This isn't just any gimmicky video game fighter that you're up against like those other chumps. This time, you're fighting a real boxer baby! This music really lets you know that.
Reminds me of back in highschool when the gym teacher threw a ball at me and I swear my adrenaline kicked into overdrive cause everything slowed down and I moved my head around the ball and even heard it whistle past my head.
Not gonna hide it. Mr. Sandman has my favorite opening cutscene in Contender Mode. It starts with him walking towards the ring like the gargantuan he is. Doc Louis looks very nervous, like he's about to wet himself. But, Little Mac just put his fists together and walk forward like "Alright! Let's do this!". It's like he know he's one step away from being the World Circuit Champion and is not afraid of this man and his massively brutal punches. And I respect him for that.
First Time Players: Okay suffered a few losses on my way here but this shouldn't be too challenging now... right? Mr. Sandman: Night night! *causes the first time player to get 20 losses added to their win/loss ratio*
Sandman is the strongest boxer and the moat deadliest. He can break your bones by 1 huge punch. HE CAN DESTROY A BIG BUILDING UNDER A PUNCH SHOWING ALL HIS STRENGTH!!!!!! SHOWING THAT SANDMAN IS NOT FUCKING AROUND WITH MAC ANYMORE!!!!! SANDMAN IS GONNA GO ON THE KILL FOR MAC FROM TAKING HIS TITLE AWAY FROM SANDMAN!!!!! SANDMAN COMES BACK FOR REVENGE TO SHOW HIS TRUE STRENGTH AND ABOUT TO FUCKING KILL LITTLE MAC!!!!! SANDMAN DESTROYED AN ENTIRE BUILDING WITH 1 SINGLE PUNCH!!!!!! SHOWING HIM HE IS NOT FUCKING AROUND ANYMORE!!!!!
