About This Game
One of the first boxing games to feature stamina management - excessive punching drains energy, requiring strategic pacing between rounds.
Includes a training mini-game between fights where players must hit the speed bag to restore stamina.
The European version was retitled 'The Ring' due to licensing issues, with all Rocky characters renamed.
