Heavyweight Champ was an arcade game released worldwide in 1976 by Sega, this game was noteworthy for being regarded as the first game in the "fighting" genre. The arcade machine had 2 boxing gloves for each player protruding from it that acted loosely like a joystick. The arcade game itself featured monochrome graphics with two similar looking characters on opposite ends. The joystick-like controllers that would preform a different move depending on what direction the stick was moved. The game was remade in 1987 which proved to be popular, thus overshadowing the original into obscurity. There have been no sightings of a cabinet in public in recent years and currently there is no footage of the game in action online.
