Frankie Edgar vs Ben Henderson UFC 144 fight video simulation
Want to know who wins the UFC 144 main event between Frankie Edgar vs. Ben Henderson, which is scheduled to take place at the Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan, on Feb. 25, 2012?
Look no further than the UFC Undisputed 3 video game.
The boys over at THQ put together this video simulation to promote the upcoming lightweight championship fight that will determine the top dog in the 155-pound division ... until the next challenger comes along.
And if life imitates art, come Sunday morning we'll have a new lightweight champion.
That's because Henderson -- a talented Brazilian jiu-jitsu guard player with a killer guillotine -- will get taken down in the fourth round, get caught up against the fence and ultimately latch onto Edgar's neck and not let go until "The Answer" taps his title away.
Here are a handful of notable stats from the simulation, which is the culmination of 25 matches:
Edgar landed more overall strikes in 60-percent of their matches
Henderson attempted 60 submissions in 25 matches
Edgar won by TKO six times in 25 matches
Edgar and Henderson rocked each other an equal amount of times in 25 matches
Henderson won by head kick KO once in 25 matches
Henderson won by submission seven times in 25 matches
Anyone think these stats will come close to the real thing in "The Land of the Rising Sun" this weekend? For more on the "Edgar vs. Henderson" match up click here. Check out the video after the jump.

Rogan says “Bendo is fatigued”… right away tells me there’s flaws in the THQ simulation
"Did you know that if you mix equal parts
of gasoline and equal parts frozen orange juice
concentrate, you can make napalm?"
THQ might have thought that Bendo and Hendo were the same person
You know, he fatigued after the 3rd round against Shogun

Frankie outlands and out strikes bendo 100% of time .
This fight becomes a toss up if bendo can some how get a hold of Frankie and take him down .

Has this simulation picked the winner everytime?
Because if it has im clearing out my accounts and heading over to bovada.com. On a wholly unrelated note, i think im failing my logic course.
the THQ simulations
Have picked the favorite every single time. So they don’t exactly go out on a limb usually. Didn’t watch this one, just assumed they went with Edgar.

Thanks
A bit late, luckily if Bendo loses im only down 2k though.
that's cause they were both underdogs
THQ wouldn’t risk taking a dog.

I will be astonished if Edgar
becomes the first person to TKO Bendo. Methinks THQ is droppin some dookie in their drawers on this one.

And a Computer is Never Wrong!
Bendo is gonna win Saturday. I can feel it. Then after Pettis beats Lauzon, they’ll set up that rematch which Bendo will take much more easily.

then BJ PENN RETURNS to fight for the LW title
And the natural LW order is restored as the PRODIGY leaves with the belt again!!!!!!!
you should totally twitter that on your facebook
It would be typical for them to give him an insta shot
But that is fucking gay.
Fighters fight. Snitches Snitch.
