me and my cousin used to set up tournaments and wtach the computer fight :(

MOMMAS BOY!

[MrFuckaire]

But if I build power over stamina I will get amazing KO's even ones over big guys in the first round sometimes using a medium guy! But often there will be fights where I am winnig every round, the fights over, and I get caught. And BAM! all black, no red! OUCH! But again nice work! Games like these are will never die!!!

[MrFuckaire]

I agree, nice work! Yep for cpu strategy, these short guys work the best but against even a mediocre opponent that's player 2, these strategies won't work. I think medium size is the best all around but guys like Fireman Jones can be a pain in the ass. I can win the title in 12-0. But I use a medium guy but I build stamina over power and max speed of course. I find this is better all around as it takes rounds but I never lose.

[Smotile]

Nice job working over Fireman. I might need to consider going to small (I use large) since this guy usually takes me over several rounds to finally knock out since he's unusually fast. Donald Ghost is the only CPU I haven't managed to beat in the top 10 since he's actually tricky.

[DTysonator]

You're welcome! :)

Yep, the medium sized fighters are definitely the best all around.

Thanks so much, I always wanted to know.

Because I would always pick the medium sized guy not sure what the differences were. But medium suits my style of play anyway.

[DTysonator]

Finally, the largest fighters are the easiest to use when fighting from a distance. They can jab to the head and body all night long for an easy victory. Mixing this strategy up with some stiff uppercuts will ensure a TKO victory at the very least.

However, these fighters are more likely to suffer body damage and sneaky uppercuts due to their lack of speed. The medium sized fighters are much quicker.

Overall, the big boys are tough to beat when they happen to be fully powered.

[DTysonator]

Good question, guts1992! Well, in the case of the smallest sized fighters, they possess the most powerful power punches (uppercuts), but these fighters are more vulnerable to long range attacks, especially by larger fighters.

The medium sized fighters are the best all around fighters (Ali), combining speed, a reasonable amount of reach advantage, as well as better defensive abilities than the smallest fighters...

[guts1992]

What advantages do each size have?
