I agree it happened to me too and it should never happen from that position

Plenty fighters have been stood up from full guard

So take the mount or try choke, because in back sitting you cant do any serious damage, its pretty much same like laying in full guard top position.so do something.

It’s actually nothing like that . U have someone’s back lol it’s a dangerous position and should never be stood up .

I hate MMA stand ups in general, both in real life and the videogame. Like why is it OK to just make fighters stand up and start striking? Imagine if a fighter was being real elusive and boring on the feet, and the ref just made the fighters go to the ground. That would be crazy, you can't just move them to the ground. It's the same with stand ups to me. You can't just move them back to striking.

Way I see it, if one of the fighters doesn't like the position they're fighting from, they can change it themselves. If they're incapable of doing so, then they don't deserve to win.

Same with the "fans". If they don't like the position the fighters are fighting from, they can go watch another sport.

It's like if Mayweather was being real defensive in boxing, and the ref made him back up to the ropes so his opponent can wail on him. You can't just artificially adjust a fight as punishment for "inactivity".

If you can compete against a professionally trained fighter, and win while being "inactive", then perhaps your opponent deserves to lose. It's like on the videogame, I get a message "you got no standup, you literally didn't do anything the whole fight". I just respond "so you lost to a guy with no stand up, who didn't do anything the whole fight?"

But on topic, stand ups are inherently flawed on this game from sprawl position. If you end up in top sprawl position, you get a brief window to safely transition. After that window passes, the bottom guy gets full GA without doing anything, so the top guy can't do anything but punch. So all the bottom guy has to do is just sit there and wait for a standup and the guy on top can't do anything about it.

Stand ups are harsh in general now (stand ups from back control? Wtf?), but sprawl is the worst because you actually CAN'T be active from there.

I agree this new standup thing in the game is against against grapplers . Ppl just sit in sprawl waiting to easily block a transition to backside or till the ref stands it up now . It takes so much away from the ground game . Now u don’t even have to try and get out of a position by transitioning . All u have to do is sit hold block and wait for the ref to stand it up like this isn’t ok. There should be no stand ups in this game at all

I caught a body kick and took the guy down and we were literally stood up in about 5 seconds. Is this a glitch or something?
