If he can cut it to 135, you could drop him in the BW division if he beat already everybody at FW. The LW is too packed to bring him up at 155 (from a realistic POV) but very interesting situation for you !</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Move Aldo up to LW for a McGregor rematch. He's going up to chase the guy who took his title, a fight that he immediately wanted to rematch anyway and never got the chance. Aldo wins, you now have an immediate LW contender. Aldo loses, then he's not in a position to fight for the title at FW for a bit. Aldo - at least in real life - is waaaaaay too big for 135 at this point in his career. He looks like death cutting to FW as it is.</p>

Just bought the game during the 12 days of Christmas sale. Got into my first game with SIGMA (always been a SIGMA fan, don't know why). After having all but one of my champions poached by ALPHA-1, I was working on building all my divisions back up. nearly a year in, I had finally gotten to the point where things were rolling smoothly again. I had one last belt to award and had a big match set up between Evgeni Medtner and Alberto Basora for the belt. Awesome match, Medtner KO's Basora in the first round. Most successful show yet.

 

Post show breakdown: I have somehow lost over $1 million. Turns out I had somehow given Medtner a $480,000 per fight contract. With bonuses he mad over $1.2 million. My only guess as to what happened is that I was trying to keep ALPHA from poaching him as well, and went to enter $4800 for the salary. I must have tried to enter "4800.00", and the game ignored the decimal in that box.

 

Well, time to start a new game....

Preparing for my first show as Bellator. I signed free agents Punk, Rousey and Lesnar, but due to UFC also bidding for them, their prices increased substantially, so I'm looking to do some cash in my first show, that will be Bellator 214: Mir vs. Silva for the vacant heavyweight title. Actual contenders probably won't be happy, but it is what it is. <img alt=":D" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

I'm about 9 years into my UFC game. Conor McGregor has the most career earnings with over 100 million and is the first MMA fighter to win titles in three different weight divisions Featherweight, Lightweight, and Welterweight. I have over 300 fighters under contract with about 170 million in the bank.

even further into my game, im about to hold "The ultimate ultimate" where 2 of the tournament winners (after even more tournaments to determine the finalists) will compete. plus a second international show. Downside here is that all this booking and play was done weeks ago before i wrote into my dynasty and before i knew exactly how to play. in comes a take over, my company is about to be purchased (all in my mind of course) which will allow me to transition into a new format and layout for my dynasty. champions. divisions. drug testing. tv shows etc etc. All for the sake of imagination of course. 3 events left and im ready to go with my brand new rosters. Some great talent from around the world.

<p>I have just implemented my take over. PPV and TV from here on out. Adding a lot of fighters to the roster and have allowed local events from now on.</p><p>

First 3 events (2 main events each show for a semi final bout in 3 divisions) and it is looking as expected. I love this game</p>

<p>Is Toshiaki Ukiyo an absolute monster in anyone else's game? He's easily the GOAT in mine.</p><p> </p><p>

36-2 (29-2 ALPHA-1)</p><p> </p><p>

#1 or #2 P4P for the last half decade.</p><p> </p><p>

Current ALPHA-1 Middleweight champion (Jul 2012 - present, Jan 2018, 11 defenses)</p><p> </p><p>

Former ALPHA-1 Middelweight champion (Defeated da Silva Ramos to unify with interim title, Jul 2010 - Jul 2011)</p><p> </p><p>

Former ALPHA-1 Middleweight interim champion (Aug 2009 - Jul 2010, 2 defenses)</p><p> </p><p>

Fighter of the Year 2015</p><p> </p><p>

Fight of the Year 2008 (vs. da Silva Ramos)</p><p> </p><p>

Most consecutive title defenses (11)</p><p> </p><p>

4th most title defenses in total (12, only current champion near the top of the list)</p><p> </p><p>

5th all time career earnings ($15.904.926) - he's 35 and everyone above him in the list is retired.</p><p> </p><p>

7x Knock Out of the Night</p><p> </p><p>

2x Submission of the Night</p><p> </p><p>

14x Fight of the Night</p><p> </p><p>

His only two losses are to da Silva Ramos.</p><p> </p><p>

Lost via headkick TKO in his first title shot in 2009.</p><p> </p><p>

da Silva Ramos went on hiatus so Ukiyo took the interim belt and beat da Silva Ramos by unanimous decision when he came back from hiatus in 2010.</p><p> </p><p>

Then da Silva Ramos beat him by leg kick TKO (!) to win back the belt in 2011.</p><p> </p><p>

Ukiyo hasn't lost since, he won back the belt with another unanimous decision in 2012.</p><p> </p><p>

da Silva Ramos tried one last time in 2015 to win the belt, but Ukiyo demolished him in 35 seconds with a headkick - the same strike da Silva Ramos beat him with in their first fight.</p><p> </p><p>

So he's 3-2 in probably the greatest rivalry of all time in my game.</p><p> </p><p>

I have to say, this game is a masterpiece in emergent narratives. I haven't played for about six months and just loaded my save back up and I remember everything.</p>

And if you don't it's easy to get back into it due to the information being easily accessible. I love games like that, quite like Crusader Kings II, for instance. It also has organic narratives like TEW/WMMA.

 

The problem with TEW is that the notepad is limited and a convenient direct export to excel would make a huge difference. If not, one can stop playing for months and completely lose track. There are those who like to save info using notepad or other stuff, but to me it is a deal breaker. A game should provide all the tools I need to store what I need and even export it if needed.

 

In TEW there is much more ever evolving information to remember, so if not properly recorded, one can easily not manage to pick up the pace on an old save.

I have never seen Philip Ziskie do as poorly as he's done in my latest XCC game. In hindsight maybe I should have gave him a few more easier guys before putting him up against Banner again, but still.

 

I had no choice but to cut him after he got knocked out by every top contender, and then he somehow managed to tap out to Clint Royle of all people.

That's what I was talking about in the Globalverse thread - it's not that the new fighters are that good. It's that this game is unpredictable and tried and tested superstars can sometimes fail miserably. I had Terron Cabal going on a 8-0 streak in one game and barely managing to keep up with 2-2 in another one.

i haven't updated the dynasty itself yet, but i just crowned a new champion. found 2 new contenders for my next champions (when crowned) and had a harsh realization that my booking plan works great for me, yet the game dosent like it due to me not using popular fighters. ha you got to earn your stripes here son!

Sean Morrison just became my first champion beating Jim carpenter for the Lower Middleweight championship. He is undefeated in 10 (1 was due to foster forfeiting due to injury). He was the first ever ultimate fighter. First and only ultimate ultimate and winner of the lower middleweight grand prix (where he became champ). Teo more title fights to follow and I'm loving it.

Sean Morrison wound up with a career record of 8-9. Lol</p>
