EA Sports UFC 4 – How to Stop a Takedown

by Falagar / Articles, Misc. Guides / 12 Jun 2020

To stop a takedown in UFC 4 you’ll need two things. First you’ll need to time the take down near perfectly. As a rule of thumb, it’s a good idea to keep your guard up in UFC 4 by holding the RT/R2 button when you’re in the stand up game. Not only will it allow you to block any punches or kicks thrown at your face by default, but you can also use this button to stop a takedown by pressing down on the right thumbstick if your opponent shoots at you for either the clinch or takedown move.

Getting the timing right can be done in a couple of ways. Visually you can look at your opponent’s character model and if you’ve got proper spacing you’ll be able to see them lunging at you. You can then press the RT/R2 and down on the right thumbstick at that time. If you are holding down the RT/R2 button you’ll see a prompt as they shoot towards to you and a flick of the thumbstick at the appropriate time will stop the takedown.
