Peter Moore responds to p**sed off UFC president

Peter Moore has responded, sort-of, to Dana White's angry ramblings regarding EA's mixed martial arts game MMA and EA turning down a game based on the UFC in the past.

"I know there has been some recent discussion about EA SPORTS bringing a challenger to this sport. I love mixed martial arts, and we've been working on a game concept since I came to (sic) two years ago," he wrote on his blog. "I have great respect for the organizations and individuals that have invested in the sport's growth over the past decade – so this is one that is near and dear to me and I'm excited to see such good progress to date.

"I trace my MMA video game roots back to my support of Crave's UFC title on the Dreamcast in 2000, and have been a fan ever since. Our title will bring both innovation and further authenticity to mixed martial arts, not to mention a strong global publishing network that will help spread the sport's popularity around the world."

Nice way to put it without being a jerk about it.

Dana White stated yesterday that the UFC is now “at war” with EA’s MMA and will blacklist any fighters should they sign with EA.

This isn't the first time UFC fighters have been "threatened" with a spanking should they not do as they are told.
