This will probably be bad news for anyone who doesn't care for actually fighting, but then anyone who is down on violence is hardly going to be buying a boxing game, are they? Still, it's all here, in the usual D&H style. You can go for the WBC Championship, for the WBA (What've West Bromwich Albion got to do with this? Ed) or even the IBF. You can fix a fight, take a dive, even do TV interviews (although not, sadly, with 'Arry). I am perhaps less drawn to the idea of this one than the other two (which may have been why I left it 'til last), but it's a well-proportioned game nonetheless, with probably little, if any, regard for accuracy. Still, there's a strong sense of atmosphere, even if no-one ever seems to be pummelled a la Mike Tyson and put in hospital (now there's realism!). Rampant pugilists should lap it.","ReviewerComments":[],"OverallSummary":"Hardly the most accurate management sim, but with enough atmosphere and playability to keep you happy.","Page":"56","Denied":false,"Award":"Not Awarded","Reviewers":[{"Name":"Marcus Berkmann","Score":"65","ScoreSuffix":"%"}],"ScreenshotText":[{"Text":"Biff!
