EVERYTHING YOU FIND IN REAL BOXING. From the hard-hitting heavyweights to the feisty featherweights, each fighter displays the abilities that made him a champion (or a loser!) TITLE BOUT gives you just about everyone in real life. PUNCHING ACCURACY, DEFENSE, ENDURANCE, KILLER INSTINCT, POWER, THE ABILITY TO TAKE A PUNCH, CONTROL, and much more are rated. Knockdowns, knockouts, scoring, fouls, ring position, injuries—all these are included in the most realistic and exciting computer boxing game on the market today. You can even create your own boxers.

We've packed so much into Computer Title Bout that two disks are utilized.

Simple to Learn

The basic rules to TITLE BOUT, while covering the entire range of possibilities in boxing, can be learned in just a few minutes. These include strategies such as the COVER-UP, FIGHTING INSIDE, FIGHTING OUTSIDE, and going for the KNOCKOUT. Each has its own advantages and risks. Different fighters use these strategies with different frequencies, depending upon what they did in real life.

Perfect for Solitaire

TITLE BOUT is a fast-moving, action-packed game for two players. But the unique structure of the game allows you to play solitaire and have just as much fun.

Rewrite Boxing History

TITLE BOUT is a great game for just playing—pitting your favorite boxer against your friends! But it's also a great way to make your own boxing history. What would have happened if ROCKY MARCIANO had fought the legendary JOHN L. SULLIVAN, SUGAR RAY LEONARD vs MARVIN "Marvelous" HAGLER or if the great JOE LOUIS had met MUHAMMAD ALI when both were in their prime? YOU can find out in TITLE BOUT, as all of the old-time greats appear along with the current rated fighters in every major weight class. And, since we'll be updating boxers as their records change, you'll always be able to put in any new stars that rise on the boxing horizon!
