I think everyone criticising the fighters are funny. When was the last time someone asked you to sign a lifetime contract for anything? That's a big fucking deal, who knows what could happen in the future.

Doesn't really matter though does it. All the UFC haters got some fuel for their fire and nothing will sway them away from this latest travesty. Except of course for their goldfish like brains which, will see this pass in a day or two.
Man couldn't agree with you more! People freaked out to fast without hearing both sides of the story.

The only thing i don't get is why does it have to be a lifetime exclusive stipulation. What if the fighter is released by UFC after two fightss and becomes a star in another league, does that mean the other league can't use his likeness if they decide to pursue a game. UFC should at least make it non-exclusive upon the release of the guys contract.

Makes sense. What other MMA company could make a video game in the near future?

At the end of the day the UFC got everything they wanted. Regardless that this news was reversed, it' still something to remember. Whether you get up in arms about it or not is your choice, but you have to be retarded to not take something away from it.

Is Fitch going to die in the near future?
