Anyone think the other mystery fighter could be Cyborg? Looking forward to this game

Unless they're using a genetic outline (which they haven't in the past) it's a male fighter.

I remember when I started to watch MMA and all I heard was Bas Rutten this and Bas Rutten that will a sprinkling of Shamrock and a whole lotta Gracie.

Also, my guess for the mystery fighter will be Ray Sefo... Would love to recreate the brutal Hunt/Sefo matchup.

Business-wise I think their best option is Mike Tyson as the mystery fighter. He's a big fan of MMA and has that crossover appeal that game developers like to get for their games. EA already has a history of using his image for the FN series so there is a business relationship already in place.

As popular as Bas and Sakuraba are to MMA fans, I think the main draw that EA will feature in their commercials is going to be a Mike Tyson preorder bonus.

A dark horse is Arnold but WWE 2k already went there.

If its Mike I am pretty much using him and going straight to KO mode for a fight night fix. Honestly though Fight Night's stand up was so much better then UFC. I didn't understand why they didn't use more of that series gameplay especially with the upperbody movement by holding LT/L2. The sway was ripped from THQ's UFC and was not nearly as well done as it is very unresponsive and delayed. There are so many other flaws with the stand up in that game I am just hoping for a big improvement.
