Check Out The Latest News And Updates For UFC 5, As Real As It Gets
The newest content update for UFC 5 features the addition of six new UFC Hall of Fame Alter egos to celebrate their history inside the Octagon. The Hall of Fame series starts at UFC 113, Machida vs Shogun 2, in a rematch for the UFC light heavyweight championship. Rua wasted no time in the rematch, finding the finish in round 1 via TKO to secure UFC gold and write his name in the history books. Next, at UFC 117, Anderson Silva vs Chael Sonnen faced off for one of the most memorable championship bouts in UFC history. Sonnen was near flawless through four and a half rounds, almost pulling off one of the biggest upsets of all time before Silva forced the tap via triangle armbar.
At UFC 136, the UFC lightweight championship was on the line in a highly anticipated trilogy between Frankie Edgar and Gary Maynard. Edgar would retain his championship by handing Maynard his first professional loss inside the Octagon via KO in the 4th round. At UFC 139 in the co-main event of the evening, Wanderlei Silva took on Cung Le in a middleweight bout that saw Silva secure a TKO victory late in round two. At UFC 211, the co-main event of the evening had UFC strawweight gold on the line, as champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk was set to defend her gold against Jessica “Bate Estaca” Andrade. Over the course of five rounds, Jedrzejczyk dominated the fight, successfully retaining her title and cementing herself as one of the legends of the sport.
Not only will the legacy of these fighters live forever inside the UFC Hall of Fame, but they are also playable in EA Sports UFC 5 as part of the Hall of Fame Alter Ego collection!
