So I recently watched a couple videos detailing who the biggest rule breakers in the Punch Out! series were based on the real world rules of boxing (Mac, for example, is a year too young to compete and shouldn't be allowed to fight people who are so far above his weight class, which is basically everyone), and it made me pretty nostalgic for the series. After playing through them again, I decided to make this thread to see how many Punch Out! fans we had here and which of the 30 boxers were your favorites, and since there's so many to choose from, let's make it a top 3. My votes go to Super Macho Man, Bear Hugger, and Soda Popinski. Honorable mentions to Disco Kid, Bald Bull, and Great Tiger. |

I've got to give props to Glass Joe. He deserves a lot of love for his tenacity and his theme song is a banger.

I always liked Great Tiger for whatever reason.

Super Macho Man. His Super Spin Punch is totally tough!

Bald Bull because he 100% looks like my dad.

When I was a young kid in 87, Soda Popinski was my first nemesis on there in that he was the first of the opponents I couldn't beat for awhile. So I get a special pleasure out of trouncing him now and none except for Tyson himself and Super Macho Man are challenges any more--Tyson of course is as difficult as always, though have both KOed him and got a decision win. Super Macho Man still gives me issues some to this day cuz it seems like there's always one more cheap tornado rotation that hits you so he probably still wins about 2 out of every three times.
But yeah, Soda.

Pizza Pasta - His name made me laugh when I was little
Super Macho Man - the titty dance
Hoy Quarlow - the only boxer to use an actual weapon when fighting (not counting Masked Muscle's loaded mask, since there's no proof)

I feel weird voting for a guy with this name, but Aran Ryan is hilarious. They took the most boring guy from the series and brough him back as a psychotic murder-punk who cheats for the sheer fun of it.
Mr. Sandman is great for the opposite reason. Just consistently cool.
