It worked pretty much the exact same way. If your enemies could surround you (Which they weren't too good at, sadly), very, very heavy pain was heading your way. The kind of pain that spells 'no chance.'

Instead, they more or less tried to find a way around, until they got within striking range to you, and then did their best to turn you into a Very Dead Thief ™.

It worked fairly well, too. Blocking several attackers was far more difficult - about the best thing you could do, was isolate them in a doorway - they'd push through, and make room for their pals behind them, but before that happened, you could exchange a few blows. Alternatively, you could try to keep one guy between you and the other, and go full-out on him, using dodging more then blocking. Of course, his pal would try to circle around -really- fast, so some sort of pain would probably come your way.

That's where the AI could very well had been improved. Realistically, the one between the two of you should have stepped left, the other one should have stepped forward and right. It wasn't perfect, by a long shot.
