Two boxers start with 50 | Two boxers start with 50 points each. The player starts with a maximum of five hit points, while the opponent starts with two. For each hit a boxer takes, he loses one point. If pushed back, that boxer loses three points. If KO'd, the boxer loses four points, and an additional point is deducted for each TKO the boxer gets (−6 points if KO'd three times). | ||
A boxer's | A boxer's hit points reset when he gets pushed back or when he gets up from the canvas. Every time he gets up from the canvas, he receives one hit point fewer than the previous number. When the number reaches two, the reduction stops. If a boxer has zero points, he receives only one hit point, and if KO'd with zero points, the boxer loses the match. After each time the player defeats their opponent five times, the opponent's hit points increase by one (up to five). If the human player boxer loses a match in a one-player game, a [[Game Over]] occurs. If the boxers continue fighting after nine rounds, the boxer with more points wins. If both boxers have the same number of points after nine rounds, the game ends in a draw. | ||
