If you are a boxing fan, you have undoubtedly heard that saying, which serves as the foundation of this game. There is a great deal of truth in those three words and Legends of Boxing is designed to bring that fistic chemistry to life.


A Brief Introduction to LOB

 

When I had the idea to create my own boxing game, I wanted fighter's styles to merge into certain types of action. This has remained a core concept and therefore a fighter's strategies, or modes, are an integral part of a his ratings in this game, reflecting his tendency to be defensive, fight from the outside, brawl on the inside, or "walk down" and pressure his opponent.

After ten years and hundreds of simulated fights, I still enjoy playing Legends of Boxing (LOB).  Even better, I have enjoyed sharing my hobby with hundreds of other gamers all over the world.  

Enjoy the game!
