Will we see an upset or two at the top of Saturday’s UFC 175 card? EA Sports’ new UFC game doesn’t seem to think so.
In a preview video for the game, which released this past month, champions Chris Weidman and Ronda Rousey both came out victorious – and both thanks to their strong suits.
Weidman (11-0 MMA, 7-0 UFC) defends his middleweight title against former light heavyweight champion Lyoto Machida (21-4 MMA, 13-4 UFC) in the main event. If EA Sports UFC is an accurate predictor, we’ll see Weidman win thanks to his ground-and-pound after taking Machida to the canvas.
UFC women’s bantamweight champ Rousey (9-0 MMA, 3-0 UFC) puts her belt on the line against Alexis Davis (16-5 MMA, 3-0 UFC), and is a massive favorite once again. EA Sports UFC’s preview video shows Rousey getting back to her armbar-winning ways after a TKO win in February.
Check out the video preview for EA Sports UFC above, and don’t miss Saturday’s UFC 175 pay-per-view, which takes place at Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas.
And remember – it’s just a game. Or is it?
