Knockout Kings 2000 on N64 is one of those boxing games that actually makes you feel like you're in the ring—well, as much as a blocky N64 game can. You start off picking from legends like Ali or Holyfield, and the first thing you notice is how weighty the punches feel. The controls are simple—jab, hook, dodge—but timing matters way more than button mashing.

The graphics were solid for the time, with decent animations when you land a clean uppercut. And the sound? Those glove thuds and crowd reactions still hold up. It’s not perfect—some fighters feel a bit stiff—but there’s something satisfying about working the body shots before going for the knockout. If you’re into old-school sports games, this one’s a hidden gem.
