Rocky Graziano Presents a Century of Great Fights Board Game | BoardGames.com | Your source for everything to do with Board Games

Description

Part of a 5 game series of Rocky Graziano (Boxing), Vince Lombardi (Football), Gil Hodges (Baseball), Rod Gilbert (Hockey), and Oscar Robertson (Basketball).

Historical boxers are grouped into two weight categories (light heavy/heavy and Middle to light) and rated on 8 different punch strategy categories, with 23 cards corresponding to the ratings (3 for each of first 7 strategies but only 2 clinches) plus an endurance rating. Players play hidden cards five times per round and there is a matrix for the interaction of all 23 cards. the die is only used on knockdowns. Because of the much wider variety of ratings, a fairly high difference is achieved for the 50 fighters included. Variations change some of the card interactions to eliminate possible "perfect strategy" which might be available in certain boxer combinations.
