Try R2 + flick your right stick while your opponent throws a strike. You must time it well but works fine for me

Was just up against a Adesanya doing nothing but holding block. Getting in my face, and spamming spinning backfist. He was destroying me with that nonsense. Felt super cheap and hard to beat. In striking anyway. Didn’t want to take him down.

I faced one of these jabronis yesterday. Its kinda ridiculous how well that actually works vs a high level realistic player.

Anyways, I ended up getting a dub after immediately going to the body. Any time they just start holding block and swaying just land to the body over and over and they'll be forced to switch it up, then punish them from there.

lmao guys like that don't deserve a good fight. I would've take him down and submit in 1 round but i don't have the game and with the cheesefest still going on I'm happy I didn't bought it.

Spend 2 rounds trying to survive, then submitted him. Worst part is that my striking is great, I've been picking random fighters and I have outstruck each of my opponents so far. I'm in division 12 now. But my grappling is so bad. For example if I am put in a crucifix, how do I get out here? It's such a predictable deny for my opponents apparently.

Transition fakes?

Glad I'm not the only one that ran into this. Yeah I was trying to go to the body, he started mixing in the spinning back kick afterwards. An even more deadly combination. I did not want to risk ducking into one of those.

Anyway it was a very efficient way of playing sadly a bit too rewarding for how cheese it was.



I actually hope I encounter it again because I definitely need more practice against nonsense like that.

I have never been too good at grappling in the series so I've never used those. I'd say I get too anxious on getting back on my feet that I am probably making it too easy for my opponent to read me. I'll read up on these.
