I'm beating this guy badly and have significant stamina advantage.
Timestamp 10: He transitions to over/under. I pre-input break, my gauge never even begins to fill, and he instantly hip tosses me.
Timestamp 1:10: He transitions to over/under. This time I pre-input single-leg TD. Again, my gauge never begins to fill and he instantly tosses me with HALF my stamina.
WTF! How does this logic work??
Oh, and Jigsaw, happy to fight you if you think I'm trash. PS4: ptangs

His success gives him priority and he is using moves that don't allow exchanges. It's a bit weird, but that's the intended design. Not everything can exchange with everything. In these cases, you gotta realize you're not racing and try to deny him (which you can).
One instance of this on the ground is when the opponent is on bottom, transitions from mount to HG, then goes for the sweep. When he starts the arm drag before you try to mount, he has control of your arm and you cannot use that arm for the leg press to achieve mount. This case was very specifically designed as such. And learning how to deal with it is relatively easy, because the sweep is slow. I remember how this felt so powerful very very early in UFC 2, but we could get used to denying the sweep in these instances, with just a bit of practice.
Once you get used to the easier cases, you'll get better at the harder cases, that involve less familiar moves and shorter denial windows. I myself mess it up in the cage clinch all the time. But this is definitely something that can be learned.
Were you in Side Control? Crucifix? Full Guard Postured?
