It's basically luring your opponent into thinking you are hurt...let them hit you to the point you are in the red...keep doing this...BUT DON'T..I REPEAT...DON'T let them knock you down...this is vital...
Once they have you in the red multiple times and don't knock you down...they usually get restless and throw A LOT of punches...make sure when they have this "attack surge" make sure you defend and don't get hit...
A good way to lure the opponent in is to crouch a lot...so they instinctivley go for the body hook...but after crouching for a second, stand back up... move back...cross arms...move back and fourth..don't just stand still, keep moving...even wiggle your head a lot!!! JUST DON'T STAND STILL!!!

Ok...if you follow those instructions, and survive up until the 10th round...this is when you implament the second phase of strategy... by the 10th round...your opponent should be really gassed and tired...your stamina bar should be full... this is the time where I tend to counter punch...and then follow the counters with forward moving and pressure... lots of punches in bunches!!! Keep this up until you knock him out...
(DO NOT LEAVE IT TO POINTS...THIS STRATEGY IS DESIGNED FOR KO or TKO ONLY!!!)

A lot of you will disagree with me and say it's a lame tactic...but it worked for me against a lot of fighters...however it doesn't work against smart fighters...so only use this tactic against aggressive fighters that like to attack!

Hope that helps!

LOL what mug would get fooled by that get out of here

I believe you tried this on me the last time we fought. All it lead to was a 15-0 points victory for me. You gotta use offense to win this game bro. For the most part, the best fighters ever were offensive machines.

I think it looks silly if you're just in it to survive and say, "So and so didn't KO me. This is a great accomplishment for me."

Lol i WAS offensive...when i tryed to use tht style the game became boring even if i was winning a little bit more than my regular style it was still not worth not havn fun while playn...
Dont be too defensive just b SMART theres a difference between the 2.
Defensive is like when u just go back and forth in and outta range n throw 4 punches a round and try to when while ur opponent is swining..
SMART is when u time ur opponent,counter punch and not do dumb things like slug n try to get a KD when in red...

-Skillz-
