A fun arcade-style boxing game that casual gamers will find entertaining for awhile.
-

-

-
A fun party game that casual gamers and first-time players will enjoy. Simulation and diehard boxing fans? Well, this game is not for you. No, not at all.
-
There simply isn’t lots to do once all the fighters have been unlocked and the stories for each virtual fighter have been experienced.
-
While the game does have a solid number of modes, the gameplay seems to be too repetitive and lacks strategy that other games have.
