This can aid you in managing your fighter's stamina and teach you their limits.

Enable the Fighter HUD

Go to settings on the main menu of EA Sports UFC 5. Click on the Game Style settings. Here is where you can tweak the simulation aspects down to individual sliders . You can change the Game Style to make large changes and determine how realistic the fights will be. Tweaking the settings below will change the Game Style to Custom. Finalizing your settings from the main menu will apply them to every game mode.

Scroll down to find the Fighter HUD. Set the Fighter HUD to On or Dynamic to enable visible Stamina Bars in EA Sports UFC 5.

Fighter HUD Dynamic/On Advantages

Both versions of the Fighter HUD will give you valuable information during a fight. The Dynamic option is less obtrusive. This version of the HUD always displays the Stamina Bar. Taking damage and attacking while stamina is low will drain the meter so it does not fully recover. Small symbols will appear underneath it, indicating cuts and damage. The health bars for your fighter's various body parts will only appear once they've received significant damage.

When the Fighter HUD is set to On, all of your fighter's stamina/health bars will be present on screen. It can be distracting in a fight, but very useful in practice mode. Playing certain multiplayer fight modes will still disable all Fighter HUD elements regardless of your personal settings.
