Election Year Knockout - All Campaign Circuit Bosses

Election Year Knockout totally flew under my radar in 2020, but it's an awesome punch-out game! The controls are surprisingly tight and there's tons of politicians to beat the hell out of lol. This is the first circuit of fighters you have to defeat to try to win the presidency...
Election Year Knockout
All Bosses
Jeb Bush
Joe Biden
AOC
Ted Cruz
Dan Crenshaw
Elizabeth Warren
Bernie Sanders
Mike Pence
Kim Jong Un
Justin Trudeau
Vladamir Putin
Donald Trump

I’m seeing a lot of Punch Out references in this game.
1. Jab Bush is like Glass Joe being so weak. Same for Team Bear 🐻
2. Trump gets KO’ed like King Hippo 🦛 being punched in the face and flopping back out of the ring.
3. Birdie Sanders is like Bear Hugger because he as an animal partner (the bird) as the accomplice.
4. Team Bear is like Bear Hugger and Von Kaiser cause they obviously have a bear 🐻 and he is stronger then Jab Bush but still weak.
5. Joe Biden is like Soda Popinski and Aran Ryan cause he wears the same outfit as Soda Popinski and at one moment he delivers one last effort blow like Aran Ryan.
6. A-oh is like Don Flamenco and Disco Kid cause she has the moves and she looks like she’s from Spain.
7. Pious is like Great Tiger because he’s floating and he has magic.
8. Captain Cransaw is like Aran Ryan and some of the Super Punch Out contenders because he brings two weapons into the ring. Cheater. 👎🏻☝️
8. Bruz is like Great Tiger and Mr Sandman because he sleeps at the end when he’s defeated.
9. Kim Jon Boom is like Donkey Kong because he makes an unordinary entrance.
and finally
10. Turbeau Prime is like Piston Honda because he loves to meditate once in a while.
Those are all the punch out ever since I see here. Talk about a recreation of the classics.

So now the question is - who has the most boxing rule violations?

[@EnigmaMystere]

I don’t know, but bringing a cannon seems like it’s breaking at least one.

[@cybershoutmon9741]

Bush and biden are both over the legal age limit for the WBA’s rule book, for seperate infractions between these two, bush is wearing his glasses, which he cant do, he has to wear contact lenses, so that when he gets punched in the face bits of his eyeware doesn’t carve his face. He is also wearing a shirt which isnt allowed.
For biden: he is in a leotard, which is illegal in a boxing match, as the dress code states it needs loose fitting trunks that shows clear demarkation between the legs and torso, as to discourage low blows, what biden was wearing could be legal in a wrestling match, but not boxing. Which i think is because of his dementia, he forgets what combat sport he’s playing.
Bush infractions: 2
Biden infractions: 3

[@cybershoutmon9741]

For AOC… for the most part she’s playing the same game as you are. However there is one infraction that would be pretty obvious… she’s in a men’s boxing league. And she is dancing during her match… its not illegal, but it does look dumb as hell. So i guess other than being in the incorrect league, she’s completely fine with just one infraction
AOC Infractions: 1

[@cybershoutmon9741]

For ted bruise… he’s looks to be too old for a match. But most of the boxers are past the age limit so its blazè at this point. As for his actual infractions…. This guy is fucking weird. But lets start off easy with the dress code. Bruise is wearing a full suit no tie, you can’t do that. He also is using magic, with creating boxing gloves for a headbutt, which is illegal, then there’s the scorpion tail, which was used for the intent on stabbing you with it, this guy was thinking about killing you!

[@cybershoutmon9741]

Then he’s got great tiger’s clones, what in god’s name was that guy snorting to get those powers?!
