We at Balls.ie take pride in our pointless simulations of sporting events via the latest video games, and it seems as though the UFC are copying us as they have done their first ever simulation for an upcoming fight, and it's absolutely clear that they hope Chad Mendes doesn't win this one.
While we accurately predicted the outcome of both of McGregor's last fights against Dustin Poirier and Dennis Siver, the UFC are new to this sort of thing, and they have made it pretty much unwatchable if you're a fan of Chad Mendes...
That was less of a simulation, and more Dana White's wet dream.
Not only do they have McGregor winning by knockout (which we seriously hope happens, by the way), but they even have him facing up against Aldo in the next one? Is that not a bit harsh on Chad?
We know that Conor is the UFC's goldenchild, and we love that, but to see the UFC already looking ahead to McGregor v Aldo is a bit disrespectful to one of their top fighters.
The UFC have already taken some stick over it in the comments section and on reddit, and you would have to imagine that Chad won't be too happy. Unless he acknowledges that it's just a video game, which he almost certainly will.
