UFC 244's GTA-style Promo

I know this isn't a video game, but it's video game releated! The promo is SO GTA, and SO video gamey--I had to share!

Miami vs Stockton. Masvidal vs Diaz. Basically, 2 GTA villains going at it. This isn't a cross promotion, this is the UFC lifting the GTA Aesthetic and applying it to their marketing. To me, it totally works. I think the question is: How do you feel about this? When you see a different industry lift (inspired?) by something that's so popular and prominent from our hobby, do you love it or roll your eyes?

Personally I think it's great!

That's a pretty cool trailer and I love how they are advertising this. I am also really excited for this fight as I like both fighters. I'm still not sure who I think is going to win.
