EA Sports UFC 6 Heavyweight Tier List

Heavyweight in EA Sports UFC 6 is the division where one mistake ends the fight, and Tom Aspinall is built to force that mistake first. The division's highest-rated fighter (94.0 stat average) has 98 Punch Speed on a heavyweight frame — hands that move like a middleweight's with one-shot power behind them — plus a far more complete ground game than most big men, and Bonesaw and Reaper perks that add elbows, knees and kicks to the blender. The community's other elite pick is Jon Jones, widely called the ranked-safe heavyweight: grappling, reach, clinch tools and elite control that let him win every fight the opponent's knockout power doesn't decide in the first exchange.

The A-tier splits by identity. Ciryl Gane is the movement outlier — an evasive, technical kickboxer in a division of plodders, brutal for opponents who only know how to march forward. Waldo Cortes Acosta brings pure boxing hands and durability, and Jailton Almeida is the takedown-and-control snowball pick in a division where almost nobody can wrestle back to their feet. Below them, Stipe Miocic and Alexander Volkov offer well-rounded striking, Curtis Blaydes owns the double-leg, Derrick Lewis is a one-punch lottery ticket, and Shamil Gaziev pressures with size and submissions.

Official fighter ratings mislead most at heavyweight: everyone hits hard, so speed, reach and defensive identity decide fights far more than overall numbers — which is why the fast, mobile heavyweights sit above sluggers with similar ratings. Community consensus is still young in this division, so placements below the standouts lean on EA's official ratings order until the votes say otherwise.

That's your cue — if you've been folding Aspinall players with Derrick Lewis all week, vote him up and prove the meta wrong.
