The Champ Amiga

Boxing causes brain damage? I dunno what you mean 'Arry. It's an art, a sort of ballet with knockouts. At least you won't get hurt playing Linel's version of the 'gentlemanly' sport. You are a young fighter on being WBC champion. To achieve this you'll need to beat the existing champion. But he won't fight you straight away, so you must defeat a number of lesser opponents before you get a title shot. After a couple of backstreet fights you're spotted by a manager who will train you in the gym with the sandbag, punchbag and skipping rope. How well you do here determines your 'condition' for the next fight.

During a bout the boxer is controlled in typical beat-'em up style and can win either by a knockout (reducing the opponent's energy level to zero) or on points.
