Ready 2 Rumble Boxing is a boxing game for the Sega Dreamcast, PlayStation, Game Boy Color, and Nintendo 64. It was released in 1999 by Midway.

The game is reminiscent of Nintendo's Punch Out series in that it features many characters with colorful personalities (i.e. Afro Thunder, Boris "The Bear" Knokimov, etc.). However, unlike the Punch Out series, Ready 2 Rumble Boxing is in 3D and thus allows more control over your character in the ring.

Throughout the fights in the game, you can earn letters by delivering multiple hard punches. Each boxer has a special move (called a "Rumble Flurry") that they unleash when you spell out the word "RUMBLE."

The game was followed by a sequel in 2001 called Ready 2 Rumble Boxing: Round 2, and will be followed by a third game in the series, currently in development.[1]
