8 of the best EA Sports UFC 4 fan-made covers
We are (impatiently) waiting for the release of UFC 4’s cover and in the meantime, fans have created who they’d like to see grace the front of the EA Sports game. FanSided collected some of our favorites from Twitter. At press time there was no official fighter named for the cover but it seemed the frontrunner might be BMF champion, Jorge Masvidal
8. Khabib Nurmagomedov
The currently lightweight champion is in a tough spot this year. First, refusing to fight at UFC 249 (rightly so) and now suffering from his father’s coronavirus complications. Gracing the cover of UFC 4 would be a great pick me up but pretty unlikely. But this fanmade cover is pretty slick right?

7. Amanda Nunes
The first women’s double champ and the only fighter to defend both titles is Amanda Nunes and is one of the fighters who makes the most sense to us. Ronda Rousey previously graced the cover with Conor McGregor, but perhaps Nunes could stand alone on UFC 4’s cover.

6. The bathtub edition
Dillon Danis is a jokester and this cover cracks us up. There’s always room for humor.

5. Nate Diaz
Nate Diaz has always been a fan favorite and while this cover is absolute badassery, there’s no way EA Sports will use a cover where the fighter is dripping in blood.

4. Cheaters version
We couldn’t resist including this hilarious cover set of Jon Jones being arrested and Daniel Cormier cheating on the scales.

3. Jorge Masvidal
Like we said earlier, this is the fighter who many believe will grace the cover, and we could see this cover being pretty close. We wonder if the UFC will object to their cover star currently threatening retirement. Only time will tell.

2. Grand Theft Auto version
This cover, inspired by the Grand Theft Auto game, is pretty damn rad.

1. Our personal favorite
This cover is easily the best of the fan-made covers we’ve seen. With three powerful Black fighters on the cover is kinda gives us chills. We are crossing our fingers to see Kamaru Usman, Israel Adesanya and Francis Ngannou on UFC 4.
