So why in the hell does this dude have anything left on his haymakers in the last round? I almost got dropped trying to avoid his desperation bombs. It's ridiculous that the power isn't signficantly reduced when someone is gassed. I've had one good game so far and that was against someone on my friends list. I guess like most games, that's just the way I'm gonna have to rock online. Winning is cool and all but I'd much rather lose if it meant seeing better opponents.

This was the case for me last year, i could land double the % of punches yet somehow it is still a close fight.

I find when their yellow bar is low those desperation bombs are in super slo mo.

My first fight was against the #8 guy in the world. He threw body punch after body punch and never stopped before knocking me out. It's frustrating because that's just not real boxing. They need to really change stamina in this game online.

You might try blocking them. You know, kinda like in real boxing.

Mix up body blocking, keeping your distance, jabs and crosses.

Why didn't you block them? Seriously, when you block a guys big hits, it reduces HIS stamina, so once you block a nice group of them, he's punching slower and s-l-o-w-e-r, leaving his WIDE open for a counter to stun him, then take him out.

Maybe I had a ****ty run of people the other day, because today was the complete opposite. Nothing but really strategic fights. Finally played my first ranked game and beat some dude by decision. He had Pernell Whitaker, and even though I was outpointing him easily, I got stunned a couple of times off some nice counters. Pernell is really quick, I had to pick my shots.
