Before jumping into a fight, take time to go through the automated guide in the game's Tutorial mode. It can be a bit

daunting at first, but give it a thorough run through. Play the game some and then go back to the automated guide.

A second run through the guide after you've put in some time in the octagon will clear up a lot of things for you.

The most obvious aspect of combat in the UFC is striking. "Striking" refers to punches and kicks, and for the purposes of

this guide "striking" specifically refers to punches and kicks thrown while at least one fighter is standing.

In UFC 2009 Undisputed, there are three possible striking styles: Boxing, Kickboxing and Muay Thai. Each fighter in the

game is associated with one of these three styles (in real life, not every fighter can be so easily categorized) which

determines his striking options. Naturally, a Boxing practitioner puts emphasis on his punches, while a kickboxer is

strong in both punches and kicks. A Muay Thai fighter has strong kicks and an emphasis on eight-pointed striking, which

means he uses a lot of elbows and knees in addition to fists and feet.

Striking Overview

No matter which striking style you choose, you always have access to these basics. Everyone has four main attacksÏ

left punch, right punch, left kick, right kickÏwhich, assuming you're playing on a typical control pad, are executed with

the four face buttons. Simply tapping the face buttons will give you weak versions of the four attacks.

Every striking style can modify the strength of these four strikes by holding the left analog stick toward the opponent

while pressing the attack button. If you tap the right punch button while pressing the left stick toward the opponent, you

get a heavy version of the right punch which does more damage but typically is slower to execute and harder to combo.

You can also modify each of the four main strikes by holding the LT (360) or L2 (PS3) to attack low. A low punch will hit

to the opponent's body, while a low kick will go after the opponent's legs. When you throw combinations, constantly mix

up your high and low strikes to make your combinations difficult to block. Blocking in Undisputed is pretty toughÏalmost

impossibleÏif the fighter on offense is good about mixing up strikes.

In addition to the possible strikes listed above,

practitioners of Boxing can further modify their

punches by holding LT (360) or L1 (PS3). These

modified punches deal very serious damage and

usually involve some head movement which makes

the boxer more difficult to counter.

From outside range, these modified punches typically

result in big, looping hooks. While in close, these

punches become uppercuts. Boxers can also modify

their punches in the clinch with the same button to

work a powerful uppercut. As a boxer, be sure to use

these benefits to your advantage. Mix these modified

punches into your combos to gain a technical advantage in inside, close exchanges.

K i c k b o x i n g

Similar to boxers, kickboxers can modify their outside

punches with the LT (360) or L1 (PS3) button. But

with the Kickboxing style, this modified punch results

in a superman punch which has outstanding range

and solid power. From way outside range, this same

combination will give you a rangy spinning back fist.

Superman punches are very fast for outside attacks,

but they're not real useful in close or in combos. And

as such, you'll find that if you try to modify a punch

with the same modifier while in clinch range, your

fighter will simply execute a normal punch instead of

a boxer's uppercut. Though a kickboxer can, like a

boxer, execute an uppercut in the clinch.

So while kickboxers don't get the same close-range punching advantages of boxers, they do get some sweet kicking

skill. Modify a kick with the LT (360) or L1 (PS3) button to execute a high kick which attacks the opponent's head. Head

kicks are very powerful and can earn you knockouts from outside, adding to the kickboxer's general strength as an

outside striker.

If Boxing gives a technical advantage in close striking

and Kickboxing gives an advantage in outside

striking, Muay Thai is at an advantage in clinch

striking. To enjoy the real benefits of Muay Thai,

clinch with the opponent using both hands to assume

the Muay Thai clinch. From this clinch, you can

"sway" the opponent in any direction (using the right

analog stick) and line up a wicked knee strike to

coincide with the sway. Normally in a clinch, the

opponent can retaliate with his own strikes, but during

a sway the Muay Thai fighter has the exclusive on

strikes.

But Muay Thai fighters have strengths outside the clinch. Like Kickboxing, Muay Thai gives you access to modified kicks

by holding LT (360) or L1 (PS3) while hitting a kick button to execute a high head kick. Head kicks are very powerful and

have outstanding range. Furthermore, Muay Thai fighters have access to a flying knee attack which you can perform by

holding the kick button modifier and kicking from way outside range.

Grappling is what separates Mixed Martial Arts from other combat sports such as Boxing and Kickboxing. Grappling

comprises everything from the standing clinch to the intricacies of the ground game and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. It is a very

complicated and nuanced art, so don't expect learning grappling in Undisputed to be easy.

¨ 2009 IGN Entertainment, Inc.

There are three core styles on which every fighter's grappling is based (at least in the game): Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ),

Wrestling and Judo. While the general basics of each style are the same, there are nuances and benefits for each style

that you should know and exploit. BJJ fighters have strong submissions and excellent ground transitions. Wrestlers are

generally more powerful, with strong takedowns and ground-and-pound skills. Judokas are somewhere in between, with

slick throws while standing that operate as effective takedowns, plus better-than-average ground transition skills.

Grappling Overview

There are essentially two different stages of grappling in Undisputed, and the gameplay mechanics for each stage are

different. While standing, you can initiate a clinch with the opponent by flicking the right analog stick toward the

opponent. During a typical, double-underhook clinch, you can deliver very weak attacks or, more importantly, setup a

takedown attempt.

The three different grappling styles have different options for takedowns, but generally all takedown attempts are best

when you've got double underhooksÏwhich means that both of your arms are under the armpits of the opponent in the

clinch. In the standing clinch, fighters will shift their arms around to try and establish double underhooks (by tapping

forward on the right analog stick) on the other fighter since it's the more advantageous position (versus the relatively

weak overhooks, which is having your arms over the top of the opponent's arms in the clinch).

After the transitional stage of the takedown attempt, assuming the takedown is successful, you're left in the ground stage

of grappling. Ground grappling is more complicated than the clinch, but it's also easier to see who has the advantage.

Generally, the fighter on top has the strategical advantage in ground grappling, though there are multiple possible

ground positions, each with varying degrees of advantage to the top fighter.

While on the ground, you can perform transitions with inputs on the right analog stick. Quarter-circle inputs result in

minor transitions that will improve your position quickly, easily, but are easily blockedÏminor transitions are good for

fighters with weak grappling skills. Fighters with strong grappling skills can use major transitionsÏwhich require a bit

more than a quarter-circle, but a bit less than a half-circle inputÏwhich result in an even bigger improvement in position.

It's important to note that while transitioning you cannot throw ground strikes or attempt submissions. Conversely, if

you're busy throwing strikes you won't be able to improve your ground position. So if you've in a disadvantaged position

(like on the bottom), don't waste time throwing punches. Try to transition to a better position. We've got a Ground

Positions & Transitioning tutorial that goes into more detail and which we suggest giving a good once (maybe twice

and thrice) over.

B r a z i l i a n J i u J i t s u ( B J J )

As mentioned earlier, BJJ fighters have excellent

submission skills and extended ground transition

abilities. A good BJJ fighter can easily assume a

disadvantaged ground position and turn it into an

advantaged position with the proper techniques.

Which is good, because Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

practitioners typically do not have strong takedowns.

While in a standing clinch, BJJ fighters can attempt a

takedown but it's not strong. You've got a much better

chance of pulling guardÏdone by holding LB (360) or

L1 (PS3) and flicking the right analog stick in any

directionÏto take the fight to the ground, though

doing so leaves you on the bottom in the ground
