    All those sways...lol It's a shame that the mechanics are such that the only reliable takedowns are clinch takedowns, kinda like EA UFC 2, they really should fix that. Whittaker is no easy matchup for Yoel. Dig the pressure on your part.


    Respect though, there are levels to this game. I faced Rommel for the first time yesterday and I got completely outclassed, what's cool is he did it in a way that I could respect.

        No I know you were Yoel, I just mean it's still a tough matchup so respect.

          oh.. thanks!

          yes it was tough especially because I dont grapple lol. but his constant sways and ducks make me nervous..

          it was a fun card though and I was glad to be a part of it

            Jigsaw AWESOME fight. I remember you caught a lot of static from people when you opened up that thread to help people out. Good to see that you are who you say you are. I believe you said that you were on xbox and so am I. SO PLEASE tell me how I can join this league. I love this game and struggle to find people that are willing to slow down and that forces me to play fast pace but if I can get in a league like this I know I can get better and enjoy it more. IF not this league maybe you can recommend any other I can be apart of.
            Again great fight and I could see after that first take down and go round on the ground, you could see it was your fight.

              For being nervous you were well composed and I was surprised you held you own grappling since in all our fights your avoided the grappling completely. And Ireland is no joke,You were a step ahead the whole fight, didn't allow him to get anything real going and didn't take unnecessary risks. Well done. I don't feel bad about losing to u now lol.

              I wanna try this esfl.. How can I be down lol. I usually just stay to myself and play ranked but I'm interested in the competitive scene now that it's growing.

              The thought of pulling this win off on a live stream, man that would be pretty cool.

                they do play station and xbox.. so you are good either way!.. i would recommend searching ufc 3 clubs and submit your request to esfl. competition is a bit harder in the club though most of the top 100 is in this one.that is why it has so much potential and presentation value.

                ufc goats is also pretty good.. but none really compare to esfl, simply because of the presentation and organization.

                glad you liked the fight though. his stand up his nasty so i had to step out of my own comfort zone

                  we have played together lol? thats cool! i do tend to avoid it because its not my strength .. I'm good at defending the clinch and take down well enough that I hardly get taken down. At least I think so, I'm hoping you wont say i take you down everytime easily

                  wow good job on your win especially with a early sub like that. he is no joke , the guy has dangerous stand up. but I guess leg kicks will slow him down.

                  you should def join, the more the better. then you will see what I'm talking about, getting that first win with octagon jitters haha

                      they do have a website but its mostly just shows rankings. Some guy donated 50$ during my fight soo I'm guessing with more donations that website will get better and better.

                            I think it's cause i'm really good at killing sway spammers. I just get real close to them and wait for them to show some sways then throw a single hook or uppercut based on the sway they are favoring. When someone doesn't sway constantly it's way more difficult for me to beat them

                              yea.. we are opposites I suck at beating sway spammers. I do much better at fighters who play realistically. thats why I switched to a wrestling game plan lol.
