This will work in any fight. Constantly Haymaker your opponent. When he is in knockdown mode, Haymaker them one more time to knock them down. Sometimes you can hit them even more when there on their way down. In hard mode do not try to Haymaker frequently, as you will miss a lot and your opponent can hit you harder.
Go to the settings and turn off illegal blows. When fighting, use an illegal blow. It is a lot more effective than a normal punch.

Better ring performance

Pimp out your ring entrances. The more extravagant they are, the more the crowd will like you and the better you will perform.

Fight Night Round 2 Hints (PS2)
Fight Night Round 2 is another installment in the boxing simulation series coming from EA Sports, with the player again asked to take control of a fighter and lead him towards glory or defeat.

Fight tested Moby Games

The new game also allows gamers to take on well-known boxing legends and recreate their most important matches, complete with commentary and historical vignettes. [admark=1]GAMEPLAY HINTS Knockdowns As you progress in just about any weight class, you will notice that some of your top opponents always seem to know where you are going to punch when they are dizzy, therefore blocking your punches and preventing a knockdown. To knock down an opponent who uses this type of defense, wind up your Haymaker and rapidly press L1 about five or six times. Eventually, let the Haymaker go, and you will almost always hit your opponent and knock him down. Avoiding knockouts To avoid a knockout, when your opponent gets close to you, perform a grab. You will then exit knockout mode. Faster first round knockouts Go to the "My Corner" screen, then go to options. Turn on the 3 knock-out rule. Knock your opponent down three times in the first round. Try to do this as fast as possible and beat 59 seconds. You should now have the fastest KO record. Start a new career and go pro immediately. Go to the settings and turn on 3 knockdown (T.K.O.). Fight the rank 49 boxer and constantly Haymaker him. If he starts blocking, do a Haymaker on the other side. Once you are in Knockdown mode you will need one more Haymaker to knock him down. Once he gets back up, it will take about four Haymakers to knock him down again. Try to knock him out in 59 seconds to get the fastest knock out record.
