==Gameplay==
The player takes control of the boxer known as [[Little Mac]], trying to work his way up the tournaments to become the champion, while facing many different and peculiar boxers along the way. Compared to most other boxers, Little Mac has a small array of moves: a left and right jab, left and right body blows, and an uppercut. The uppercut, being his best move, is great for finishing off opponents. However, it can be performed only after Mac earns a star. Stars can be obtained after counter-punching certain enemy attacks before or after they're launched, and are one-time use items. Up to three stars can be acquired at any given time. On the defensive side, Little Mac can perform left and right dodges, duck, or block. Next to the Star meter, which keeps track of how many stars are in the player's possession, there's also a Heart meter to keep track of how many hearts the player has. When the heart meter reaches zero, Little Mac will change his skin color to pink, and will be unable to attack (though defensive moves are still usable during this state). The Heart meter decreases by three upon receiving an enemy attack, and decreases by one when blocking enemy attacks, or when the opposing boxer dodges or blocks the player's attack. The only way to fill the heart meter is by dodging enemy attacks.

A bout will end once one of three criteria are met; Once a boxer can't get up after ten seconds of being knocked down (called a knockout or KO), once a boxer is knocked down three times in one round (called a technical knockout or TKO), or by the referee's decision, if the bout did not have a winner after three rounds. When it is by decision, the Little Mac may win if he has a high enough point total, earned by punching and knocking down the opponent. However, some matches cannot be won this way and will result in an immediate loss once round three is over and the opponent is still standing. Little Mac is only able to stand after being knocked down three times per bout; once he is knocked down a fourth time, it results in an immediate KO for the player.

Each fight has Little Mac throwing punches at his opponent until they are knocked down. Little Mac can punch to the right or left with either a jab or body blow, dodge to the left or right, block the opponent's punches, or use a high-power uppercut if he has a star, which is obtained by punching the opponent in a specific place or at a specific time. Each opponent has a unique move set and weakness.
