Judging from the looks of White’s built in the video game, it appears he has over-exaggerated his physique and abilities. He clearly looks a lot more fit than he does in real life, and his character ratings are a bit inflated and questionable, as well.
White is a light heavyweight in the game and has a striking rating of 91 out of 100, a grappling rating of 86, stamina rating of 86 and health rating of 90.
We don’t know what fantasy land White is living in, but perhaps it’s just a good marketing ploy.
Dana White "fights" at 205 at UFC 3.
– DW's striking is better than Daniel Cormier's
– DW's grappling is better than Anderson Silva's
– DW's stamina is as good as Lyoto Machida's
– DW's health is better than 9 ex-champions'Brilliant move. We're all talking about the game now. https://t.co/7gsHqTikjO

White did tell GameInformer.com that the decision to put himself in the game was in response to fans’ requests.
“From what EA tells me, the fans have been asking for this for a long time,” White said. “They asked me if I would be willing to do it and I said, ‘Yes, I think it’s great.’ It’s fun. And for all the people out there that have wanted to punch me in the face over the last 20 years, this is your chance.”
