Interesting one for me. This game is often referred as one if not the best boxing game out there by a lot boxing purists. Mainly due to it's heavily detailed career mode so I had to give it a go.
I was pretty excited launching it up since I love games like Fight Night, Ring King, ect. So i boot up arcade mode and i get my ass whooped immediately, the movement felt terrible and so fast that it feels like you activated turbo on an emulator or something. Despite all that, due to my love for HNI, I kept going (and mapped the "sway" button that for some reason is not mapped, please do that) and started getting used to the crazy pace the game has. Despite feeling so arcadey, it's pretty detailed, sticking to your strengths is essential, so having knowledge about the characters style can be pretty useful.
If you want to try the career mode a guide is pretty much mandatory if you're looking to have any success (unless you know japanese and are a nutritionist lol). I used this guide myself and it led me to a WBA title :) https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zN2xE2EADInboBMxLi-6TScuA9k2VyKYkpVs7b1STQg/edit
