Anybody can throw a punch. It’s evading those punches that make boxing the sport it is. Fight Night Round 4 retains that quality by rewarding patient fighters with a counter-punch system, while also letting knockout artists enjoy their time in the sun as well.

But at the end of the day, while slugfests are fun, they are not conducive to consistent success. Getting a knockout is nice, but winning on the scorecards definitely still counts. So here are some tools of the trade for the sweet science. They won’t guarantee you a victory, but you will avoid the toss-up nature of a brawl.

my strategy going into a fight is based on my opponents record and their boxer of choice.

if they have a sorry record, I'm looking for a KO within the first 3 rounds. if they're good, I'm looking to box, but 8 times out o 10, they'll be body spamming, so it ends up being a slug fest of sorts because they FORCE close action..

Thanks for the article, but the info is a little vague to be of much use.

If you fight realistically, you will win the majority of the time. It's the body spammers who are very tough to beat. I forget my record but i'm roughly 160-25 in WC mode online. Bob & weave, mix up combos, get in and out and use head movement. This is a recipe for success.

"But at the end of the day, while slugfests are fun, they are not conducive to consistent success." If you want a slugfest go play Facebreaker. Fight Night's are supposed to be sims and it's fun to play people who actually BOX you dummy. I really wish EA would start separating lobbies between chodes who come out and just start swinging, like the douche who wrote this article, and people who want a straight forward boxing match.
