The UFC 5 roster should be filled to the brim with incredible fighters that you can enter the octagon as. We should see some new additions as well.
With additions come subtractions as some fighters might not be available when UFC 5 is officially released.
So, let's go over the UFC 5 roster and some potential additions and subtractions.
UFC 5 Roster - Fighters Revealed
Although we're still a while away from the official release date of UFC 5, we can begin to speculate who will fill the UFC 5 roster.
Plenty of fighters will be available and in UFC 4 the roster included over 50 fighters to choose from. We could see this list grow substantially larger when UFC 5 is released. This would also include legendary fighters such as Anderson Silva and Georges St-Pierre.

UFC 5 Roster Predictions
Unfortunately, the UFC 4 roster has left out a lot of players in the game even with updates that have brought more players.
This doesn't just include players in the men's division as a few women have been left out of the current roster as well. Some of these mistakes could be fixed when the UFC 5 roster comes out.
