After watching Jon Jones utilize his reach on Saturday night against Glover Teixeira, I started to wonder how viable that fight strategy will be in the upcoming EA Sports UFC. Questionable eye pokes and extended fingers notwithstanding, Jones once again used his insane reach to simply keep Teixeira at bay, sometimes resorting to completely palming his head in his hand, much like something you'd see in grade four (the class bully holding back a smaller kid). Teixeira certainly came to bang, and he tried his best to get inside, but Jones deployed that impressive reach and some even more impressive elbows (once he'd comfortably gotten inside) to do heinous damage.

There was in fight night. I want to say there was in EA MMA too.

So true. They really need to do something about that.

They are showing the full game this monday in Germany. If they allow the press to record what they see we will FINALLY see gameplay. If not. Have to wait even longer to see.

Do you think that worked from the start? With FNC I felt reach worked well when the opponent was fatigued. That is somewhat realistic, but the jab in fight night was often countered too easily, making a guy with long arms inferior to a smaller guy that wanted to pound.
