Alex Pereira and Max Holloway have been selected for the cover of UFC 6, the upcoming video game. Pereira will appear on the base version of the game, while Holloway will be featured on the deluxe edition. This represents a significant honor for both fighters, recognizing their star power and recent performances in the UFC.
Alex Pereira and Max Holloway have been chosen as the cover athletes for UFC 6, the next installment in the long-running video game franchise, with each fighter representing a different edition of the title.
Pereira, known as "Poatan," will front the standard version of the game. The 38-year-old Brazilian is the reigning UFC Light Heavyweight Champion, carrying a professional record of 13-4-0. Standing six-foot-four with a 79-inch reach, he brings an imposing physical presence that translates naturally to cover-athlete status. His striking accuracy of 62 percent ranks among the most efficient in the sport, and he lands 5.16 significant strikes per minute inside the octagon.
Holloway, nicknamed "Blessed," earns the deluxe edition cover. The 34-year-old American from Hawaii competes at Lightweight, where he is currently ranked fourth in the division and ninth in the pound-for-pound standings. His record stands at 27-9-0, and he is one of the highest-volume strikers in UFC history, averaging 7.2 significant strikes landed per minute at 48 percent accuracy. Standing five-foot-eleven with a 69-inch reach, Holloway has built his reputation on relentless offensive output over years at the elite level.
Why it matters
- Pereira's placement on the base edition reflects his status as a reigning champion and one of the promotion's biggest current stars
- Holloway's selection for the deluxe cover highlights his sustained popularity and pound-for-pound recognition despite competing in a stacked lightweight division
- The pairing of a champion and a top-ranked contender signals the UFC's intent to market the game around fighters with broad cross-divisional appeal
