Top 10 Strikers:

CcaZQkdW8AAZGj6.jpg:large


So far I've just checked out Strawweight, and the top 4 are decent:

Joanna Jedrzejczyk: 98
Valarie Letourneau: 93
Rose Namajunas: 93
Michelle Waterson: 91

Then it starts getting a little odd, in my humble opinion.

Paige VanZant: 90
Tecia Torres: 90
Joanne Calderwood: 90
Jessica Penne: 89
Bec Rawlings: 89
Claudia Gadelha: 88
Felice Herrig: 88
Alex Chambers: 88
Carla Esparza: 87
Heather Jo Clark: 87
Aisling Daly: 87
Kailin Curran: 87
Maryna Moroz: 87
Juliana Lima: 86
Alexandra Albu: 86
Seo Hee Ham: 86
Randa Markos: 85

PVZ is kinda high up there.
Didn't Heather Clark outstrike Rawlings?
Jessica Penne has a lot of great qualities. Striking is not one of them.

Where should Gadelha be?

Anyway, if anyone wants to write up any other divisions, I'll update the OP.

Top 10 strikers in EA UFC 2 (not including imaginary pseudo philosophy spouting actors who'd get their butts whooped by just about anyone top 10 UFC guy in a real fight)

Holly Holm: 97
Jessica Andrade: 93
Cat Zingano: 93
Amanda Nunes: 91
Ashlee Evans Smith:89
Miesha Tate: 89
Raquel Pennington:89
Juliana Pena: 88

Honestly, All women fighters skills should be ranked between 50-75 maybe with the exception of Holly Holm, but compared to each other;

Too low: Davis, Reneau, Rousey, Eye, de Randamie

Too high: Andrade,Evans Smith, Tate, Correia

Correia,Evans Smith,Andrade ranks are so bad that its not even funny.

What makes NBA 2K so great is that players are ranked from 60 overall up to 99, an can have certain attributes as low as 25/30. All players in EA UFC 2 are ranked 82 and higher and their stats are way too high.
If I had to rank Carla Esparza's striking between 1 and 10, it would not be an 87 (with all due respect), Her overall stats would still be solid as she has a good wrestling game.
 
I have no problem with the stats except for the WMMA Divisions.
It's not that bad though so far it looks good.
 
In all fairness, that doesn't really look like Mcgregor in that screen shot, I'm really hoping this game doesn't suck balls.
 
So Conor McGregor has 99 striking and Bruce Lee has 97? gtfo here with that shit. Not buying this shit game
 
Luke Rockhold has the same striking as Bruce Lee? Fuck outta here EA.
 
I'm worried this game is going to disappoint. The first one wasn't too bad once they had put all the updates in but I can't see them improving much on it, my faith in EA has diminished over the years.
 
Shesh. I guess it wouldn't be fair to the game as far as balancing goes to give the good strikers the upper 90s and have Paige etc at like 60.

the mens BW look better for example other than Assuncao being so low which is completely fucking stupid. Dude outstruck TJ Dillashaw pretty clearly for the first two rounds of their fight and the third round was a pick em.

Moroz and especially de Randamie are criminally underrated relative to their divisions.
