Thanks but I dont want to be MMA manager or anything like Dana White, and I dont like all the fake name of the fighters and old graphics.

This might be the best available option, and I think I was using this ps2 simulator before for testing some games.
I tried playing mobile UFC game and it is not bad but screen size is a deal breaker for me.
No problem for controllers, I have few of them for PC that looks very similar like for play station.

You can use https://pcsx2.net/ ps2 emulator. According to compatibility, it runs UFC game for ps2 well. I have beaten Final Fantasy 9 using this emulator long time ago and had no issues. Since then pc hardware became more powerful and would run any ps2 game without any lag, bug or issue.

You know, it depends on how much you want to spend on playing UFC game without buying a console You still need a controller, as playing on a keyboard isnt convenient. I can suggest to search on aliexpress for something like ps2/ps1 emulator HDMI stick (but it still will require a usb port on tv, laptop or pc for power). It will cost around 30-50 bucks and will come with a controller or two (but cheap quality).

However, if you really want to try UFC game, I would suggest buying preowned ps4. This will cheapest option for best experience. Old ps2 UFC games are primitive. High, low punch or kick, few combos or and sort of a hit 1 button to perform submission. It will be still more fighting of Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat level. PS4 level game has gone much further. More buttons, more combinations, submission  and etc. It will be more than smash 1 button to win game.

I don't think there are any MMA games that are ported to PC, yet at least that is what I know,

But there is 1 if you know World of MMA 5 there are 5 updates now and it is an MMA simulation game where you will be like Dana White and you are the one who will be making the fight card just like what Dana White is doing, but I still haven't played the game yet, but you can download the demo now in this website https://greydogsoftware.com/our-games/ or you can surely buy the full game if you want,


I think this is on February 10 and it is a long wait from here on, but I think you have jumped an event because we are still having Oktagon 52 which will be on January 27, but that will be in Newcastle, England, and for sure you are from Germany that is why you have only watch live the Oktagon 53, so good luck about that,

But we are having so many MMA events now, and OKTAGON MMA is just popping out of nowhere but for sure it is better to have an event than to have no event at all, and right now many fighting organizations are taking a long break right now UFC included so for me will be taking what ever event we have,

Oh! sorry wrong look at Fight Night Champion it is really a boxing game, well there is not much for the PC game, sorry for saying plenty of MMA games for sure it would be plenty if you install an emulator on your PC, most PlayStation emulators has some UFC games and many surely wants to port the UFC games to PC because of the enhanced graphics PC could offer, then with just playing with it in the Emulator so I can not blame them well it is up to you if you're going with the emulator or wait for a game to be available at PC because I don't have any console at my disposal and I haven't played any of that game before but maybe will be waiting to have a true MMA game in PC,

Plenty of MMA games? I dont think so.
I was asking for MMA games, and it is easy to see that Fight Night Champion is a Boxing game, there is a big difference compared to MMA.
I found that people are asking UFC to port their games to PC for years but they always refuse to do it  
Using PC emulators games have bugs or they are very old versions.

the first ksw (#90) event of this year starts in the polish capital warsaw on january 20th.
there will again be 9 cage fights with fighters from 9 nations. you can see who will fight who in the cage in the graphic below

It was a true double celebration for Kyoji Horiguchi a total win for him against Makoto Shinryu and his proposal to her soon-to-be-to-be wife took place at the same time for sure there was no amount of gladness on that 1 occasion Kyoji Horiguchi the upper hand when it comes on the feet and for sure Shinryu was pressure and got a difficult time figuring his opening and his defense would be, while he was looking for a submission attempt Kyoji Horiguchi escaped and then led him to take Shinryu's back on the 2nd round that led into a Rare naked choke, it was a stunning performance for Kyoji Horiguchi,

Actually, I was shocked by the performance of Kyoji Horiguchi and from that eye poke it led me to believing that he can truly win this back then,


I think there are plenty of games that are MMA-based but I haven't seen any games available for PC, but searching Google I came across a ton of games for the PC, Fight Night Champion, is one MMA Simulator, and MMA Arena but if you want to play the other UFC base games you will need to use an emulator to play those games and emulators that can play Playstation 2, PlayStation 3, XBOX, Nintendo Wii, there are bunch of emulators to choose from that let's you play MMA base games,

You have several options.

1) Install playstation 1 or 2 emulator, get a usb controller and play Ultimate Fighting Championship (video game) or UFC: Throwdown, or UFC: Sudden Impact. <- cheapest scenario
2) buy Ultimate MMA game and still buy a controller.
3) there is game streaming services (https://www.pcmag.com/picks/the-best-game-streaming-services). You buy subscription and connect to high-end spec pc or console. (sorry, I have zero experience in that, cant help much. only heard for such option)
4) if there is possibility, buy used ps4 (they are starting from 150EUR at my place), used games for 10-15 EUR and get best experience.

I be watching Oktagon 53 in Germany. The fights are not all fixed yet, but you can already see a few here: https://oktagonmma.com/de/events/oktagon-53/
There will be 13,000 fans in the hall, a little less than the last event in Germany, but okay. I think JUNGWIRTH will fight, he injured his arm in his last fight. In Octagon 49 he was allowed to enter and informed the fans that he will fight again in February. At the latest at Octagon 55 he will be in the ring in Stuttgart, thats already written here: https://oktagonmma.com/de/events/oktagon-55/

Guys can you tell me does anyone know any good PC game with MMA sports?
I could only found some UFC games for Xbox, PlayStations and for mobile devices, but there is nothing for PC.
It doesnt have to be new game, old MMA style games are accepted.

You are right this kid Johan Ghazali has a future in the muay Thai for sure, and ONE Championship is giving him a break, he is just 16 years old, and he is fighting like this, you can clearly see the range and depth of this kid for sure he will do great in every Fighting Organization he landed on, he can also get into MMA a little training with wrestling and he is good to go, but maybe he is just staying into Muay Thai,

---

Speaking of ONE Championship we are having an event next week for sure I am really excited about an MMA event this week but all of the MMA event was this coming week, January 13, I think I will update this post if the event changes but for me the Main Event is a solid fight for sure here is the event and it is against Superlek Kiatmoo9 and Elias Mahmoudi for a kickboxing match,

ONE Fight Night 18: Superlek vs. Mahmoudi

Friday 01.12.2024 at 08:00 PM ET
Promotion: ONE Championship
Venue: Lumpinee Boxing Stadium
Location: Bangkok, Thailand



MAIN EVENT
Superlek Kiatmoo9 VS Elias Mahmoudi

MAIN CARD
Won Il Kwon VS Shinechagtga Zoltsetseg
Shamil Gasanov VS Ho Taek Oh
Artem Belakh VS Enkh-Orgil Baatarkhuu

CANCELLED CARD
John Lineker VS Liam Harrison

All information was from TAPOLOGY: https://www.tapology.com/fightcenter/events/107590-one-fight-night-18-superlek-vs-mahmoudi

Interesting news comes from ONE Championship which named Johan Ghazali as the best newcomer of 2023, he is young fighter who can be said to be still teenager because he is only 16 years old.
But even though he is very young and it is challenge to be able to take part in every fight held by ONE Championship, Johan Ghazali has proven everything with the several fights he has had.
This young fighter with the martial art of Muay Thai has really received lot of praise and discussion because of the 5 wins he got, 4 of which were knockouts.
But the most surprising fight was when he managed to beat Padetsuk Fairtex by knockout in just 16 seconds.
I sure this young man from Malaysia will be able to have very brilliant career and he will have big enough potential to be able to join martial arts promotion company UFC biggest mix.

I totally missed The Day Of Reckoning event but watching the replays of the fights I was amazed at Dmitry Bivol with his speed and agility to get into his opponent you can say that his output and technicality did improve but I really wish he could have his real fight against Artur Beterbiev before Beterbiev retire because Beterbiev is not at 38 years old, maybe 2 years and he will be retiring, Shocking Co-Main Event because Joseph Parker defeated Deontay Wilder in their fight I don't really know what happens to Wilder but he is just waiting there and not punching much, while the Main Event we could clearly see that Anthony Joshua has proven himself on this fight that he had improved and defeating Otto Wallin,


It was a double celebration for Kyoji Horiguchi because after defeating Makoto Shinryu he proposed to his girlfriend inside the ring, and for sure they got married, Kyoji Horiguchi was really something in that fight it was a quicker strike for Kyoji Horiguchi while Shinryu was not letting him his way but still Kyoji Horiguchi was faster on the feet for sure he was on a advantage because of his great striking while Kyoji Horiguchi secure in taking the back of Shinryu it was a rear naked choke that Makoto Shinryu tap while Kyoji Horiguchi got the victory of both Bellator and Rizin, as champion,

Sad to say Deontay Wilder was defeated by Joseph Parker it just that he wasn't able to figure out in time what Parker was doing and that Joseph Parker knew what he was doing all along, it was a sad truth for Deontay Wilder He lost this fight so he will not get the Anthony Joshua fight,

And for the boxing matches that we have Naoya Inoue defeated Marlon Tapales, while we are getting an Artur Beterbiev VS Callum Smith on January 13, next year then a Tyson Fury VS Oleksandr Usyk on Febuary 17, it will be great fights for the next year and I think I am excited about it,

---

Back into MMA Rizin 45 is starting now, and I think the fight against the heavyweight Tsuyoshi Sudario VS Mikio Ueda is underway and is next now

Juan Archuleta VS Kai Asakura - The Co-main Event is interesting aswell Juan Archuleta VS Kai Asakura a striker VS striker fight will be a banger to behold but Kai Asakura has decent grappling that Juan Archuleta needs to look for but for sure he has great takedown defense that Kai Asakura needs to get ready and take note on,

Kyoji Horiguchi VS Makoto Shinryu - While the main event Kyoji Horiguchi VS Makoto Shinryu will be a great wrestling fight for sure event though Horiguchi is great at striking and has power in his punches that poke was really unintentional on their 1st fight but the unique thing about Makoto Shinryu he can finish the fight in any grappling position he can think of even in the standing position,

I think it was not that big of an event was Rizin 45 and we will be having it now, at the end of the year, but for sure many really aren't really that eyeing the event on Rizin even myself but because we don't have any MMA event in the UFC and on other fight organization I think this is good enough, for us than not having an event at all,

While the Day Of Reckoning boxing event was a banger Sadly Deontay Wilder lost to Joseph Parker, Wilder surely has strong punching power but his hesitation was evident in the fight he didn't want to engage so much, and that led Joseph Parker to an opening and for sure he is the only favorite that have lost that night, while both Dmitry Bivol and Anthony Joshua won their fights so we will never see a Anthony Joshua VS Deontay Wilder in the future, because of what happen,

RIZIN 45

Kyoji Horiguchi VS Makoto Shinryu - Actually this is the 1st time I have seen these two fight I don't really watch Rizin and I don't have any experience with some of Rizin's fighters and even Bellator but right now doing my initial research just for the Main event well these two have already faced each other inside the ring and it is in the Bellator MMA vs. RIZIN 2, and it was ruled as No Contest because Kyoji Horiguchi poke Makoto Shinryu's eye, for this fight, Kyoji Horiguchi is a decent striker for sure he will get his opponent with punches and kicks and he will surely land the heavy blow, he also got decent wrestling so he is very well-rounded, while Makoto Shinryu is very deep with wrestling and for sure a monster in grappling because he will hold you in every position his opponent is in and on the feet he will rain down a barrage of kicks and knee, this is indeed an interesting fight but I guess I will go with the well rounded one so I think Kyoji Horiguchi if he can strike Shinryu without an eye poke he could win this,

It's big holiday break and there are no big MMA events this week but is anyone watching boxing event Day of Reckoning?
Deontay Wilder vs Joseph Parker is starting soon and after that Anthony Joshua vs Otto Wallin, there was already four or five KO wins on that card!
See you all in 2024 with new MMA events

We will be having an event this end of the year and that is on December 31, 2023, and this event will be in Saitama Japan,

Now that the PFL Europe 4 is all settled it was really a crazy fight with many TKO, and submissions, for sure great finishes, for this event, it was really entertaining to watch but I haven't made my bet on these because I am not so sure if the fight will be in favor with me or if I am any knowledge at all,
