The Effects of Aging

Just like in real life, The Boxing Game fighters get old and their skills deteriorate. The effects of this aging process are described below.

After 40 or more fights - All bonus ability points will always go to strength or toughness, i.e., you won't gain agility or speed unless you train specifically for it. This also means that your fighter will probably start gaining a little weight.

After 50 or more fights - all abilities earned through training and bonuses will go to strength or toughness. At this point your fighter will definitely start packing on the pounds (if you are winning).

After 60 or more fights - All abilities gained from training and winning will go to strength or toughness. At this point in a fighters career he will have a very difficult time staying competitive.

Injury points will also be affected in both positive and negative ways. New fighters, youthful and healthy will be less affected and older fighters will deteriorate more rapidly as follows...

 

Fighter Retirement

If you feel that your fighter has had a bad month or you're just sick of his constant complaining you can Retire him.

To do this simply open your fighter's page & click on the lovely silver button that has the word Retire on it (Makes sense huh...).

At this point you will be warned that it may take over a week before your fighter gets another fight once you Unretire him.
This is to prevent unscrupulous managers dodging fights that don't suit them.

Please note that if your fighter has a fight scheduled he will NOT be retired until after this fight has been run.

To Unretire your fighter at a later date simply open up his page & click on the other silver button called Unretire. Your fighter will then be scheduled a bout AFTER the next round of scheduled fights in your division has been run.

FIGHTER HELP INDEX

Auto Retirement of fighters

Fighters will be retired automatically under the following circumstances:

1. The fighter has lost at least once and he has no fight plan or an empty fight plan
2. The fighter lost his last fight, has a winning percentage of .500 or less and has a fight plan that is over 3 weeks old
3. The manager's account is suspended or closed
4. The managers status switches from member to guest. The manager will then be able to reactivate up to 5 fighters

Your fighter can return to the game at any time in his career. There is a restriction on when exactly he can enter the rankings again.

In order to minimize fight picking fighters can only make a comeback after the scheduler for their weight division is finished running. Currently that is less than 3 days before the fights run.

FIGHTER HELP INDEX

Dumping A Fighter

If you have a fighter that just isn't doing well you can dump him. This removes him from your gym permanently. Once you dump a fighter he can be purchased at auction by another manager with all proceeds going to the game.

Fight Plan Options

There are various options you can use to add more detail to your fighter's instructions.

You have 20 energy points to allocate for the parameters that will represent a boxers aggressiveness, power and defense. The parameters consist of three numbers with this format:

#/#/#

#+#+# = 20 energy points

The first number indicates the amount of punches being thrown or aggressiveness. (each energy point used will be approximately 8 punches thrown)

The second number indicates the amount of power or strength being used.

The third number indicates the amount of defense your fighter is using in the ring.

aggressiveness/power/defense

Examples:

5/5/10 - Fighter is throwing even hard punches while defending himself well.  This set of parameters would indicate that the fighter is looking to win rounds while causing some damage to his opponent, protecting himself at the same time.

4/12/4 - Fighter is throwing few and very hard punches while only defending himself very little.  This would represent a fighter that is looking for the KO or trying to cause a great deal of injury to his opponent, but not trying to win the round by punch count and leaving himself wide open to receive damage.

7/1/12 - Fighter is jabbing a high volume of punches that are not hard but he is defending himself very well.  He is definitely trying to win the rounds by punch count while defending himself from injury and damage, but isn't inflicting any damage or injury to his opponent. 

Every energy point you do not use is considered resting.  Be careful when you do rest to protect your fighter with greater defense, but resting can allow your fighter to outlast his opponent in endurance for the end game of the fight.

Example:

1/1/14 (ring) (resting 4)

1/1/10 (clinch) (resting 8)

Next, you can indicate that you would like to throw head punches during a certain round by putting an H or h after the aggressiveness number, as in:

10H/5/5

or

10h/5/5

Similarly, you can indicate that you would like to throw body blows by using a B or b:
5B/5/10

or

5b/5/10

If you don't use a B or an H in a given round, then your fighter will box opportunistically for that round and land more punches.

A Fight Plan consists of a set or series of parameters that may include variables and conditionals.  Each round is represented by using the round number followed by a parentheses.

1) - represents round 1

2) - represents round 2

10) - represents round 10

This allows you to change the parameters and style of your fighter so that he can adjust to the conditions of the fight.

Example 1:

1) 5B/5/10
3) 6B/7/7
8) 7H/8/5
In the above strategy, the fighter is throwing body blows for the first seven rounds while throwing more and harder after the second round and then switching to head punches from the eighth to twelfth round.  As the fight resolver reads the fight plan from the bottom up at the beginning of every round it will find the next correct statement within the fight plan to use.  In the twelfth round, the next correct statement is 8) 7H/8/5, so in the twelfth round the fighter would throw 7H/8/5. 

Example 2 with variables:
1) 8/1/11 (ring)
3) 1/1/18 (ring)
3) if score <=1 then 8/1/11 (ring)  

In this example the fighter throws a high volume of punches from the first to second round trying to win the rounds by decision.  In round three if the score is less than or equal 1 then the fighter will throw 8/1/11, but if the score is greater than 1 then the next correct statement would be 3) 1/1/18, in which the fighter would not throw hardly any punches while trying to protect himself very well.  This FP would be an example for use with a dancer type fighter, where the fighter has little strength but a great deal of agility and is looking to win fights by mainly decision.

Example 3 with variables:
1) 4h/12/4 (clinch)
2) 4b/12/4 (clinch)

12) 4h/12/4 (inside)

2) if opp=tired then 5h/10/5 (allout)

In this example the fighter comes out in the first round throwing hard to the head looking to cause injuries using the clinch style.  The last statement of this FP equals if the round is 2 or greater and the opponent is tired then 5h/10/5 (allout) and if this is true to the fight resolver for the second round or on then the fighter will throw 5h/10/5 (allout), however if this is not true then the next correct statement would be 2) 4b/12/4 (clinch), in which case the fighter would throw 4b/12/4 (clinch), going hard to the body using the clinching style of fighting.  This would continue threw every round until or if the last statement 2) if opp=tired then 5h/10/5 (allout) becomes true to the fight resolver when it starts its search for the first true statement as it reads the FP from the bottom up.  If this statement isn't true for the twelfth round then the fight resolver will use the next correct statement 12) 4h/12/4 (inside), in which the fighter would come out in the twelfth round fighting inside and throwing hard to the head.  This FP would be an example of a slugger or strong fighter against a dancer type fighter.

Fighting Styles

You may choose one of the following fighting styles for your fighter:
Fighting - The basic fighting style.

Inside - The fighter moves in close to throw powerful uppercuts and hooks.
Clinch - The fighter holds his opponent to avoid being hit and to bring him closer to land body blows.
Feint - The fighter tries to fake out his opponent to land more blows.
Counter - A fast fighter uses his speed for defense, as well as offense.
Ring - The fighter defends himself using movement and footwork.
Chase or Corner - The fighter uses his agility advantage to corner his opponent.
Outside - The fighter stays away from his opponent using jabs and tries to tie up his opponent whenever he attacks at close range.
Allout To inflict damage or score a KO the fighter ignores his opponent's counter-attacks and just hits.

A fighting style can be indicated by putting a keyword in parentheses next to the instruction.  Using no keyword will result in the boxer using the Fighting style, as in the following examples:
5/5/10 = comes out fighting

6B/7/7 (inside) = fighting inside
5/10/5 (clinch) = clinching opponent
7H/8/5 (feint) = feinting against opponent

15/1/4 (ring) = using the ring

6/6/8 (chase) or (corner) = chase or corner the opponent

3h/10/7 (outside) = fighting outside

4h/12/4 (allout) = going all out on the opponent

Your fighter may choose to Fight Dirty in any given round. This is indicated by an ! after the power number. For example:
1) 5/5/10 (counter)
7) 6/7!/7 (feint)
8) 7H/8!/5 (inside)
This fighter fights dirty starting with round 7.

You can also chose different types of variables in your fight plan. Variables are additional things you can add to your FP's to give them more depth and accuracy.

The Round Variable - allows you to depict a bracket of rounds or to choose greater than or less than certain rounds.

The Hiscuts Variable - allows you to gauge your opponents fighter's injuries.

The MyCuts Variable - allows you to gauge your own fighter's injuries.

The Opponent Variable - gauges your opponents fighter's endurance.

The Score Variable - depicts your corner's scoring of the fight, whether your fighter is ahead or behind in the score cards.

The Warnings Variable - allows you to keep track of the amount of warnings the referee has issued your fighter.

The Endurance Variable - it allows you keep accurate track of your fighter's endurance during the fight.

Using these variables in combination to create variable equations and conditionals will add even greater depth to your FP's.

Example 1:

2) if hiscuts > mycuts then 5h/10/5 (inside)

This would mean if hiscuts are greater than mycuts then 5h/10/5 (inside)

This example would be a conditional that would be used if you wanted your fighter to take advantage of his opponent's injuries. 

Example 2:

3) if score <=1 and end >=90 then 9/1/10 (outside)

This would mean if score is less than or equal 1 and endurance is greater than or equal to 90 then 9/1/10 (outside)

This example would be representative of a conditional that might be found in a dancer type fighter's FP, who looks to win fights by decisions.

Example 3:

10) if opp = hurt and end >= 140*0.69 and mycuts = 0 then 4h/12!/4 (allout)

This would mean if opponent equals hurt and endurance is greater than or equal than 69% of 140(starting endurance) and mycuts equal 0 then 4h/12!/4 (allout)

This example represents a conditional in a fight plan that is looking to see if the opponent is hurt and if the fighter has enough endurance and no injuries to go for the KO, and maybe throw in some head butts or elbows to accomplish it.

Example 4:

9) if end >=140-(round-1)*10 and score <=-2 then 6/6/8 (ring)

This would mean if endurance is greater than or equal 10 damage received in the previous round from 140(starting endurance) and score is less than or equal to negative 2(losing by 2 points) then 6/6/8 (ring)

In this example the conditional is seeing how much damage was done in the previous round and if the fighter is losing by 2 points.

Experimenting with variable equations will develop your own basis for your favorite conditionals to add to your fight plans.  For further reading on other variable equations and conditionals check out the Strategy forum.

FIGHT PLAN HELP Index

Head Shots

(The H or h Modifier)

Description:
A fighter may choose to throw punches primarily to their opponent's head in any given round by simply adding the letter H after the aggression energy point allocation number. This means your fighter will specifically target the head region of your opponent in an attempt to open up cuts or increase the chance of a knockdown. It can be used in combination with the Fighting Dirty (!) modifier, but not the Body Blows (B) fight style modifier. When no modifier is used in this position your fighter will box opportunistically, throwing a combination of punches, including head shots and body blows.

Example:
5H/10/5 (inside)

or

5h/10/5 (inside)

Advantages:
Throwing head punches increases the chance of knockdowns and knockouts. It also helps to create and aggravate cuts and injuries to your opponent.

Disadvantages:
By throwing punches primarily to the head, the percentage of your fighter's punches landed is lowered. Long-term fight damage to your opponent is also decreased using this modifier.

Who should use this fight modifier:

• A fighter that wishes to try and Knock Down or Knock Out his opponent, used in those rounds in which a KD/KO is desired.
• Slugger type fighters in the later rounds of a bout.
• A fighter whose opponent is hurt.
• A fighter whose opponent is close to a TKO because of fight injuries.
• A fighter who has a decent amount of strength and whose opponent always goes (allout) in a particular round.

Who should NOT use this fight modifier:

• A fighter who is trying to maximize the number of punches landed, to win the round primarily by decision.
• A fighter who is trying to maximize the amount of damage done to an opponent.
• A fighter with very little ability points allocated to strength.
• A fighter using very little power energy points in their fight line.

FIGHT PLAN HELP Index

Body Blows

(The B or b Modifier)

Description:
Maximizes the long-term damage (i.e. loss of endurance points) inflicted, but minimizes the chance of scoring a knockdown or knockout.

A fighter may choose to throw punches primarily to their opponent's body in any given round by simply adding the letter B after the aggression energy point allocation number. This means your fighter will specifically target the stomach and chest regions of your opponent in an attempt to make their opponent tired faster and increase the amount of damage done in the rounds that it is used. It can be used in combination with the Fighting Dirty (!) modifier, but not the Head Shots (H) fight style modifier. When no modifier is used in this position your fighter will box opportunistically, throwing a combination of punches, including head shots and body blows.

Example:
3B/12/5 (clinch)

or

3b/12/5 (clinch) 

Advantages:
Throwing Body Blows increases the long-term fight damage to your opponent, which in turn will wear them down faster.

Disadvantages:
By throwing punches primarily to the body, the percentage of your fighter's punches landed is lowered. Also chances of scoring a Knock Down or Knock Out are decreased in the rounds this modifier is used.

Who should use this fight modifier:

• Fighters with med-to-high strength ability points, used in the early rounds of a fight to wear down an opponent for an eventual KO attempt.
• Fighters wishing to maximize the amount of long-term fight damage to an opponent.

Who should NOT use this fight modifier:

• Fighters who have med-to-low speed ability points, and are trying to win rounds by points.
• Fighters wishing to maximize the number of punches landed on their opponents.
• In the round that a fighter wishes to try and Knock Down or Knock Out their opponent.

FIGHT PLAN HELP Index

Damage is factored into round scoring. Every point of damage you give to your opponent in a round is the equivalent of a certain amount of punches landed. Be careful though; not all judges are the same and some will be more impressed with the damage you inflict than others.

FIGHT PLAN HELP Index

When.

Injuries are inflicted on a fighter in the course of a Bout and come in various types. Injuries are measured in injury levels starting at 1 and going up to 4 (4 being the most serious)

Why.

You will usually pick up injuries when punching to the head and having a low defense, this exposes your head to your opponent and a fighter with better strength and remaining endurance will cause significant damage. Punching to the head is best used when your opponent is weakening, or if you feel you have a distinct speed advantage and think you can take the fight very quickly. High Defense and Agility will mean less damage

Effect.

The following details the different kinds of injuries and their effect.

Bleeding above or below an eye:

A bleeding injury is called a minor cut, a cut, a serious cut, or a gash according to the level of the injury. A cut causes a fighter to sustain one point of damage for every level of injury.

A cut over the eye also interferes with a fighter's vision. This causes the fighter to lose points of Speed for every level of injury. In addition, a serious cut over the eye causes the fighter to lose points of Agility, and a gash over the eye causes the fighter to lose further points of Agility.

 

Swelling above an eye.

Swelling always starts at level 1, but every time it is aggravated the level of swelling increases. At level 4 the eye is said to have swollen shut and cannot be swollen further. If both a fighter's eyes are swollen shut the fighter loses by TKO. Swelling can seriously interfere with a fighter's vision. Starting with level 2, each level of swelling causes the fighter to lose points of Speed and Agility.
 

Injured nose.

A level 1 injury is a bloody nose, a level 2 or 3 injury is a fractured nose, and a level 4 injury is a broken nose. For a level 2 or greater injury, the fighter sustains ext damage for each level of injury. At any level, the fighter fatigues an extra 1 point per round to reflect the fact that he cannot breathe properly.

 

Injured jaw.

Level 1, 2, and 3 injuries to the jaw are reported as "bloody lip", "bloody mouth", and "broken tooth", but they have no effect. They are just there for "color." However, a level 4 injury is said to be a broken jaw. A broken jaw is a serious and painful injury -- the fighter immediately sustains a large amount of damage. If this injury is aggravated, the fight is stopped and the injured fighter loses by TKO.

Other Notes.

Changes to SPD and AGL due to injury do not take effect until the following round. Also, no ability is ever reduced below 1.

When an injury is aggravated, there is a 50% chance that it will be "promoted" to a level 2, 3, or 4 injury. Level 1 injuries are promoted to level 2 2/3 of the time an to level 3 2/9 of the time, and to level 4 1/9 of the time. Level 2 injuries are promoted to level 3 2/3 of the time and to level 4 1/3 of the time. Level 3 injuries are promoted to level 4.

When an injury is aggravated, any damage caused by that injury is repeated. For example a level 1 cut, if aggravated, causes one additional point of damage. If promoted to level 2, it would cause 2 additional points of damage.

If an injury is at level 3 or 4 and a total of 7 or more points of damage have been caused by that injury, the fight is stopped by the doctor and the injured fighter loses by TKO. The fight is also stopped by the doctor if the injury is at level 4 and a total of 6 or more points of damage have been caused.

FIGHT PLAN HELP Index

Fighting

The Fighting style is mainly used when you and your opponent may be equal in weight and height, or it is a style to be used when you fight with a slugger against an equal slugger, or if you’re not sure what to do in certain situations. 

Example:

5h/5/10

FIGHT PLAN HELP Index

Inside

Clinch

Clinch is the sluggers favorite fight plan, it causes an opponent's mobility to be decreased as he is being held, it increases the fighters defense as they are up close and harder to hit with solid punches and allows the fighter to use his weight and strength to "lean" on their opposition and wear them down. Powerful sluggers can end a fight in the clinch before having to take any risks. While clinching one point of aggression is lost and considered to be used for resting. While clinching, if a fighter has a defense of 10 or more, they can be penalized for holding and if called up too often can lose a point.
 

Advantages:

If the opponent is weaker then your fighter then 50% of that strength advantage is added to agility.

Disadvantages:

One aggression energy point automatically goes to resting.

Example:

5h/10/5 (clinch)

Results in:

4h/10/5 (clinch) (1 resting)

If your fighter is more agile than opponent then using clinch will have a 50% agility advantage loss.

If taller than your opponent then your height advantage will be halved.

If you use more than 10 energy points while using clinch, your fighter could be penalized for not breaking the clinch.

Example:
4b/8/8 (clinch)

FIGHT PLAN HELP Index

Outside

Counter

Counter Punch should only be used by fast fighters and even then it should not be relied on as a solution to every round of a fight. If opposition see that you always use counter they will start to lower their punch count and up the power in order to reduce your effectiveness.

When using Counter punch it is important to remember that you cannot throw more punches than your opposition, in fact your aggression is lowered a point of aggression below your opponent's (but never below 1).

So if you use:

4/8/8 (counter)

but your opposition uses:

2/8/10

then you will actually fight 1/8/8 (counter) and the 3 other points will be used for resting. Fast sluggers and dancers looking for an offensive option in the late rounds can all benefit from counter attack if it's used well. Using counter attack against a faster opponent is not a wise plan.

Advantages:

If your fighter has greater speed than your opponent then your fighter will have a 25% speed advantage added to his agility as your fighter's opponent will have 25% speed advantage subtracted from his agility.

Disadvantages:

One aggression energy point automatically goes to resting.

Example:

7h/3/10 (counter)

Results in:

6h/3/10 (counter) (1 resting)

If both fighters use counter then both will have aggression energy point go to resting.

If your fighter has less speed than his opponent then he receives a 50% speed disadvantage that is subtracted from his agility.

Example:

5b/10/5 (counter)

FIGHT PLAN HELP Index

Fight Plan Examples

Note: It is important to remember that the fight resolver reads from the bottom up at the beginning of every round when resolving fight plans.

Example 1:

1) 6/6/7 (ring)
2) 7/6/6 (ring)
3) 5/6/9 (ring)
4) 1/1/15 (ring)
5) 5/7/8 (ring)
6) 5/5/10 (ring)
7) 1/1/15 (ring)
8) 1/1/15 (ring)
9) 5/7/8 (ring)
10) 6/4/10 (ring)
11) 2/2/16 (ring)
12) 2/1/17 (ring)

In this example, there are no variables or conditionals but the plan relies on out throwing the opponent while still causing damage.  In the first three rounds the fighter seeks the rounds by decision 1) 6/6/7 (ring), 2) 7/6/6 (ring), 3) 5/6/9 (ring), while still keeping the strength or power of the punches the same.  In the fourth round, the fighter looks to rest as it is presumed he is ahead, or tiring his opponent and looking to gain in the endurance game over his opponent 4) 1/1/15 (ring).  Still looking to retain the lead the next two rounds the fighter throws an average amount of punches, beginning with more power then defending himself more in the sixth round 5) 5/7/8 (ring), 6) 5/5/10 (ring).  Again looking to rest the fighter, the seventh and eighth round are reserved for resting the fighter 7) 1/1/15 (ring), 8) 1/1/15 (ring).  As the last two rounds are mainly a defense of the presumed lead of the non-resting rounds, the fighter looks to extend the decision gap that the fighter may have in the end by insuring the fighter won one or both of the rounds between the ninth and tenth round.  The hard power of the ninth round looks to hit the judges who favor more powerful punches, where the tenth round looks to out score the opponent in punch count 9) 5/7/8 (ring), 10) 6/4/10 (ring).  Between the first and tenth rounds it is presumed that the fighter is leading the fight at most seven rounds to the opponent's three rounds, won when the fighter was resting.  Since this might be the case, the fighter looks to finish the fight heavily defending himself, looking to withstand any allouts his opponent may throw at him and winning the fight with the decision of seven rounds won over the opponents five 11) 2/2/16 (ring), 12) 2/1/17 (ring).  The three rounds resting would give the fighter a probable endurance advantage as the two fighters head into the last two rounds able to withstand any desperate last attempts from his opponent to finish the fight in standing fashion. 
 

Example 2:

1) 4h/10/6 (clinch)

2) if hiscuts > mycuts then 5h/10/5 (inside)

10) if opp=strong and score <=2 and score >=-2 then 8/1/11 (clinch)

2) if opp=hurt then 4h/8/8 (allout)

This would be representative of an FP that would be used with a slugger against a balanced type fighter.  From round one the fighter is throwing low and hard to the head looking for injuries 1) 4h/10/6 (clinch).  If his opponents cuts become greater than his own than he will start throwing a few more punches to the head using the inside fighting style to work on those injuries 2) if hiscuts > mycuts then 5h/10/5 (inside). If his opponent ever becomes hurt or his endurance is about 33% or lower then the fighter will go all out in a calculated fashion looking for the knockout 2) if opp=hurt then 4h/8/8 (allout).  However, beginning in the tenth round, if the opponent never becomes hurt and actually has 66% or more of his endurance left the fighter switches tactics if his corner thinks the fight is between winning by 2 or losing by 2 10) if opp=strong and score <=2 and score >=-2 then 8/1/11 (clinch).  In this case the fighter is looking to win the last few rounds by decision and not looking to cause any more damage, unless his opponent over throws and his opponents endurance drops below 33% in the finishing rounds where the fighter will look for the knockout, throwing caution to the wind with his own left over endurance 2) if opp=hurt then 4h/8/8 (allout).

Example 3:

1) 7/1/12 (outside)

2) if score >=1 then 1/1/14 (ring)

10) if score <=2 then 9/1/10 (outside)

This would be an example of a fight plan for a tall agile weak fighter against a shorter speedy slugger.  The fighter comes out throwing very high and protecting himself looking to win the round in punch counts 1) 7/1/12 (outside).  Beginning in the second round if the fighter is winning by one according to his corner he will come out and rest that round until the next round 2) if score >=1 then 1/1/14 (ring).  As each round progresses, the fight resolver will determine if the corner thinks the fight is a draw or the fighter is losing and will throw 7/1/12 (outside) if he is, or if the corner thinks the fighter is ahead in the score cards by at least 1 then the fighter will come out resting 1/1/14 (ring).  At the beginning of the tenth round, if the corner believes the fighter is only winning by 2 or less the fighter will throw a higher amount of punches to finish the fight for the decision 10) if score <=2 then 9/1/10 (outside).  Resting the fighter is important to maintain the fighter's endurance for the end game of the fight, but it could leave the fighter wide open for all out attacks from his opponent.

Example 4:

1) 10/1/9 (clinch)

2) if score >=1 then 4b/12!/4 (clinch)

2) if score >=1 and warn >=2 then 4b/12/4 (clinch)

2) if opp = tired and score <=1 then 7/7/6 (clinch)

2) if opp = tired and score > 1 then 4h/12/4 (clinch)

2) if opp = hurt then 6h/10/4 (clinch)

In this fight plan, the fighter is looking to brawl and flail at a more agile opponent who may seek to win the fight by decision.  Everything about this particular fight plan is mainly anchored by the first round as the second round holds all the conditions and variables that the fighter will take if any of those statements become true to the fight resolver.  In the first round the fighter comes out throwing very high amount of punches looking to win the round over the more agile or speedy opponent 1) 10/1/9 (clinch).  In the second round, the fight resolver will begin at the bottom and looks for the next correct statement in the fight plan.  Since the opponent wouldn't probably be hurt or tired after the first round of pitter patter punches it would be presumed that the fighter would be ahead by one and hasn't been warned by the referee for any fouls.  So the next true statement for the fight resolver would most likely be the second statement in the fight plan 2) if score >=1 then 4b/12!/4 (clinch).  The fighter would come out in the second round throwing hard to the body and probably throw in a cheap shot to cause some extra damage to his opponent.  If the opponent is still strong, and the referee has warned the fighter two or more times about cheating then the fighter will stop throwing cheap shots and go to simply throwing strong to the body 2) if score >=1 and warn >=2 then 4b/12/4 (clinch).  Notice in the first two lines of the second round also look to see if the fighter is ahead by one according to his corner, if he is not he will come out the next round looking to win the round by decision, reverting back to the first round statement.  The back and forth of looking to win the round and be ahead by one, then going hard to the opponents body, will continue until and if the opponent becomes tired or hurt.  If the opponent becomes hurt and the fighter is leading by one in the fight according to his corner, then the fighter will come out and throw hard to the head looking to cause damage to his opponent while his opponent tries to catch up in the scoring 2) if opp = tired and score > 1 then 4h/12/4 (clinch).  If the score isn't greater than one according to the fighters corner and the opponent is tired, then the fighter will come out throwing very high and hard amount of punches, looking to either win the rounds by decision and or cause damage to his opponent 2) if opp = tired and score <=1 then 7/7/6 (clinch).  This line also looks to defuse the use of the first round statement and throw just a little less but more powerful punches if the opponent becomes tired and the score becomes less than or equal to one.  If the opponent ever becomes hurt then the fighter will revert to the last statement and throw a fair amount of hard punches to the head, looking to add more pressure to his opponent when the opponent is at his weakest 2) if opp = hurt then 6h/10/4 (clinch).  This fight plan looks to confuse a dancer type of opponent while the stronger fighter will look to win the fight by either decision or by knocking out his opponent. 

Example 5:

1) 5h/5/10 (ring)

2) if end <=120*.75 and score >=2 then 1/1/12 (ring)

2) if end >=120*.75 and score <=1 then 9/1/10 (ring)

10) if opp = tired and end >=120*.66 and score >=2 then 5h/10/5 (chase)

10) if opp = tired and end <=120*.66 and score <=1 then 7/1/12 (ring)

12) 5h/5/10 (ring)

12) if score <=1 then 8/1/11 (ring)

12) if opp = hurt and end >=120*.45 and mycuts < 2 then 4h/8/8 (allout)

This fight plan would be representative of one used with a balanced type of fighter who may be facing a slugger or another stronger balanced type fighter, where the fight plan will be gauging the fighter's endurance compared to his opponents.  In the first round the fighter will come out throwing even amount of stinging punches while protecting himself from the stronger opponent 1) 5h/5/10 (ring). From the second to the ninth round the fight plan will be judging the fighter's endurance in relation to what the score is, reverting back to the first round if none of the second round statements are correct.  If the fighter is facing a round where he has more endurance than 75% of his starting endurance of 120 that came from the 12 points of toughness he started with, and the score is equal or less than one according to his corner's scoring of the fight then the fighter will come out throwing very high amount of weak punches looking to win the round by decision 2) if end >=120*.75 and score <=1 then 9/1/10 (ring).  However if the fighter is facing a round where he doesn't have more than 75% of his starting endurance and the score is greater than two according to his corner than the fighter will look to rest that round to preserve his endurance for the finishing rounds 2) if end <=120*.75 and score >=2 then 1/1/12 (ring).  If neither of the second round statements are true; the fighter isn't tired and isn't losing; then the fight plan will revert back to the first round statement 1) 5h/5/10 (ring).  This will continue until the tenth round where conditions of the fight and the fight plan may change the way the fighter fights out the tenth and eleventh rounds.  If when the tenth round comes and the opponent is tired, or at 66% or less of his starting endurance, and the fighter also is tired, and the score is equal or less than one according to the fighter's corner, then the fighter will look to win the tenth and eleventh round by decision, throwing a high amount of weak punches while protecting himself 10) if opp = tired and end <=120*.66 and score <=1 then 7/1/12 (ring).  However if the opponent is tired and the fighter has more than 66% of his starting endurance of 120 and the score is greater than two according to the fighter's corner then the fighter will come out and take advantage of his endurance edge and take the fight to his opponent with an average and powerful amount of punches in the hopes to wear him down further 10) if opp = tired and end >=120*.66 and score >=2 then 5h/10/5 (chase).  If the fighter's opponent is not tired during the tenth or eleventh round then the fight plan will revert back to the second round conditionals, where if the fighter isn't losing or isn't hurt will continue with the first round statement.  Coming to the twelfth and final round, the fight plan uses an anchoring statement so that if neither of the two other twelfth round conditionals are not true to the fight resolver then the fight plan will not look for any of the second or tenth round statements 12) 5h/5/10 (ring).  If the score is less than or equal to one according to the fighter's corner than the fighter will try to win the last round by decision, by throwing a high amount of weak punches while protecting himself 12) if score <=1 then 8/1/11 (ring).  If the fighter's opponent is hurt or 33% or less of his starting endurance and the fighter has more than 45% of his starting endurance and the fighter's cuts are less than 2 then the fighter will look to finish the fight by KO, insuring the victory 12) if opp = hurt and end >=120*.45 and mycuts < 2 then 4h/8/8 (allout).  However, if the fighter's opponent is not hurt and the score is greater than one according to the fighter's corner then the fight resolver will use the next correct statement in the fight plan where the fighter will throw even hard punches while protecting himself well 12) 5h/5/10 (ring).  This fight plan looks to win by KO if the opponent becomes hurt or to try to win the fight by decision, by gauging his endurance compared to his opponents.
