EA UFC Bio: What Is Your Style of Fighting Online?

[Pappy Knuckles]

I understand that people will fight differently depending on who they're using, but in general what do you tend to do? I know Mike Meth likes to get in and out and Big Cee will try to violently rape you, but I'm curious what the rest of you are like.

Pappy Knuckles: Pressure striking game. I want to make you as uncomfortable as possible. Unless you show me a reason to respect your stand-up, I pretty much keep going forward the whole time and try to break you down.

I'll clinch if someone keeps backing up without throwing back or if they're doing stuff I don't like. Things like throwing a bunch of spinning stuff or trying to clinch with me a lot will get me to grab you in retaliation.

When I'm hurt, I'm still looking to find openings and hit you with my shot. I'm not into retreating until I recover. If I get clipped and finished, I'm willing to go out on my shield.

If I'm on the ground it's usually because you took me there or I stuffed your shot. If you looked at my last 100 fights, I might have one or two takedowns. If I take you down, you've proven to me that you're garbage there lol.

A lot of guys who are ultra-patient try to wear me out and make me spend up my energy, but that's not happening. If you go to decision with me I'm winning most of the time.


Takedown? What's that?

Re: EA UFC Bio: What Is Your Style of Fighting Online?

Your style is exactly what I did in UFC1 and it worked very well for me. I went away from that in this game, especially when the game was first out because all of the spinny ****. I felt like i couldnt move forward at all in ranked without getting hit with spinny ****. In UFC 2 i lean very heavily on getting in and getting out. If they aren't much of a threat ill try to back them against the cage and throw bombs. I also try to use fighters that are good off their back so I can do well on the ground if it happens to go there. Submissions are huge in my game as well. If i ever catch anyone with low stamina or after a knockdown ill look to grapple and get a submission.. My most used fighter is nate diaz, and it fits my style very well haha. I currently have 507 wins and 111 losses. 41% submission wins and if it weren't for rage quits it would probably be around 50% id imagine. 30% of my losses are by decision and almost all the rest by knockout, I have only lost by sub 3 times. Oh and fun fact i have about 10 wins with cm punk against div 6 opponents lol

Awesome.

I also use ped, and I'm fairly sure every fight I've lost my opponent used cheat codes.

Re: EA UFC Bio: What Is Your Style of Fighting Online?

Such a cool, fun thread. Come on guys, lets see what everyone's like!



Hazanko: If I could describe my style in 1 word it would be Patient.
Patient Pa·tient /ˈPāSHənt/
adjective
1.able to accept or tolerate delays, problems, or suffering without becoming annoyed or anxious.


I play almost exclusively 5 round fights, and have very a paced, deliberate approach. A lot of my strategy revolves around using constant movement, feints, and counter striking, to draw out aggression from my opponent and get them to unwittingly gas themselves out.. Where I then pick up the pressure in the later rounds, and pick my opponent apart.

In the early rounds I like stay on the outside, and use a lot of counter jabs, body straights, and body kicks. I'll use my movement, get an opponent to miss, throw a sway-jab, then lunge out of the way, cut an angle out, and hang back to the outside again. I'll just keep doing small pot shots like this, sticking & moving, while my opponent, in most cases, is attempting to unload long combos, but in most cases, hitting only air.

If I get an opportunity where my opponent is back to the cage, I love to cage clinch them, and grind them with body hooks, body knees, and transitions denials, and eventually getting trip takedowns and grinding some more on the ground. Everything is done with the same end goal in mind; wear out the opponents stamina.

By round 4 I almost always have a pretty huge stamina advantage. This is generally when i'll stop "running" and start to pressure extremely hard. In a lot of my fights my opponents end up so drained they can only throw a couple shots before being totally gassed so it becomes fairly easy to really dominate them here with pinpoint, varied striking. I use a lot of lateral movement to cut the cage and get them trapped against the fence where I can unload with destructive combinations.

I do love to grapple though, and really like to mix up my striking, clinch, and grappling when fighting. I feel like mixing everything up, and using so much movement, confuses my opponents, and makes them play worse than they actually are. I often beat people in late rounds, who were obviously better strikers than me in the early rounds.

I'd like to see you and Meth fight each other. That would be an interesting one.

Re: EA UFC Bio: What Is Your Style of Fighting Online?

I'm basically a jack of all trades... I like to try and play realistically depending on my opponent.. Generally prefer stand up, using movement, side stepping/lunging and dashing in and out trying to pick my shots, usually throwing 2-3 before I back out, occasionally throwing an extra 1-2 when they get use to it to try and land a good shot. If striking is equal or theyre better, I'll mix in some clinch work and ground game and see where Im better at. I also absolutely despise parry so not often I'll finish a quick match when theyre spamming parry every second just looking to counter. Find it so unrealistic and stupid looking and isn't fun for me.

Re: EA UFC Bio: What Is Your Style of Fighting Online?

Heavy Hands and Power Takedowns make up the brunt of Boiler's offensive efforts. While he always enjoys trading blows standing; using his storied background in boxing to bob, weave, and punish both pressure fighters and runners alike; don't get it twisted ---- other than a nasty Left Hook to the temple or Liver, Boiler's preferred way to finish the fight is Ground N Pound from Mount --- nothing more dominating than enforcing your will on someone and grinding them to dust!

Though he's never been a fan of kicks (95% of his strikes = punches), Boiler has realized that the limited ability to close distance in this game (and his preference for stocky fighters) has required him to embrace the roundhouse kick to the liver in certain situations. Often it's just a distraction to get opponents to drop their hands, but if they refuse to block their guts, Boiler will tear 'em out --- suffice to say, Body Work and Stamina Management is also one of Boiler's specialties.

If he has a weakness, it's the 3-round fight against pressure fighters (who refuse to stand toe to toe --- think, leg kick spammers ). Many of his losses come from him losing the first and second round; coming on very strong in the third round after gaining a major stamina advantage, but losing a close split decision. This is particularly difficult for him at the lower weight classes, where Stopping Power is often limited.

In terms of BJJ, Boiler is a Black Belt when it comes to defending, but probably a blue belt on offense, scoring only a dozen or so submission wins in more than 400 ranked fights. But hey, who needs submissions when you can smash your opponent into oblivion

How about that haha great thread !

[HereticGabriel]

Re: EA UFC Bio: What Is Your Style of Fighting Online?

That doesnt seem too difficult, I watch his videos and his ground doesnt seem to be that great.. he's a striker more than anything lol

[SpartanZombieXD]

Re: EA UFC Bio: What Is Your Style of Fighting Online?

Oooo this seems fun

My style? Well, first things first, I would consider myself a "developing" striker. By that, I mean, I'm not very good at it really lol but alot better than I used to be. I can play the matador or the bull, however. If your running, I'm patient enough to not waste my stamina, if you're being aggressive I'm calm enough to make you miss and counter with long kicks. If I get you rocked I think I'm good at closing the show, never clinch when you're rocked, RARELY do the Vitor blitz. Good at reacting to stop the Thai clinch when in trouble

My bread and butter, however, is the ground. I run through most people quickly on the ground (I'm not calling anyone out btw, keep reading), which has lead me to more losses than I should have as I try and stand with these beasts to learn a lil bit off them, when I probably could have mullered them on the floor. I have a good memory for the transition blocks in all positions, reactions are usually spot on (when not hungover or first fight of the day), and a great understanding of the GA. If there is one thing I love, its meeting someone who challenges me on the ground. Win or lose, I like to have my brain tested that way

In a nutshell, I'm a very beatable fighter, the best of the best will have their way with me wherever the fight goes. However, you will have to watch your Ps and Qs. You could have been beating me for 4 rds, 4 mins, I am always lookin' to finish no matter how dire it looks, so watch for subs :P

Loving this thread btw guys keep it up

[Supreme_Bananas]

Re: EA UFC Bio: What Is Your Style of Fighting Online?

I would describe my style as conservative and adaptable. I never throw more than 3 hit combos and I'm very careful to not let my stamina drain too much, I'm perfectly willing to go to the judges if I'm comfortable.

If I notice that I'm getting outstruck, I try to mix in a clinch or takedown after I slip a strike, and if I can't finish them on the ground I will just try and Jon Fitch them .

If I have a weakness, it is most certainly pressure fighters, I haven't fully internalized the lunges, so I end up walking backwards without lateral movement and getting lit up for my troubles. Also I get really nervous during submission attempts causing me to mess up, usually at the last stage

Awesome bios guys! These are really fun to read.

Re: EA UFC Bio: What Is Your Style of Fighting Online?

Some bitter souls may refer to me as a Runner. I like to circle away and move in and out. Try to bait you into attacking me so I can counter. I love the wide open window after a whiffed roundhouse headkick. I usually only use 2 or 3 strike combos, set up with jabs or crosses, equal head and body. I'm a movement guy but I hardly ever lunge or sway and I never parry. I should do all of those things more.

The ground game is my favorite, but I frequently just forget to go for takedowns until I'm getting my butt kicked. Unless you do a fake glove touch or just taunt too much. Then I remember pretty quickly. I like to play wrestlers so I always have that in my back pocket. A plan B. Once on the ground, I'll deny as many transitions as I have to until you settle down or tucker yourself out. Then I move. I've recently incorporated fakes and swooping and they work well. I do submissions occasionally but only under the best circumstances. I prefer to soften you up with elbows to the body while postured up in half guard. Then I finish you from mount with Hooks Of Doom or from backside with Hammerfists From Hell.

I've felt guilty for finishing the majority of my wins with ground and pound but now I've embraced it. I am a Ground and Pounder!

My biggest weakness is the quick combo guys, usually playing Nate Diaz, who throw things like jab, cross, body roundhouse kick over and over. Their combos gas me out and they just seem to always be on top of me so I can never recover stamina. I've learned from them though and can usually capitalize when someone allows me to be near them when they have little stamina. Then I'm a pressure fighter and have gotten many beautiful knockdowns with my favorite combo: body roundhouse kick, jab, rear overhand.

PS4: Bigg-Cee (Top 100 - #33)

UFC 2 Online Ranked Championships

IM THE JAKE SHIELDS OF UFC 2. All ground and pound with Wrestling/BJJ and crappy striking. I will lay on you and bore you to sleep with my ground game and listen as the crowd starts booing my fights. Every fight I'm always guarantee to have the crowd boo me 2 death but I love it and I'm pretty damn amazing at it. lol

Yes I know its boring and ppl hate playing me, but my style is different from anyone you will ever play. Trust me on that. My only downfall is my striking and elite strikers can pick me apart if they have patience, but you will need a lot of it as I try and lay on you for 3 or 5 rounds.

Side Note: I just beat MartialMind (Game Changer.) He was playing under his other screen name and I beat him with my ELITE GROUND GAME in Online Ranked Championships in the 2nd round with ground and pound. Now I'm 2-0 against him.

What is his 2nd psn id?

You = i am asking the community not you personally)
And WHY to use 2nd, 3rf ... psn id? Who do you want to cheat guys (nothing personal)? You want to have an awesome stats while you have a bad stats (because you played for fun) on other id this is no serious.

Re: EA UFC Bio: What Is Your Style of Fighting Online?

well I know of at least a few people who use other PSNs for their 'drunk accounts' lol

Saint Clair Chapa is a well known top fighter and I came across a 90-0 profile that seemed WAY too similar to his main profile lol; I gave him his first loss; he said it was his drunk profile; maybe it was just an excuse haha

But makes sense...it can be fun to play while drinking/etc. but yea probably not a good idea for your Permanent Record I learned that the hard way in Fight Night lol

back in teh day my friend had a second PSN account that we used to all play on when we were chilling at his house, so we didn't mess up his K/D ratio lmao

gamers are nerds what can we say lol
