After playing Wii boxing over the christmas holiday with family i realized that the controls were not near as accurate as say bowling. I found this video, that I thought made my point well. Be sure to read the little article below it...you'll laugh.
CHECK OUT THE VIDEO HERE
Oh yeah I was pwned by my wife the first time we played....
We haven't played again.
I got owned by someone that is 8 years old. They just went crazy as they could and didn't really look at the t.v. However, since I've read up on how to use the controlls better from somewhere I can totally own her in about 20 seconds and she never gets up after the first knockdown. Yes, I know I'm bragging about beating an eight year old girl but she was undefeated and had destroyed over ten different people that played her. LMAO at myself for this post but it's the truth.
Ohhhh Mana....whats the secret?
It's crazy to say boxing is crap because some kid who didn't know how to play beat some adult who didn't know how to play. Neither one blocks or dodges the whole game. The little kid just had slightly better timing in her punches.
Try to get above 1500 Pro points in boxing and tell me the controls are crap. That's about the time I figured out how important footwork is in the game.

Not exactly a secret. Just an easier way to use the controls. I found it on another site in the past but can't remember exactly where I saw it.

I think your kind of missing the point. I watched my niece who is in 2nd grade beat a bunch of adult cause she was doing the Charlie Brown Christmas move...(moving her arms up and down).
To be quite honest...if your getting a Pro rating on the game it isn't because your uppercuts or jabs are being registered as they should be on the Wii, but you've found out that playing it like a kid is the way to win. I'd rather be bowling 
What are you talking about? Boxing is great. Don't discredit it because you haven't figure it out yet! If you know what you're doing, you can put someone (even a pro computer opponent) on the canvas in a matter of a few punches.
Tennis and golf are obviously the two best one.
I'm not to sure about this, but do girl Miis have an advantage in bowling? Because whenever my cousins use the boy Miis I win, but when she used a girl Mii, she beat the crap out of me, all I could do was weave left and right waiting for the timer...

I'd love to have all of you "Wii Boxing in the greatest ever" people over and see how you win at the game. Do you actually using boxing moves or flail your arms like doing a windmill. I can play the game on my own, and my own reactions are not being translated. Remember though, the source material is not mine...I'm just one person who happens to agree

I happen to like boxing alot. Yes so the controls aren't the best, It is still very playable once you get used to it. I use boxing moves BTW.
That dude stood there like a fool. Your supposed to lean forward/backward/side to side and keep your hands up.. LAME.
Boxing is great and you can work up a sweat doing it, which is cool for a video game IMO. Should help out with all these fatass kids today. WERD

Golf..? HAHAHAHAHA!
I love golf...
Anyway, for boxing,
1} Do the training.
2) Get your Mii to pro status.
3) Rematch.
That's what I did with my little sister. She came over Christmas day and whooped me. Then I trained a while and whooped her. Easily.
I can't stand golf. I thought I'd like it but just didn't once I tried it out. I still have hope for Super Swing Golf however.
I use boxing moves. No way I flail...I'd get tired too fast! lol You sort of need to "fine-tune" how you move to get it right, but that's no different than finding the right line up for bowling.
I see... I'm pretty good in it maybe thats why I like it? Putting gets on my nerves sometimes, also sometimes the swing doesn't register, or registers at the wrong time which can get annoying. All of the Wii Sports games just need a little studying.
I noticed alot of guys were upset about the boxing game....test of ones manhood right? LMAO cmon kids its a game! Its the equivalent of button mashing! Flail like a girl!

Golf...

Boxing is great fun, yes, the controls aren't great but once you get into it with a mate or with a computer player and your sweat starts pumping it's great fun.
What's great with boxing if u have two controllers, you make a mii of someone you dont like (eg. my friends and i saw the eragon movie and made a mii of the idiot main character who couldnt act) and then you simply put the other controller down and bash the s**t out of them, it sounds inhumane but there was this strange satisfaction in getting a knockout on that idiot after uppercutting him in the rattlers...
i like bowling but i find that i always put spin on it so the ball always goes to the left, I counter it by moving to the right but it still annoys me
I think they're all really fun; Nintendo made them for a diverse group of people with different tastes. If it didn't work for me, I would jump around and wave the controllers wildly until I got a KO.
