I’ve actually played online fights and swept the floor w my opponents but couldn’t finish and when we went to a decision I won via UD. But at the post fight stats I won the takedowns the control the strikes the wobbles .
I've beaten gsp with punk in the first round but it was on hard and not legendary, it's sorta easy if you can nail front kicks when gsp goes for takedowns (front kicks will turn into knees so itll rock him at certain points and then you can nail an overhand and get the knockout)
I’m a local amateur boxer and you’re definitely right. I found a cheaper MMA gym that let me train on their heavy bags in the corner. I sparred a little with the MMA dudes there (for fun) and my boxing instincts made me eat kick after kick. Leaning; parrying, moving, shuffling, etc. like a boxer in a cage, leads to nothing but set ups for the other guy to take advantage of. I prefer boxing, it’s my love. But hats off to MMA. It’s a lot braver to step in a cage than a ring.
@@brydejintebitch2560 Ever heard of... opinion? And how they're... subjective? Boxing is tough. Duh. You need better reflexes and lungs to push through boxing. But, you only have to react to hands coming at you; faints, etc. MMA, a fucking flying knee could end your career at any point. Sure, a punch could and has done that. But it's far less likely today. In my opinion, you haven't fought in a cage or kept up to date with MMA if you truly believe what you just said.
Looking at the striking animation in no.2 now makes me realized how no.3 striking looks awkward and feels no power, and I love how the combo worked in no.2 so much more.
@@danyal6181 You're not wrong there bro. But in terms of animation, no.2 was a lot better especially the punches. And no.2 give players more creativity for stringing their own combo no.3 is so limited.
@@CookCaramier yeah the animations and graphics are definitely better. But wym stringing combos? U don't see anyone throwing 7 punches to the body then throwing a flying front kick
@@danyal6181 haha again you're right. I once fought a dumbass who threw missed capoera spinning kick 4 times in a row and got knock the fuck out cuz he gas and sent me flaming message lol goodtime. I didnt mean those dumb combo, of course get rid of that is good. I mean let players throw combo that can be string together logically at freewill not limited by the game movelist.
Realistically, Royce would’ve quickly taken down Tyson and tapped him out. But of course in boxing Royce would’ve been devoured by Tyson, as he has no punching power.
@@respha9925 even if you have a strong chin,i don't anyone can take a power punch from mike...Ofc he'll land a punch, i mean think man. A takedown requires a lot of time when compared to landing a punch
Agreed some of the punches Tyson landed in this fight dropped guys in his real life fights while he was wearing 12 oz. Boxing gloves. that were 6'5" 235 lbs. Imagine being hit with his wide open power in 4 oz UFC. gloves. The game is very unrealistic. Tyson was so strong that in a clinch he would easily manhandle Royce. Tyson shoved much larger guys around a ring in his prime.
Yo it’s always good for me to hear people recognize wrestling as an incredible base for fights/MMA! It’s something that isn’t very popular where I’m from but I’ve still always loved it!
Lol.. freaking great video my dude. My son and his brother always watch other people play video games and never understood it till I experienced a couple fights you did. Now I get it.. you gained a fan.
Great pro boxers have not transitioned well historically into MMA. Amateur boxers are a bit different. Kick boxers as well. It’s hard when boxing doesn’t prepare you for a full body attack, let alone thinking about leverages and angles involved in both grappling and ground fighting.
Dude I just found ur channel today and I gotta say your vibe is so chill and upbeat and I’m not sure if this is right but I’m Canadian and it has a Canadian feel idk why haha, anyways u got 1 more fan brotha!
The one trick to beat Mike Tyson is to let go of the left plus button after you press left or right. It makes you get back to neutral position a split second early. This is absolutely essential when Tyson's doing the knockout uppercuts in round one. You get a star every time you hit him that split second early.
Missing some intricacies of ufc 2. What do you prefer? The slips in 3 or the parries of 2? I like the hook animations of ufc 2. Similar to fight night.
While I agree there are videos in his early pro debut where he’d switch to Southpaw for a good bit of the rounds and fight comfortably so it’s not unheard of just not his default
@@reachfanatic1234 thats not what I ment. Hes a converted lefty like Delahoya. Thats why his jab and lead hook were so mean. Well....atleast untill Cus passed.
TerryBollea1 im not too much of a boxing expert and can’t comment too heavily on the mechanics behind it but I can see what you mean especially since his shift stance meant no matter where he was firing from it was going to carry all that momentum
I mean you took a known BJJ master and went toe to toe with Iron Mike Tyson, you shouldn’t be standing lol. If the game was accurate, a body shot from Tyson would’ve dropped Gracie. You should’ve took it to the ground.
I never knew there was a thing for a free video game if you beat Tyson. Everyone I knew who owned the game back then including myself got to the point beating Tyson wasn't abnormal at all.
Awesome, Ricky-man! I wonder if Royce could have really taken Mike down in real life? He would have taken it to the ground, don't you think? I sometimes think that Mike in his prime was truly unbeatable. I think only Fedor could have taken him. And maybe Semme Schilt. Too bad they're not all available here. There could be some absolutely crazy, epic fights!
I agree that wrestling can lead to the immediate success in the mma but for me it seems like amazing kick boxers with practice in Bjj or wrestling can have the best immediate success.
Oh the glory days of the NES and Nintendo power magazine. Brings other memories like game pro, mega man...so many others. Thanks for another entertaining video sir!
The fight is like a 60/40 in Royces favor. Mike has to connect within the first exchanges but he has such a good chance to do that lol. His ability to close distance and speed gives him a chance vs anyone really
Smallest possible, lowest stats, least moves (all level 1) flyweight (make him not even 125lbs) vs Tallest possible, highest stats, all level 5 moves and perks, 265 heavyweight 5 rounds legendary
Tyson was definitely in his prime at 19, his main attributes (knockout power and head movement) were based on his youthful energy, which naturally decayed with age
But leaving your prime by 23? He should have been explosive and energetic until his late 20s. It was definitely other things like losing Cus and Kevin Rooney and Tyson's personal character flaws at the time
18:06 that taunt🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. This bot reminds me of all those salty people who are about to lose.. Edit: and u won!!!.lets gooo🥊🥊🥊🥊. Keep up the good work rick
What about the "Gracie Killer" of MMA. Or Karl Gotch he beat one of the BJJ masters with a double wrist lock known today as a kimura. Hershel Walker Hof football career retired then took up MMA. Or Dave Batista as Drax custom skin lol
I dont think an MMA fighter could withstand a boxers punch power neither have the ability to dodge the punches, Theyd have to take them down and make them submit.
But I think kick boxing is the best. Good boxing can help alot. Look at masvidal vs Diaz when they where punching masvidals boxing outclasses most of his opponents
I burst into laughter every time Tyson flexed. Especially at 18:08 which led to him getting a punch in. I did not expect his strategy to pay off.
Lol
Wish the game was more accurate. A couple of those first round strikes from Tyson would have ended Royce. His power is unbelievable.
I completely agree but mind you its ufc 2 not 3. Ufc 3 was more realistic
Bruce lee stats were not accurate
@@RickyJSports UFC 2 was wayyy better
@@RickyJSports UFC 3 has shit animations for Kos thats why I only play 2
He connected a couple of left hooks that would have put royce to sleep. He used to fold people with 16 oz gloves.
LOL. If Royce took a hundred significant shots from Tyson, he'd be eating all his Acai through a feeding tube.
In real life, Royce would never trade punches with Iron Mike.
Right instant takedown because nobody traded with prime Tyson and Gracie would already know how dangerous he is
I'm happy UFC kept it real by bringing their awful judges to the game
Lol
I’ve actually played online fights and swept the floor w my opponents but couldn’t finish and when we went to a decision I won via UD. But at the post fight stats I won the takedowns the control the strikes the wobbles .
Can anyone beat Georges St Pierre Or Tyron the Chosen One On Maximum difficulty Using the CM Punk fighter?
I've beaten gsp with punk in the first round but it was on hard and not legendary, it's sorta easy if you can nail front kicks when gsp goes for takedowns (front kicks will turn into knees so itll rock him at certain points and then you can nail an overhand and get the knockout)
“the cm punk fighter” 💀
Cm punk wasn’t in ufc2
You could have asked this question in a normal way
Ethan Sheeley yeah he was
>Plays Gracie against Tyson
>Literally strikes the whole match
Right ?

No man,it'll take tyson's one punch while royce is trying to take down...at there's it, all over
It's not like Royce has a bad chin or anything, and I doubt Tyson would land it while Royce goes for a takedown.
@@respha9925 even if you have a strong chin,i don't anyone can take a power punch from mike...Ofc he'll land a punch, i mean think man. A takedown requires a lot of time when compared to landing a punch
Tyson was insanely strong, I don't think Hoyce could take him down even with perfect technique
@@arjunharidas416 Takedowns are 2 fast. you cant punch someone and protect yourself from falling at the same times.
I miss the GnP you can do in EA UFC 2 when you're about to finish someone, looks more realistic and less "robotic" to me. Good video Ricky

that was a knockout lol game hax 19:44 you got lucky with that one lol
Ricky "I'd like my head to heal up"
Think a lot of Tyson's opponents mirrored those same words
no one on earth could take that many head punches from mike in his prime survive no joke royce would be dead
I completely agree lol
Yo it’s always good for me to hear people recognize wrestling as an incredible base for fights/MMA! It’s something that isn’t very popular where I’m from but I’ve still always loved it!

Wow thx poppa. Means a lot coming from u man
19:46 either you cheated, or he punched you so hard it broke Physics lol 😂
Ruisu-214 Sir Isaac Newton wants to know your location
Takes Royce Gracie
*doesn't grapple*
I was waiting until he would take him down, am actually disappointed (╯︵╰,)
I think that’s just for the videos makes it more interesting, Royce isn’t a striker so he just wants to strike with him for the video
@@kidsmooth5403 i know but why royce who has no striking 😂
He probably not good at those grappling mini games
19:43 that was a KO straight up idk how you broke physics 19:46 but that’s what saved you somehow.
I love your voice in your intro, it really gets me in the mood for the vid :-)
Hi Ricky i know this is older but good content fighting Mike Tyson is never easy! I love the one fight win or lose! Super Cool 😎

Tyson is naturally a lefty, but why is he fighting southpaw??? He fought Orthodox.

the game has him has orthodox naturally, the ai always changes stances mid fight to ensure they can always keep their block up.
I mean you took a known BJJ master and went toe to toe with Iron Mike Tyson, you shouldn’t be standing lol. If the game was accurate, a body shot from Tyson would’ve dropped Gracie. You should’ve took it to the ground.
No sir. Boxing is definitely not the worst. I would say one of those "no touch" larper martial arts is definitely worst.
He shouldn't have won Tyson should've won Tyson got knockdowns he didn't calling bullshit
We all know how awful the UFC judging has been lately. Blame it on that
Tysons power on full display at 19:46 lmao

I want to download UFC2 from ea pass just to use Tyson. Sux hes not in UFC3
Ufc 3 turned into button mashing. Gotta push 3 buttons just to throw a hook to the body
Ikr wtf kinda shit is that? You've gotta play for like a month just to get the controls down.

What up? Ricky J & happy new year to you. I have a question for you: Which ufc game you like more 2 or 3? I just hate the movement for 3 so much...
If that fight lasted ten more secs it would have been over 21:27
Great videos Ricky! Really enjoy your commentary. One question-why is Tyson fighting southpaw?
You made it in the end, but playing with Royce and not trying at least one time to take it to the ground is kinda funny.
Boxing is a good background I’d say, the conditioning is through the roof, good striking. Pretty solid base I think
Next video: the worst charakter vs luke rockhold or chris weidman
Great video man loved it!
how did you develop your emotional poise. i get anxious just watching. great match!

You made it to the last round with Tyson on punch out. I think the furthest I got was 10.seconds into the second round.
