Boxing question... Xbox Fight Night 2

[dashit]

My boxer is age 45 and is a fatass ... no matter how good i train, his stats keep on dropping and physique gets worse....i got knocked down once and couldnt get back up.

age is a factor?

Does anyone know if there are extra fighters that can be unlocked in this game?

I have 3 belts right now and I have only unlock things in the fight store.

frikkin hope there is extra stuff... I got all three titles too and most stuff unlocked and now it's just title defense after title defense...

getting boring there now, EA Sports... gotta jazz up more than just the graphics...

This game is awesome. Only problem is I don't know how to parry. I'm on my 8th pro fight and I've execute a parry like 2 times and they were by accident. Any tips how parrying? Man I was so pissed that I was in round 5 of this one fight where I was beating the guy pretty convincingly. I had already knocked him down 4 times then out of the blue he throws a haymaker and without any notice I go down and my friggin guy wasn't able to get back up . My only knockdown and I wasn't able to get up. Sigh...

Yep... those damn parrys were hard as hell to figure out. Do an upper block and hold it up; when the other guy throws a punch and they hit your block, swing your arms and his punch will swing away from you. Thats a parry.

you just have to read your opponents, what i usually do is move in and out without having your hands up, most of the time the opponent will do a haymaker either left or right, itll take him about 2 seconds, so by then you can have your block up left or right, then do a counter haymaker and a combo.

wayyy sicker than the first fight night!

all my stats are high except for my agility. how can u boost the agility? i do the focus training on the punching bag and the combo dummy but the most i can get is +3 for agility on the punching bag (which seems to be the max). through the combo dummy, i can barely get + 2 pts.

what is the most effective way to boost agility?
i've purchased the trainers for speed and power, but they did not seem to help me boost my stats any higher than usual.. am i missing
what is the best way to do the combo dummy? should i make sure i hit the pattern correctly even if i am slow at it? or work on speed, if so, how do u do it fast - it seems to say i am too slow at it when it im hitting them less than a second apart.

I can't stand the combo dummy. The absolute worse was the speed gloves in part 1. I think I made contact maybe 3 times I'm not joking. Any tips on combos? I just keep throwing body shots. I find them to be most affective and they get through more often than not. And what's up with the specialty punch? it does like zero damage. Haymakers are 10x more affective.

Best way to jack up your stats is to get better gear in the fight store. For example, you can buy new shorts or gloves that give you +speed or +agillity.

That freakin combo dummy sucks big time... Now if only you could import characters that were created in the first game.

Anyone here play DefJam: fight for NY? Now that's a sweet fighting game...

Ya played that game, pretty good. Decent length, cool cinematics. Nice story mode, good customization. Sick moves. Pretty fun multiplayer.
Totally agree with you. Too bad it's so cheap now and old.
