WHICH WOULD YOU RATHER HAVE?
A LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT OR A HEAVY LIGHTWEIGHT?*
Barry McGuigan World Championship Boxing. The first computer boxing game to give you 'real-life' action with all the style and strategy of the big fight.
Round One. You're up against 19 top boxers including, the champ himself, Barry McGuigan. You'd better box clever to beat these boys.
Round Two. You're aiming for the title. Time to create your very own boxing partner. You decide how he looks, how he fights. You put him through his paces to build up stamina and endurance.
Round Three. What a fight! What a champ! It's a knock-out!
* We know he is the best featherweight, but we thought it was a good line.
