Personal review
Despite the boring title, Boxing isn't a bad game. The gameplay is a bit disorienting, since it starts in a three-quarter view of the ring, then switches to first-person once you're close to your opponent, then back to three-quarter when they've backed away. If they had stuck to just one, particularly the first-person view, the game would be far better off. Boxing is essentially an attempt to create Punch-Out!! for the Game Boy with the added ability to customize your boxer's stats. Although the characters are far less interesting (despite the amusing parodies of famous boxer names), it might be worth picking up if you like the series it tries to emulate.
