EA Sports UFC 4 – How to Catch Kicks
The key to this technique is the footwork and movement away from your opponent’s kick. It is important to step to the side away from the power, not towards the power. A common mistake people make when catching kicks is step back or not move at all.
In order to punish your opponent’s kicks, you can attempt to catch them by using RT/R2 + LT/L2. Timing is crucial.
If you happen to catch a kick, you can simply go ahead and use all the punches and kicks you’ve learned to damage them while you have them in the lock.
If YOUR roundhouse kick is caught, you can retaliate by throwing punches, or block any takedown attempts by using RT/R2 + LT/L1.
If YOUR front kick or knee kick is caught, you can only defend yourself, and /or retreat by using the Left-Stick.
