Rocky - Legends - Platform: XBox

Easy knockdown:
---------------
At the beginning of the initial fight when your opponent is approaching you, use 
your special power punch. This will stagger him. When he approaches you again, 
hit him with another special power punch, then attack him with an array of body 
punches. His strength will drop. Keep attacking him to knock him down and thus 
win the fight.

Career mode development:
------------------------
Max out your speed first, then your strength. This helps in the matches because 
all you have to do is keep throwing hooks, then when your opponent is dazed, use 
your Super Punch to knock him down. After you have maxed out speed and strength, 
you should be able to defeat all of your opponents with ease using hooks.
