UFC 2009 Undisputed Wins Big at E3
It’s been a long time coming for a new UFC video game, but by the looks of things, next year’s UFC 2009 Undisputed will definitely be worth the wait, as the highly regarded video game news site IGN voted it ‘Best Sports Game’ at the annual industry trade show, E3. UFC 2009 Undisputed - which beat out entries from Sony, EA Sports, and Ubisoft for this year’s award – is published by THQ and developed by Yuke’s Media Creations.

Stephan Bonnar To Miss UFC 90 in Chicago
“My first reaction was pretty much that I couldn’t believe that the UFC was finally coming to my hometown. Right after that I said to myself, ‘God damn why can’t I be ready to fight?’
I recently started to get real aggressive with the rehab and my doctor wasn’t very happy about it. I was told to back off a little bit.”
UFC light heavyweight Stephan Bonnar provides an update to MMADHOUSE on his recovery from a serious knee injury, his hopes to return to the octagon before the end of 2008, and his disappointment at being unable to fight at UFC 90 on October 25th in his hometown of Chicago, Illinois.
