I been playing this game for years and these are the strategies i use in the game:
DURING MATCHES
Jab and move - when you have longer reach and you have better “ring generalship”, advicable to use when your opponent is a power puncher.
Go to the body - when your opponent has low “taking punishment” and/or stamina. also advicable to use when your opponent have good chin, as long as “taking punishment” is 12 or below use this.. dont use it the whole pgame though or you might get counter’d. just use until oppponent run out of stamina then apply pressure the whole game.
smother inside - when you have reach disadvantage. also works well when your opponent has low “taking punishment”, this is advicable to use when your opponent is a power puncher and you’re at a height and reach disadvantage.. this strategy will tire an opponent fast.
pile on pressure - use when you have better ring generalship and/or when opponent have low “taking punishment” or “chin”. switch on to this strategy mid fight or in the later rounds when your opponent is tired and have low stamina. works better when you have a reach advantage.
THESE 3 ARE THE ONLY IMPORTANT STRATEGIES IN THE GAME, The REST ARE NOT VERY EFFECTIVE.
TRY TO SIGN FIGHTERS WHO HAVE ATLEAST
- 15 CHIN
- 15 TAKING PUNISHMENT AND/OR
- 15 DEFENSE SKILL
LAST AND MOST IMPORTANTLY
- 15 RING GENERALSHIP - this is your fighter’s ring iq and ability to control the fight and adjust accordingly to your opponents strategy and fighting style. some fighters will start off their career with low ring generalship, thats ok but try to prioritize improving until it get to 15.
TRY TO GET YOUR BOXERS THE EASIEST FIGHTS POSSIBLE UNTIL THE WORLD TITLE FIGHT COMES , UNTIL THEN ONLY ACCEPT FIGHTS YOU KNOW YOU HAVE A HIGH CHANCE OF WINNING. START YOUR CAREER WITH A STRAWWEIGHT OR LIGHT FLYWEIGHT BOXER , THOSE DIVISIONS ARE THE QUICKEST WAYS TO GET TITLES, THEN START SIGNING BIG TIME PROSPECTS AND START FROM THERE.
GOODLUCK
