    Diving after knocked down opponents

    Am I missing something? I'm having trouble jumping on top of the opponent after a knockdown. Only sometimes will it allow me to jump in and start ground and pound.

    Every other time you awkwardly stand over him with options to transition into a ground position. It feels very gamey and clunky. Is there a certain button to press to move down toward the opponent?

      They removed it from the game no more finish the fight ground and pound do to political reasons,
      If you’re striking from stand up and knock your opponent down that’s basically it you just basically walk away.. you only get it from Mount side control looks clunky and fake as heck ruins the whole experience!

        What do you mean political reasons?

          In the last game Joe Rogan saw footage of the game and said they were unnecessary strikes on a TKO .. lol I guess they came off to barbaric now they’re gone!
          That would be my guess!

            You're talking about KO's. He's talking about KD's and why the guy is laying there in guard and you cant jump on him and instead hit throw punches at air.

              That's simply not true. I've had the AI dive between my legs to punch me in the face after a knockdown, or simply sit down into full mount and start pounding away.

              The issue is...how do we do it? I've occasionally gotten to drop into that knee-on-belly position to punch them out, but it seems wildly inconsistent. 9 times out 10 I wind up in feet-on-hips.

                That's exactly right. We need to be able to follow up right away. I've also noticed that if you end up standing over them during the part where you can transition to other ground posititions, you can't try to throw a few punches to try and hurt them or help you transition. Also not being able to follow up on an actual knockout is just ridiculous.

                Look I've watched mma since the pride and tank Abbott era. It has come so far with the rules. No head butts, no soccer kicks, etc. but at the end of the day it's a barbaric sport, just like boxing. If EA doesn't want us following up on knock downs or knockouts it ruins the experience. I've seen a handful of knockouts in ufc where the fighter didn't follow up because it was a no doubter (recently Emmett/ Lamas) but it is extremely rare. It looks so stupid in this game where the opponent slowly crumples to the ground (knocked out) and you're guy is standing literally right next to him doing nothing. Let us be the judge of whether or not we think it's over and there doesn't need to be any follow up punishment!

                This needs to be added in, not hitting a guy on the ground because he's in a vulnerable, defenseless position, gtfo out of here, this is fighting, you know a combat sport. So ****ing stupid and immersion breaking

                  The biggest one is when you drop them, they land on their stomach, you stand there throwing 1-2s trying to dive, they roll over onto their back, you still stand there then they stand up

                    I think it has something to do with the awful transition between striking and grappling, the same for when you try to take someone down after a combo, your fighter just stands there awkwardly for 1 sec.

                      Yeah I don't understand I always end up swinging at air or get too close and it goes to feet on hips position!! Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

                        Doesnt have to be just after a combo, drop someone and try to shoot as takedown second they stand up, usually you cant

                          You can dive between the legs after a knocked down but that’s not a finishing move you just jumping into their guard

                            FTF positions absolutely exist, there's just no consistency to what causes them or if the game will actually let you jump into the position.

                              I got the champions addition so since last week I’ve only had maybe two actual TKO’s , that’s not the case in real MMA most fights are finished this way.
