ast486: I'm playing mouse and keyboard for reference sake.
Now that I've gone through the whole game, I've gotten a much better view of the boxing system.... and it's full of cheating shit:
-I double tab back to get out of range, being a good 5 to 6 feet away and the enemy still hits.
-I dodge around at least 90 degrees to their left and the enemy still auto-turns mid charge to hit.
-the controls don't respond for a good full second sometimes.
-the last enemy auto blocks after you punch him.
-he also teleports;
No joke: I used the age old boxing strategy of driving him into the corner to pound on him and the game teleports him out.
Valid points. On my case I was playing very Hard with strength 8 thinking those battles would be with skill. Naturally, for the third fighter the Gorilla Arms became mandatory for me due it was not only skill. I felt those same issues.

I'll not say anything against the champion because he is broken. Even the characters on the arena tell you HOW BROKEN is him. That is why you get an alternative. With my character focused on coolness and mechanical ability, I was a joke (until I found a glitch on the corner and beat the system). But obviously, this encounter is a battle aimed for those who focused on strength.
P.s. The teleport probably is new. Before Jan/2021 I was able to corner him.
