Who' Who?

[Jacko00]

In the editor you will notice pre set fight styles that are there to help up create the real world, lets try and match them up.

Ace In The Hole = Rich Franklin

Beach Boy Gone Bad = Tito Ortiz

Ice Cold Killer - Chuck Liddell

Rampaging Forward = Rampage

In The Spider Web = Anderson Silva

Cyborg = Fedor

I Faced An Axe Murderer = Wanderlei Silva

Skull Of Steel = Kazuyuki Fujita

The Heat Is On = Karo

Feet Of Fury = Cro Cop

Pain Prodigy = BJ Penn

Farmboy Ground and Pound = Matt Hughes

Rush Job = Georges St.Pierre

Terror Rising = Matt Sera

Welcome To Hollywood = Dan Henderson

Man of a thousand taps = Nog or Babalu

Big Daddy's Home = Gary Goodridge

Many more i cant think of at the moment.

[Franchise22]

feet of fury= cro cop

pain prodigy= bj penn

farmboy ground and pound= matt hughes

fireball xl= gomi

rush job= george st pierre

man of 1000 tap outs= possibly one of the gracies?

terror rising= matt serra

thats all i got :)

[Romdawg88]

Skull of Steel = Kazuyuki Fujita.

Welcome to Hollywood = Dan Henderson.

Big Daddy's Home = Gary Goodridge.

Method(ical) Man sounds like Tim Sylvia.

I think Man of a Thousand Tapouts is Big Nog but I'm not sure.

[BlizzardVeers]

Terror Rising sounds more like Nogueira, but man of 1,000 Tapouts may be any of the top ADCC competitors. :D

[D16NJD16]

wouldnt terror rising be triple h

[Tommy J.]

I'd say that "man of the 100 tap outs" could be Aoki or Shaolin, "natural all-round fighter" is Couture, "So I faced an Axe Murderer" is obviously Wanderlei but the characteristic holds true for almost all Chute Boxe fighters. "Terror rising" although the name implies Serra the no KO power part tells me it's more like Nogueira.

There appear to be two Dan Henderson templates and I'm really lost on "the beast is free" part. I thought Coleman (but he has no cardio), Randleman (but can't defend subs), Lindland or Barnett (but the "lack of mobility" is lost on me).

Anyway it's a great thing those templates are in because they provide a parallell between the real world and WMMA skill levels.

Skull of Steel = Kazuyuki Fujita.

Welcome to Hollywood = Dan Henderson.

Big Daddy's Home = Gary Goodridge.

Method(ical) Man sounds like Tim Sylvia.

the name gives tim sylvia away...his nickname is the "maine(iac) tim sylvia.

[Adam Ryland]

the name gives tim sylvia away...his nickname is the "maine(iac) tim sylvia.

It's a pun on the name Method Man.

I don't really see why people would think Method(ical) Man refers to Tim Sylvia, the description sounds nothing like him - he's wins the majority of his fights without it going to the judges, and I don't know anybody who'd describe him as being an all-rounder, he's a stand-up striker.

[Tommy J.]

Now that I think about it Method(ical) Man sounds a lot like Nick Diaz.

[Jacko00]

It's a pun on the name Method Man.

I disagree, lately he puts many fights in the judges hands, and he is not too bad on the ground.

Anyway, if thats not Sylvia's set then what is?

[Romdawg88]

The reason I thought it might be Tim is because after beating AA for the second time Timmy did switch to more of a jab jab decision style. He only has one stoppage in his last five fights. Timmy also showed good ground skills against Jeff Monson, he might be primarily a stand-up striker but he is good enough to at least survive on the ground. Of course, I wasn't 100% sure if it was him or not.

The closest I could think of for the Beast is Free is Dan Severn. He's strong, a great grappler, not to mobile and has great cardio but I don't remember him having heavy hands. That was the one I had the hardest time trying to figure out.

[Adam Ryland]

and he is not too bad on the ground.

but he is good enough to at least survive on the ground.

I didn't say he had zero ground skills, I said that I don't know many people who would describe him as an all-rounder - which is what the description in the game says. The point is that if a style specifically refers to a person being an all-rounder, I can't believe that Tim Sylvia would be the name that comes to mind.

I agree but the problem with Dan Severn would be that all the descriptions fit modern fighters (well, maybe except Goodridge). And while Severn still fights he's over 50 and really is a fighter from the old days of MMA.

[D16NJD16]

so we can pretty much create and have all the template guys right from the start here in about a minute.

[ACCBiggz]

Methodical Man - Lyoto Machida

[Romdawg88]

Man, I never even thought of Lyoto but it does seem to describe him pretty perfectly.

[Jacko00]

Man of a thousand taps i think is Babalu

Skull of steel = Big Nog

[BlizzardVeers]

Welcome To Hollywood: Dan Henderson

[jamie1989]

Skull of Steel sounds like Mark Hunt, all depends whether the stat has some good stand up skills though.

The 1000 submissions has to be Nogueira, he was reffered to in Pride as the submission magician.

[Romdawg88]

Skull of Steel is Kazuyuki Fujita. Fujita has a Greco-Roman background, good power, and is famous for having a skull thicker then the average person.

[Tag01]

Given that Severn's nickname is "The Beast," I'd imagine that is him..

[Franchise22]

"Natural" all arounder= randy couture

[y2trav]

I didn't say he had zero ground skills, I said that I don't know many people who would describe him as an all-rounder - which is what the description in the game says. The point is that if a style specifically refers to a person being an all-rounder, I can't believe that Tim Sylvia would be the name that comes to mind.

i see sylvia as a very rounded fighter(name someone out of militich that isnt) and his fights are very boring decisions, at least in the last two years.

[Tommy J.]

Drew MacFedries

[BlizzardVeers]

Drew MacFedries
Matt Hughes

[djthefunkchris]

After deciding for sure on who works for which template, someone should update the first post, or make a new seperate post, with the information on it.

It would probably help someone working on a mod, or even people that just might want to mold some fighter's after other fighter's for whatever reason, be it fictional or whatever.

[Franchise22]

Matt Hughes

matt hughes isnt in militich anymore...... just an fyi.

[Vladamire Dracos]

I'm thinking "Man of A Thousand Tap Outs" is Ken Shamrock, mostly because the name is borrowed from a wrestler and while a fighter with the template can be O.K. at standup, it's based on getting the other guy down for the submission (ankle lock).

[smurphy1014]

wouldnt terror rising be triple h

:D

And yes Hughes isn't with MFS anymore, he started his own gym in Alton, Il that he is using to train for his fight with Serra.

[BlizzardVeers]

matt hughes isnt in militich anymore...... just an fyi.

Well, I know he started his own group. But he's pretty much a product of Militech. :P

[Dustin]

I'd say that Paulo Filho could go in there as well for man of a thousand tap outs, and Methodical Man would be Ricardo Arona, other than that though you're pretty much right on the money.

[RA27]

That is what I was thinking.

[Thomnipotent]

It's a pun on the name Method Man.

And a fantastic one at that.
I was disappointed by the absence of an "Ol' Dirty Brawler."
