This sport is based on Western Boxing.
Gameplay
Wii Sports
Two opponents face each other in the boxing ring. There are three rounds, each lasting up to three minutes. The player must mimic the movement of punching using the Wii Remote and the Nunchuck, each in one hand. The Mii can hit in places based on where the player swings the controllers. Sometimes, strikes are slowed down for dramatic effect. Players can also dodge by tilting the Wii Remote and Nunchuck, and dodging attacks also slows down the game so that players can quickly strike back.
The boxers' stamina are represented by pie charts broken into 10 pieces. Pieces fade away as the boxers keep hitting each other, with more powerful strikes taking away more pieces. Once a boxer's stamina is depleted, they collapse. The announcer counts up to 10, and if the Mii doesn't wake up before time is up, it counts as a knockout and the standing Mii wins the round.

Trivia
- In this sport, female Miis wear white tank tops while male Miis are shirtless. Their shorts will match their favorite color while the boxing gloves match the player color (P1 is blue while P2/CPU is red).
