About
This is the main event, Kid!
Out of of the limo, into the ring, it’s like a movie. But when the bell rings, it’s just you and him! If you’ve got the speed, the muscle, the heart… you might last a round!
Key Features
- Classic boxing action in TruVideo with realistic, instantaneous control.
- Trainers, cornermen, referees, hecklers…they’ll shout their opinions on your performance.
- Directed by Ron Stein, creator of the boxing sequences in the Rocky movies and Raging Bull.
- You’re “the Kid,” so you won’t get a shot at the Champ ’til you fight your way past three tough hombres.
- Meet your defeat with:
- Honeyboy Hernandez – He’s young, he’s green, but he learned what he knows on the street.
- Mega Joe Falco – A southpaw challenger with lots of experience and skill.
- T. Rex Hawkins – He’s a real contender, tougher than he looks, and he looks like an industrial machine.
- Nuke “The Duke” Johnson – The Champeen. Floats like a stealth bomber, stings like a cruise missile.
