1. Introduction
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
This is the first boxing game I've ever played and I was actually impressed.
Boxing games don't seem to be the most popular genre of games. I'm more
accustomed to the wrestling and strategy genres. If you like wrestling games,
give boxing games a try. You may not be able to a piledriver or a superplex,
but combos are a nice thing to experience, since you can't throw combos while
you're in the wrestling ring.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
2. Game Controls

3. Misc. Game Information
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
In Knockout Kings 2000, there all kinds of little things that become helpful
if you know them. Most of the information refers to how to move around the
ring and how to throw combos.
________
Flurries
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
A flurry is a fast, sharp series of punches used to devastate an opponent and,
hopefully, alter the course of the fight. The type of punches furing a flurry
depends on whether your fighter is a "slugger" or a "boxer". To throw a
flurry, press R1 + any basic punch button. A specific flurry is assigned to
each button, allowing you four flurry options. Flurries use up a lot of
stamina - in Slugfest, they use up health instead.

4. Heavyweights

As the title for the section indicates, this section is all about the
Heavyweights in Knockout Kings 2000. They tend to pack a little more punch
due to their size. Enjoy!

Career Capsule:
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
Ali won the gold medal at the 1960 Rome Olympics as a light heavyweight. He
is conisdered by many experts as the greatest heavyweight who ever lived. He
shocked the world with his stunning upset of Sonny Liston (KO 7) in 1964 and
made nine successful title defenses. He regained the title in '74 and became
the 1st man to win the heavyweight crown three times by beating Leon Spinks
in the rematch (W 15) in '78. He had three classic wars with Joe Frazier,
ending the best trilogy in boxing with the "Thrilla In Manilla" in '75.
Fighting Style:
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
"The Greatest" possesses the fastest hands and feet in Heavyweight history.
Besided his lightning quick jabs that sting like a bee, Ali also has probably
one of the hardest chins in the business. He is almost impossible to hit with
just one punch and is an amazing tactical plan on using combatants if you want
to be effective against "The Greatest of All Time."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.2 Frank Bruno
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Record: 40-5 (38)
Height: 6'3"

Career Capsule:
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
Bruno became the 3rd Heavyweight Champion from England with a 12 round
unanimous decision victory in 1995 to clain a portion of the heavyweight title.
Bruno was beoved by the British fans for his gentlemanly manners and outgoing
personality. He also had good skills, but failed against some of the best
heavyweights in the late- 1980s and early- 1990s. He lost a bid for a piece
of the heavyweight title in 1993 to Lennox Lewis, who knocked out Bruno in the
7th round.
Fighting Style:
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
Bruno has knockout power setup by his steady, consistent jab. He is also one
of the best conditional heavyweights, able to go into the later rounds against
some of the better heavyweights of today. Try and lay some power on Bruno
early, hoping to catch him off guard.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.3 Eric "Butterbean" Esch
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Record: 44-1-1 (34)
Height: 6'0"

ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Lead Hook (B)
Overhand Cross (H)
Career Capsule:
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
"Butterbean" got his start in boxing through tough-guy competitions. He is one
of the most entertaining boxers today, taking on anyone in a 4 round contest.
Butterbean has had only one professional loss.
Fighting Style:
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
Butterbean has tremendous power, and fires off good combinations. Defense is
a glaring area Butterbean lacks. Try and keep your distance in the 1st four
rounds to avoid getting knocked out. Going for points is one path to victory.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.4 Jack Dempsey
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Record: 61-6-8 (50), 6 no- decisions
Height: 6'0"
Weight: 180 Lbs.

ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Lead Hook (B)
Overhand Cross (H)
Career Capsule:
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
Dempsey was the 1st Superstar of boxing in the roaring twenties with his
tenacious, aggressive style. He won the heavyweight title in 1919 by beating
an opponent who outweighed him by 58 pounds and then went on to successfully
defend the title six times. Dempsey was so popular, he participated in the
first million- dollar gate in 1921. Dempsey came from a poor, large family.
He honed his boxing skills working odd jobs in mining and timber camps, often
challenging any man on the street to beat him.
Fighting Style:
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
"The Manessa Mauler" is known for his tenacious attack- or- be- attacked style.
Fighting out of a crouch, Dempsey will bob and weave his way toward an
opponent, then spring out at his foe like a coiled cobra. He has great
recovery ability but has trouble dealing with boxers who also posess quick hand
speed and footwork. Watch out for his left hooks to the head and body.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.5 Joe Frazier
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Record: 32-4-1 (27)
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 205 Lbs.

ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
Specialty Punches: Lead Hook (H)
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Lead Hook (B)
Lunging Lead Hook (H)
Career Capsule:
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
Joe Frazier began boxing to lose weight, and eventually became a fine amateur
winning the gold medal at the 1964 Olympics. Frazier later became Heavyweight
Champion and held the title from 1970 to '73, but he is most noted for being
probably the toughest opponent Muhammad Ali ever faced. Frazier handed Ali
his first Pro defeat in "The Fight of The Century" in 1971 taking a 15- round
decision. Frazier floored Ali for only the third time in Ali's career in the
final round of that bout. Their series carried on into '75, concluding with
"The Thrilla in Manilla," when Frazier was unable to answer the bell for the
15th round.
Fighting Style:
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
"Smokin" Joe has the most fearsome left hook in Heavyweight history. Because
of his short stature, the 5'11" Frazier will bob and weave his way inside then
hammer away with his devastating hook. He is not noted for his defense, so
take advantage whenever you can by working the jab and throwing combinations.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.6 Michael Grant
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Record: 30-0 (21)
Height: 6'7"

Career Capsule:
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
Grant is one of the best young Heavyweights to surface in recent years. He
has a couple of significant victories, and is looking to make some headway
among the Heavyweight elite going into the next century. Though he started
boxing late in life, Grant has risen quickly to top- contender status, and
has a promising future.
Fighting Style:
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
At 6'7", 250 pounds, Grant can be an overwhelming physical presence in the
ring. He has an 86" reach, with a jab that packs power. Though he owns a
considerable reach advantage over many of his opponents, he often fights inside.
He also has a tendency to fight your fight, so take it to him. Grant does
possess a granite-like chin.

1978. Larry defended the title an amazing 16 times. He was a sparring partner
for Muhammad Ali in the early stages of his career and was the dominant
Heavyweight the first half of the 1980s. Larry Holmes took all comers and
reigned the Heavyweight division for seven years.
Fighting Style:
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
"The Easton Assasin" has good power, picking away at his opponents with his
bread and butter jab. He shows a quick ability to recover. Also, watch out
for Larry's crushing right cross.

Specialty Punches: Cross (H)
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Jab (H)
Lead Hook (H)
Career Capsule:
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
Holyfield will go down in boxing history as only the second man besides
Muhammad Ali to win the Heavyweight title three times. A former Cruiserweight
champion, Holyfield won his first title in 1988, lost it in his 4th title
defense in '97, and regained it in '93. When it was believed he was past his
prime, he won a portion of the Heavyweight crown a third time in '96.
Fighting Style:
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
"The Real Deal" has a tremendous heart, granite chin, and the ability to absorb

patient and try to catch him late in the fight.

because the Olympic committee questioned his effort in the gold-medal match.
He had a short professional career, sparked by his stunning third- round
knockout of Floyd Patterson to win the Heavyweight title in 1959. he lost his
first title defense, a rematch with Patterson in which he fell by 5th round
knockout. In the third match with Patterson, Johansson knocked down the
champion twice before Patterson recovered to score a 6th round knockout in '61.
Fighting Style:
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
"Ingo" relies on a powerful right hand known as the "Hammer of Thor;" this punch
