    Serious boxing action that isn't spoilt by silly effects. Don King's Boxing is a great option. [Apr 2009, p.68]

    We have to applaud 2K’s initiative to offer a solid boxing alterrnative on the Wii. While Don King’s Prizefighter on the Xbox 360 was not the game many boxing fans expected it to be, the Wii version is certainly more fun than that boxing game found in Wii Sports and certainly more efficient than Ready 2 Rumble Revolution and Facebreaker.

    Don King Boxing is not a bad game, but it’s not nearly as good as it could have been.

    It is unsatisfactory, frustrating and tiring, in any sense of the word. If you think this genre has still a gap in Wii’s catalogue, then Don King Boxing doesn’t really change anything.
