#2. Marlon 'Chito' Vera - UFC bantamweight

Marlon 'Chito' Vera has steadily risen the UFC's bantamweight division with impressive victories over high-level opposition. Following the recent rankings update in the aftermath of UFC 268, Vera now sits 12th in the 135lb division.

Having previously stilled the Sean O'Malley hype training by TKO'ing the prospect in one round, Vera has also picked up impressive victories over Davey Grant and Andre Ewell.

However, at UFC 268, 'Chito' picked up his biggest win yet. He took on former lightweight champion Frankie Edgar in a main card bout. Despite falling behind in the first round, Vera quickly adapted to Edgar's veteran guile, before picking up an exquisite highlight-reel front kick KO.

Vera now has legitimate hype behind him and could well begin a run at the bantamweight title. He is an iconic fighter who has been with the promotion since 2014, and surely deserves to be in EA Sports UFC 4.


#1. Paddy 'The Baddy' Pimblett - UFC lightweight

The UFC's latest breakout superstar, Paddy 'The Baddy' Pimblett, would undoubtedly be the perfect new addition to UFC 4. The Scouser is already a huge fan favorite despite only being one fight into his UFC career.

Pimblett is known for having an incredibly exciting style, both evident from his days at Cage Warriors as well as his recent UFC debut. His iconic blonde mop of hair would also provide a welcome change from the relatively generic look much of UFC 4's current roster has.

It is hard to tell how far Pimblett will rise within the UFC's lightweight division, but considering the huge international following he has amassed off the back of just one fight, the UFC would do well to capitalize on 'The Baddy's' popularity as soon as possible.
