Wondering Why Clay Guida Isn't in 'UFC Undisputed'?

Geico_medium

Fightlinker has your answer:

For those of you still basking in the release of the UFC’s first video game in years, we came across some interesting news that originated from the May issue of Fight! Magazine. Popular lightweight fighter Clay Guida was originally slated to be on the video game’s roster, but had to be removed because of his hair.

According to the report, Guida’s hair was causing “clipping” issues within the game and made his character nearly unplayable because of collision detection issues.

THQ had reportedly offered Guida money to cut his hair so that they could keep him in the game but Guida apparently turned down the offer.


 

While their reasoning makes sense to me it seems kind of silly. Maybe they could have just asked him to start putting it in cornrows for his fights like Urijah Faber used to. I would assume that this is something that they would be able to implement in next year's version of the game (along with left-handed fighters) with another year to work on it. Let's keep our fingers crossed.

Without the hair, Clay Guida is just a less capable Gray Maynard

Keep firing Assholes!

This is a dream competition for me. I drink as much coffee as I want, and eventually I hallucinate.

He did beat Nate Diaz

where Maynard didn’t. Though I agree he’s less capable… his hair gave him the advantage!
