I have previously listed a way to penalize short or tall boxers to result in more realistic sizes and reaches (by effects on speed and power). However, one of the biggest advantage of tall cabs is the ability to lean out of the way of almost all punches against a shorter boxer. Here are a few fixes:
1) Leaning back drains stamina after the first 1 sec. Try leaning back at 60 degrees and holding it for 3-4 seconds while rotating back and forth. Not so easy. Especially if you do it for 10 rounds over and over. Leaning side to side should have a minor stamina drain and leaning forward or upright should recuperate stamina. I have never seen a boxing match where boxers lean away for extended periods like in this game, it is only to avoid a single punch.
2) Leaning back opens up the body. Give boxers more limited block against body shots. If you lean back and thrust your abdomen forward a body punch will hurt really bad. Conversely a leaning forward position should close the body but open up your head. Blocks should be remarkably reduced. This would force boxers to use the lean back quickly and then resume boxing, not lie back for extended periods lookign for a counterpunch with their extreme height.
3. Make leaning drain more stamina if you are taller. It is harder to hold up a tall body. THis would allow the lean to function with minimal change and make it less effective for tall CABS.
