LOL- Jack Bauer, that last line of your post was classic, dude. That is exactly why I bought extended warranties for my controllers.
Another thing that works well against your mates is to hold L1 and throw a series of L-R-L-R hooks to the body. It really drains their energy and most people do not know what to do when getting nailed like that.
I found that it works against the computer opponents too.
Exactly... the CPU gets tired of those body shots... that's leaves the cpu open for 4-5 hooks/combinations to the head. I'm so addicted, this game is great. I usually drop the CPU in the first three rounds (this is with the difficulty all the way up) so I guess you can say I've mastered it. I've got two career modes going on right now... a lightweight and heavyweight and I'm currently the champ on both. I've made Arturo Gatti and Roberto Duran retire (after repeated attempts of them trying to get the belt) and I've made Sonny Liston, Ali, Roy Jones Jr., Chris Byrd, Lennox Lewis, and Joe Frazier retire. Holyfield has been one of the more hard ones.... it took me 7 rounds to KO him. I'm 44-0-0 with 44 KO's. If my ps2 wasn't modded I'd be killing you guys online.
OK, enough with my Ali bragging.. I'm bout to start a middleweight boxing career.
Also... Leaning is the solution to EVERYTHING.... forget about blocking.. leaning is better. It's flashier, and it throws your opponent off when they miss...which usually leaves them open for some kinda retaliation.

:twisted:
