to go ahead if there was an official commission regulating MMA in Brazil.

Yeah i think thats the way it's going to go this time, Roland Delorme (who was eliminated by Dillashaw in the first round) was on Mauro Ranallo's podcast earlier this week & he pretty much confirmed that he would be fighting at the finale.

It's pretty obvious that the UFC are trying to manufacture a title shot for him & whilst i wouldn't be against him fighting for the title, i'd like to see him actually beat someone inside the top 5/8 before he gets his title shot. Wouldn't be surprised if he got that rematch with Wanderlei next though</p>

He sat in Dana's office and told him he would "play the game" and do all the media stuff then backtracked & no-showed not one but two press conferences! Diaz is a great fighter and it would be a shame if his UFC/Zuffa career ended because of this, but he has nobody to blame but himself.

Nick Diaz Needs some adjustments in my opinion. Ran a few fights using the quick fight feature & it always seem's like Diaz starts to get tired midway through the 2nd round, so i checked his stats out & surprisingly his conditioning is only at 72, which, in normal circumstances is a decent number but Diaz's conditioning should be one of the best, if not thee best in the game). Also his stun recovery (64), Heart (77) & in particullar his chin strength (74) need to be increased because Diaz can take some heavy shots.

As sad as it is to admit, i'm afraid Wanderlei's chin needs a significant downgrade (if it hasn't been done already). Currently it is at 98% & unfortunately that's no longer the case.

Thiago Silva/Brandon Vera fight needs to be changed to a no contest (as well as there records amended). Chad Mendes needs to be ranked alot higher, as does Mighty Mouse. Also hopefully you'll look at Dominick Cruz (if you haven't already). Not to say his stats are bad, because there not, but still imo he should be a little bit better in certain areas, ie. footwork/feints/speed.

I'm not sure if this is related to the stats or whether it's just how the particullar fights went, but i did (Anderson) Silva vs. Sonnen a few times in the quick match feature & for some reason everytime Sonnen took him down, he would immediately stand back up.. At one point even giving up side control!

The Shamrock / Diaz card was the first event in Strikeforce's 3 year deal with Showtime & that was in April 2009 so i reckon there deal has little over a year left.

Why would Diaz ask for a release when he just signed a new contract with Strikeforce? He could've left to go to the UFC then but he chose not too. Josh Gross has said that the promotions will stay seperate only because Strikeforce still have a contract with Showtime. Once it's up, they will prob merge.

Chael Sonnen Not sure if this has been discussed on here but the California State Athletic Commission have revealed that Chael Sonnen tested positive for Performance Enhancing Drugs during post-fight screening at UFC 117. Considering the amount of talking he did & has done since this seems almost impossible to be true but hell he's in big trouble, looking at a 1 year suspension.

When did i say Anderson Silva wouldn't be able to knock Chael Sonnen out? Chael cannot stand with Anderson nor give him distance to work with, the key to this fight for him is to constantly pressure Silva BUT the point i was making is that Chael Sonnen is a legit opponent for anyone & going 35 fights & never been knocked out is very relevant when you consider that 80% of the time he prob has a disadvantage on the feet in his fights, Does that mean Anderson or anyone else won't be able to be the first? Of course not but it's still a very legit fact in an anything-can-happen sport.

Sonnen is very strong where Silva is weakest & Sonnen has never been knocked out in 35 professional fights so yeah i'd say he is a very real threat to Anderson Silva.
