Guest Plushy Al Logan Report post Posted February 13, 2003 My opinions on all the boxers: Glass Joe: If you lose to him, you should never be allowed near a video game system. Von Kaiser: See Glass Joe Piston Honda: See Glass Joe for first fight, but actually fights in second fight Don Flamenco: Shittiest boxer in the game, but greatset boxer in the world in second fight. King Hippo: Funny fat guy who no-sells, kind of reminds me of the Big Show. Great Tiger: His magic sucked Bald Bull: Punch Out! equivalent of Bradshaw Soda Popinski: I never beat Vodka Drunkensi Mr. Sandman: How do you beat him? Super Macho Man: He was funny when I was younger Mike Tyson: See Mr. Sandman Also, I could have sworn that Bear Hugger in the second one was John Tenta.

Guest JangoFett4Hire Report post Posted February 13, 2003 Wow, the memories... although I'm totally blanking on the sandman. What did he look like, who was his clone, and what was his gimmick? I think I beat Super Macho Man like once or twice, but retired from the sport before I ever got to defeat Iron Mike. I did last a round though with Tyson, i believe.

Guest ant_7000 Report post Posted February 13, 2003 I remember I could beat everyone but Tyson. Macho Man was pretty hard after that super tornado punch he does after you knock him down, and I would be dizzy after he did it thats how I would get knock down. But I eventually learn how to beat him. Now, I have to do is beat Tyson. Someone said they couldn't beat Sandman, he basically no sells in the 1st round and it usually took me to beat him in the 3rd round. Move away from his haymaker punches and work on his lower body thats his weak spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Spaceman Spiff Report post Posted February 13, 2003 Only beat Tyson once, and it was by decision. Of course, I took the easy route, using the code to skip right to Tyson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest crandamaniac Report post Posted February 13, 2003 How do you beat Bald Bull? I've been playing the game like mad and each time I get to him, he uses that damn Bull Charge, then beats me by decision. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Renegade Report post Posted February 13, 2003 If you time your punch right (body punch) you can counter the charge big time. EDIT: I'm talking about the super punch out bald bull, sorry. The guy that always pissed me off in SPO was the old guy in the special circuit, I could never get him down for even one round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Black Lushus Report post Posted February 14, 2003 I remember Super Macho Man being a tad on the hard side on Super Punch Out even with a Game Genie... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest CED Ordonez Report post Posted February 14, 2003 I had so much trouble getting the timing down on Super Macho Man's discus punches. IIRC, the Mike Tyson's Punch-Out version of Mr. Sandman can be beaten by punching him once in the face after a dodge then attacking his body while he's stunned. Only threat I can remember was his flurry of uppercuts that hurt big time if they connected. It's been a long time since I played, so I'm probably wrong. Renegade, Hoi Quarlow from Super Punch Out is indeed a bitch with that stick and his f'n backfist that gets me every time. I just wanted to kick the TV when he gave me his old man laugh after beating me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest T®ITEC Report post Posted February 14, 2003 "Mike Tyson's Punch Out": Great Tiger always kicked my ass when I was a little kid. Then again, I was lucky when I got that far. Before I put away the NES (at age 9), Glass Joe was defeating me with remarkable speed. I knew then that it was time to let it go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest crandamaniac Report post Posted February 14, 2003 When Glass Joe can hand you your ass, that's pretty pathetic. I love how when you're fighting him, he steps back to taunt, and then you hit him in the face and KNOCK HIS ASS OUT! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bravesfan Report post Posted February 14, 2003 The guy that always pissed me off in SPO was the old guy in the special circuit, I could never get him down for even one round. Ditto. Even with an emulator, I can't beat this guy. His patterns are simply the hardest to memorize, that I can recall from both console versions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Spaceman Spiff Report post Posted February 14, 2003 Well, I didn't KO him. Were there TKO's in the game? It is going back like 15 years, so maybe my memory is a little fuzzy, but I'm pretty sure it was by decision. Hmmm... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest KoR Fungus Report post Posted February 14, 2003 If you get three knockdowns in a round, you win by TKO. Tyson has a lot of endurance, though, so knocking him down three times in one round would be pretty tough. I always had the most trouble with Super Macho Man. Sandman's pretty easy once you realize that you have to hit him once in the face and then go to the body, and Tyson's not too bad if you can get past the 90 seconds of dynamite punches, but Super Macho Man's spin punches are just nasty. When he'd do seven or eight of them, I'd always mess up the timing and go down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest IDrinkRatsMilk Report post Posted February 15, 2003 I have a lovely rom, called "Nude Punch Out". The only boxer in the game not totally naked is King Hippo... thankfully. Little Mac is also fully clothed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mik at Cornell Report post Posted February 15, 2003 I don't know how many of you are in college, but in a college dorm room, someone will ALWAYS have an NES. It's like a fuckin' rule. We played this game a lot my Fresh year (2 years ago) and I got really good. I can beat Super Macho Man without getting hit, and I once destroyed Tyson but lost the decision (because you can't win it). Tyson is tough, but his super punches only last for the first 1:30 and then he's normal, albeit very f'n hard. I love punch out. And the person who said punch Sandman in the face and then go to the stomach is 100% correct. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Jack Tunney Report post Posted February 15, 2003 I've beaten Super-Punch Out without getting hit once. As for the NES version,I can't make it past Super Macho Man.And how in the hell are you supposed to beat Mike Tyson?It's impossible to hit him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Stunt Granny Report post Posted February 15, 2003 SPO is one of the easiest games ever. But Punch Out is much tougher. If King Hippo didn't have a bandage on his belly nobody would have EVER beat him. You can showcase the injury like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest DrTom Report post Posted February 16, 2003 Super Macho Man is a lot harder than Mike Tyson. Tyson's actually pretty easy once you learn the patterns, and recognize that he flashes before he throws those huge uppercuts. If you can dodge him for the first half of Round 1, you should be in good shape. I typically TKO him in the second round, occasionally the third, when playing on an emulator, and I managed to duplicate that playing on an actual NES about a year or so ago. I never played Super Punch Out. Edit: Sometimes, I suck at typing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Fook_Hing_Ho Report post Posted February 16, 2003 When I was a kid, the farthest I ever got was Soda Popinski. Now that I'm older, wiser, and have access to an emulator, I can dominate both Punch Outs. And yes, Super Macho Man is harder than Tyson. Took me forever to get the timing right on his spins.

Guest LaParkaMarka Report post Posted February 16, 2003 Did anyone else have the Punch Out without Mike Tyson? He wasn't there for some reason, and the last boss was "Mr. Dream". Yes, this was for NES. No, I am not drunk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest CED Ordonez Report post Posted February 16, 2003 Did anyone else have the Punch Out without Mike Tyson? He wasn't there for some reason, and the last boss was "Mr. Dream". Yes, this was for NES. No, I am not drunk. You would be correct. There was a version created just called "Punch Out!" in the dying days of the NES. Mike Tyson's name and likeness were eliminated in later version and replaced with the fictional Mr. Dream after Tyson either lost his title or got incarcerated. I'm inclined to believe that the latter is the correct reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
