Were you playing the rom or a legitimate port?

I beat him in my local arcade back in the 80s
I was disappointed cause the game just started over again from the beginning- you just have to fight the fat guy again
This game and Legend of Kage were two of my favorites- along with Mat Mania.

Delay your hits. Sounds odd, but instead of tapping the button when he gets near, delay half a second then do it. Works on the Arcade version, but is very hard to time. For some reason its really easy to do this on the GBA version.

I beat him, but only once, and only with a good piece of luck... that delayed-hits thing Rain mentions rings a bell... I remember that there was some sort of cheap tactic to beat most opponents except Blues (or was that "Bleus"?), stick down+kick for a quick low kick, then a few punches, then down+kick, or something like that...
For a long time, the C=64 port was the closest thing to the arcade version and I played it to death... wasn't there some Choi-like big jump move as well?
Anyway, great game. Too bad part 2 sucked a bit.

I used to jump at him with a flying kick and then low kick him to death..You have to be really fast.

split punch!
hit him with split punches (Down-Back+Punch) until he's down to four health points.... and then start doing it again when you're sure you're not going to get backed into the corner, because once he's down to 3 points he goes NUTS.
That's really all I could do, just split punch over and over and hope I get more hits in on him. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't... you gotta be pressing the button pretty fast.
I believe I saw a more reliable strategy in a MAME recording, I'll have to watch it again.
