Perma/regenerating stamina is a very delicate balance that the devs of Fight Night could never get just right. It was always one extreme to the other and they would neglect to adjust the A.I. behaviors as well.

Fly in with your own attack then start with a methodical jab, straight, then hook to the body to keep their hands up and dropping their stmaina. At this point they will be reeling with back towards cage, cut the ring off, and continue to unload. If you happen to have a guy good on the ground or submissions then shoot for the take down and continue the assault. The biggest mistake people try and do is brawl with these guys. Cover up, strong block the body shots, attempt the parries, and let them throw until their temp stamina is empty. Now unleash hell on them

strong block is r2 plus holding x or o? Parry is timing it with a button push? Im terrible at parrying

I'm really enjoying the game now I've taken it online. I still think the ground game needs to be tweaked so you can't just stand straight up from full mount but apart from that it's a lot better than I initially thought.

I got caught by a body shot spammer once but since then I've been on the lookout for them and have by in large been successful.

Submissions are tough to escape against a human opponent but they should be.

On the subject of permanent stamina Matt. I think a stuffed takedown should chip away at acguys long term stamina. I stuff 40 takedowns and theres no penalty to him? Cant sprawl. No intercept knee. Takedowns should have a risk to them and certainly shouldn't be able to attempt 40 and up in a fight. Guy would be exhausted.

On PS4

R2 + Triangle or Square for high strong block
R2 + Circle or X for low strong block

Then R2 + same buttons above timed as the strike lands = parry.

lol. This would explain why spammers sometimes rock me. Ive just been blocking with r2. If you hold your strong block for a while does it deplete your stamina quickly?

Your stamina doesn't go up

I wasn't aware of this strong block either. A lot of guys lately have been body spamming and the regular blocking doesn't seem that effective when they're consistent about it.
