Lyoto Machida, Randy Couture, Fedor Emelianenko All Possible for EA Sports MMA Video

[2mcgrath]

"We are looking obviously at every fighter that we can, that we feel is applicable from a quality level and then analyzing their image rights, and if they're available and we want them -- then we'll get them. If they're not then we'll move on to the next fighter."

When asked about fighters such as UFC star Lyoto Machida, Moore added: "Machida? A great fighter. There's plenty of great fighters that have their image rights, and we'll start announcing fighters pretty soon."

A tour schedule around E3 indicated that notable Russian fighter Fedor Emelianenko was taking place in a photoshoot for the EA title, alongside colleague Gegard Mousasi.

In addition, famous ex-UFC heavyweight champion Tim Sylvia recently said in a radio interview that both he and notable former UFC star Randy Couture have signed up for the Electronic Arts game. None of these signings have yet been confirmed by Electronic Arts.

Sweet. Fedor in a video game. So the man may finally lose a fight. Or will they put some sort of cookie in so that he never loses... Hmmm...

In related news: Dana White shat a brick, called the UFC lawyers, and had Couture's and Machida's career assassinated.

Sweet! Competition is always great. This will force "UFC Undisputed" to stay on top of their a-game for next year. The more mma video games, the better!

The Couture thing makes sense, because he is signed with EA for some other game. I don't remember the name of it, but I'm sure 2mcgrath knows.
