Um, not to step on the original point, but two knockdowns IS a 10-7 round.

Sorry typo. I meant I still only got a 10-8 round.

The fight I just had was flat out embarrassing. He was a 91 and I was an 82. He spent the whole match jabbing the body and running. Not even a hit and run style but flat running. I'd cut off the ring and when I finally got close enough to him he would throw 4 or 5 body jabs which would prevent me from throwing any punches, and then immediately go back on the run. This went on for 9 rounds until round 10 where he finally decided to trade with me at which point I ended up knocking him down but lost a wide decision.

Fighting online is pretty bad right now. i'd say 90% of my fights are against guys that are willing to go 10 rounds jabbing the body. How they deal with this will be interesting. Overall I think the best way is to leave the fighter vulnerable because his head is sticking out there to be popped, but I have a feeling they will lower the speed of the jab.

Something interesting I noticed was the tuner caused the ability to spam the jab, not the patch. I deleted my options and settings, where the tuner is saved, while PSN was down because it became corrupted. The tuner removed the PB counter AND the anaerobic stamina on the jab. Without the tuner I have no 1pko's, PB counter windows and after 4 or five jabs I love about 50% stamina remaining per punch thrown. If they would have just deleted the tuner from the system it would have fixed the issue, minus the lack of 1pko's.

Saying that, as soon as I can re-DL the tuner I will because the PB counters vs the CPU on GOAT are a mother to deal with.

This is the exact same thing I was telling a friend about online. There was a period where the patch was out but no tuner had came out yet. I believe it was less than a day. But during this period you got to play the game without the tuner but with the patch. In this period all my fights went the distance but the body spam was nowhere near as effective as it was with the tuner. You could counter a guy going to the body too much, hooks, uppercuts all got there if he kept his chin out there like they do now.

Power was considerably less than what it is now though. So you had to work to try to get that knockout. It was a hint, a glimpse of some boxing bliss.

Per EA FNC mod Indigo72, very possible tuner hits today, though not 100% certain. This is info he received from devs. If so, for you 360 guys. PS3's gonna be down a little while.

Random, I think you are right about the patch and tuner doing what we see now. I don't remember which came first, but they definitely play off each other. I would like to see the one punch ko back and of course the jab dealt with. I just hope it doesn't take too big a hit on its effectiveness.
