I’d rather fight Mike Tyson in real life than try to beat him in this game. I can barely beat Glass Joe.Įventually, you move up to facing Mike Tyson himself. Little Mac is fast, but he’s still small. You play as Little Mac, a tiny boxer beating his way through ethnic stereotypes until he becomes the champion of the world.

Mario is your ref and your opponents are eight times your size. Since 8-bit Nintendo had no hope of handling a realistic boxing game, Punch-Out!! is ridiculous and fun. If you had an NES, you’ll remember this classic. Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!! is the boxing game of the ’80s. Whether you’re mesmerized by the hype and spectacle surrounding the unlikely match-up or don’t care much for the sport, these five boxing games will definitely keep you entertained. Five-division professional boxing world champion Floyd Mayweather and MMA Lightweight Champion fighter Conor McGregor face off this weekend in what some are touting as the “fight of the century.” Personally, we’d prefer being inside the virtual ring.
