The stakes at UFC 194 just got a little bit higher.

Aside from the world featherweight championship on the line, the winner of the Jose Aldo-Conor McGregor fight also will grace the cover of “UFC 2” with Ronda Rousey, the company’s newest video game.

“The main event at UFC 194 between Jose Aldo and Conor McGregor is without a doubt one of the most anticipated events in UFC history,” UFC president Dana White said. “Aldo and McGregor are two of the biggest stars in the world and it’s fitting that next Saturday night the winner not only becomes the undisputed UFC featherweight champion, but also the second global cover athlete of ‘EA SPORTS UFC 2.'”
