I don't think blocking should be the strongest defensive tactic in the game because it's not the strongest in real life MMA. You can't just turtle up in MMA and block strikes because of how small the gloves are. You take a lot of damage still.

I think the block is good where it's at because it forces players to use other defensive tools such as head movement, footwork etc. Don't forget, you can block and move your head at the same time this year as well. Slipping and making people whiff is actually so rewarding in this game, that i can't even see a case for wanting block to be stronger.
