Funky Head Boxers is a boxing game where the boxers have large, boxed-shaped heads.[4]

Boxers

The game features six boxers from four countries:

  • Billy Johnson, from The United States of America,
  • Kouji Haneda, from Japan,
  • Joseph Davidson, from The United States of America,

Reception

Next Generation reviewed the arcade version of the game, rating it two stars out of five, and stated: "Funky Head Boxers is one bizarro title. It's a decent game but not impressive, especially for what's hyped as a hot, new arcade system."[4]
