Draft a fighter. Simulate a 25-fight career.

25-0 is a free MMA draft game built on ratings for real UFC fighters. You spin a year and a weight class, see five fighters from that era, and take one attribute from one of them. After eight picks you have a composite fighter, say one fighter's boxing, another's wrestling and a third's chin. Then you simulate a 25-fight career and see whether your build can retire undefeated. There is no sign-up, and nothing is saved on a server.

How a run works

Every fighter is scored on eight attributes: Boxing, Kickboxing, Wrestling, BJJ, Strength, Durability, Cardio and Fight IQ. Each round you spin, choose a fighter from the five on the wheel, and assign one of their attributes to an open slot. A fighter can only be used once per run. You can also choose Attribute First, where you pick the slot before the spin and must fill it from whoever appears, and Year or Prime mode, which decides whether fighters are rated for the year you rolled or at their career best.

Three difficulty modes

• Amateur: ratings visible and three rerolls to escape a bad spin. The best mode for learning the pool.
• Contender: ratings visible, but only one reroll for the whole run, so slot order starts to matter.
• Champion: ratings hidden and no rerolls. You draft on what you know about the fighter and the era.

How the career simulation works

Your eight picks are combined into offense, defense, cardio and fight IQ scores, with grappling, striking and durability weighted by attribute. Opponents come from real fighters in your chosen division. Early fights are against weaker opponents, and the target rating climbs over the career. Win streaks make the next opponents tougher, while a run of losses eases the schedule. Title fights, rivals who return for rematches, and random events such as injuries or weight-cut trouble add variance. Ratings are my own estimates, made with AI assistance. They are opinion, unofficial, and not a measure of anyone's real-world ability.
