Punch Out!! - The Secret Fighter, and Ending 

Here are my head cannons for a "Where are they now" for each contender: Glass Joe, being more a man of the mind than the body, pursued an art career, doing abstract and elaborate art pieces. On rainy days, Joe gets really bad migraines, which his doctor attributes to his boxing career, obviously. Von Kaiser returned to the army and became the commander for a junior cadet boot camp. He doesn't like it if anyone asks about his old boxing gloves. Disco Kid opened a throwback style dance and self defence club. He may not wear those gloves anymore, but he still wears the skin tight purple leotard. King Hippo decided that he should slim down his embarrassing weakness, and is doing well with his new "6 meals a day" diet plan. Rumours even went around on how he started a Smoothie brand and start learning English. Piston Hondo opened a dojo, focusing on strict and swift training. The Hondo Rush is a now infamously popular move amongst his students, though none have mastered it yet. Bear Hugger and his coach banded together enough buddies to make an official hockey team. Fans of the sport argue that having a team of grizzly bears and one very large man is cheating, but there's no rule against it in the books, so they just have to deal with it. Great Tiger actually hasn't been seen since his match against the champion. He just vanished from the stage. Friends and family have assured fans that he is okay, but he wishes to recover from the head trauma in peace. Don Flamenco has been attending anger management classes and reigniting his lost flame. Carmen has made no comment on these claims, but evidence suggests she has moved on. Aran Ryan spent six months in a hospital from injuries due to being, as the doctor put it "tangled in ways no human should be able to tangle." Since his recovery, he has started a comedy show where he plays practical jokes on unsuspecting passers-by. It's an ok show. Soda Popinski unfortunately lost his status in the WVBA when word got out about the experimental super soda he had been drinking. He now only competes in local tournaments, and has since went back to regular soda for his health. Bald Bull has decided to stick to barehanded bull wrestling, as suggested by Don, who has yet to return to the sport. Bull has a win streak of 78 knockouts, and plans to keep it climbing until he retires. Super Macho Man was last seen crying alone in his mansion. Any attempts to contact him for quotes have been fruitless, he simply doesn't want to talk about it. Mr. Sandman started a mattress company inspired by his catchphrase, "Dreamland." The store received moderate success due to his habit of using empty buildings as stress relievers / punching bags for his anger Donkey Kong flew back to his home on Kong Island, and compliments the champion in a signed letter to him, saying he has 'never met a kid who can kick tail like [the champion.]' Little Mac held his title as the undefeatable champion of the world for his whole career. Twenty years passed, and not one could dethrone the true underdog of the WVBA. After his twenty years in the ring, he retired from boxing and wrote an autobiography about his career in the WVBA (even thanking Doc Louis for his achievements).

This ending warms my heart because this proves how good of a trainer Doc Louis really was

4:47 was just amazing

The ending is sad, but at least Mac went on to fight in Smash.

“Good job son, good job.” The final lines of the Punch-Out series

They make it seem like Mac died in the ending. I was kind of confused but when I finished the game it made a lot of sense.

6:11 gives me chills in someway

And so, Little mac left the ring Later that year doc Louis died from diabetes from eating 10 chocolate bars a day

I gotta say, nintendo did a pretty good job with this game. Nice playthrough, hopefully they make another punch out

“And so, Little Mac has left the ring. The next day, he entered the Super Smash Bros Battlefield.”

I think at dk's fight when mac *lose* And dk literally *kidnaps* little mac bringing him to *Super Smash Bros.*

I think there should be a Punch out on the Nintendo Switch, it would be perfect for the game system

Every professional Smash Player: Little Mac, you’re garbage. They should have never added you. DK, Doc Louis, the ENTIRE Storyline of Punch-Out!!!: *excuse me*

It does make it feel like little Mac is dead, with the sad music, and the way doc says “good job.” I understand it’s still meant to be sad (I think) because it’s like doc has no purpose anymore.

Little Mac retired to join SMASH

I haven’t even played this game, but the ending always gets me close to tears and I don’t know why

*Good job son* *Good job*

Doc lowkey looks like Cleveland Brown

The ending is sad

I love how little Mac is just like, “I am ok with this”

The ending so sad I bet that’s the reason why there not making another punch out

It's not really a sad ending, it's more bittersweet. Little Mac didn't die, he's just moving on in life, having left his mark on boxing, that strength can come in any size.

He finally became the champion he always wanted to be.

This is a amazing game I want a new punch out so badly

How he do that?! 4:04

3:53 Oh these are pretty cool bananas

I want a prequel where u play as Doc. or a sequel where u fight Mike Tyson or play as Mike Tyson.... and if u do play as Mike Tyson, u gotta fight Mr Sandman OR a new champion.... maybe King Coma or some stupid name XD

What a good ending,Mac defeats his opponents completely (only took 2 matches for each one) and he is remembered for his championship in a museum,and doc goes to visit. But this ending is also connected to a different route! To also get this ending differently,you gotta do the last stand thing,and lose 3 times,then this ending comes again,called the “loss route” but this video is called the “championship route” where little Mac beats all his opponents and goes down in history as the greatest boxer in the MVBA

6:02 MAC HAD A MUSEUM!?!?!?

The ending is the saddest I’ve ever scene, fight me.

5:21 DK NOOO!

1:17 we not gonna talk about how Mac actually went through DK attack😂😂suppose to get hit but hey take it👏🏾👏🏾😂

Do you guys realize what this means? If DK is in the same universe as Little Mac, that means that he shares a universe with Mario!

the fact that you only got one chance to understand donkey kong's movement and attack pattern in one round IS ROUGH since you dont get a second chance unless you wanna play the whole match again

Girl 1: I can't believe he didn't cry during Titanic Girl 2: do men even have feelings? Boys: 6:01

The ending is where we all went "wah" and I wasn't even present in the game!

Me: *wins the lottery* My dad coming home with the milk: 6:11

So much better than Mike Tyson.

Good job son Good job...... That hit hard

5:52 is the part your looking for

Yo wait. Donkey kongs punch is equal to 8 teratons of tnt, and seeing mac not dying from those punches...he might be immortal

The fighting style kinda looks like Mad Clown in Super Punch out

Las Pibas: Los hombres no conocen el sufrimiento Los Pibes: 6:00

THE ENDING MAKE'S ME CRY

Top 10 greatest anime endings

Everyone is saying about the ending and things, while here I am predicting in future Punch Out game, we will have to fight Little Mac as the final boss

The ending always gets me crying ;-; so depressing

Docs like "Man, I wish they didn't take my bike."

Wait. You can win the fight?

Would you sacrifice your best student for a Chocobar: Anyone: Oh Hell No!!!! Doc Louis: 6:01

Idk but when dk comes down the ladder, i keep thinking he says “donkey punch!”

Remember Donkey kong punched the moon out of its orbit without sustaining any damage. Looking at the size of the moon, it would take a punch of 8 teraton to do something like that. The fact that little mac can take hits from DK just shows how durable little mac is. *Maybe he should be a top tier in smash*

I think if you get ko’d 100 times, you’ll get a head protector or something

Headcannon:if the final match you lose to is donkey kong mac dies

We aren’t asking for a new punch out (though a Rocky 4 type story would be cool where he has to come out of retirement and everyone changed they’re moves and you are rusty is cool) but at least a remaster for the switch

6:10 I'm not crying, I'm just allergic to chocolate😭

1:15 waiiit WHAT?!?! HOW DID YOU DO THAT?

Little Mac retired at 17 while Von Kaiser was 42

Little Mac came to fight doc Louis and ruled the world

4:16 My man dodged left and lived

6:01 is so sad

Doc makes a good question. HOW DID a gorilla learn how to tie a tie?

0:07 Little Mac Vs Donkey Kong

Little Mac retires Gabby Jay shocks the world by winning the WVBA heavyweight championship

The ending made me cry a little not even gonna lie

Donkey kong isn’t even trying... he does more dancing than punching

5:59 this ending its beautiful and very sad when little mac left the ring

The music in the ending is a piano rendition of the original game's game over music.

Tremendo.

If donkey kong won it should play the dk rap

Mike Tyson looks harrier than I remember

He left the ring a champion, to go for universal opponents.

Tbh it would have been better if the final boss was frankie fast hands

Did DK just lick his punching glove 6-7 times?!

And then Mac was never seen again. CUT CUT

“Good job son, good job” **chocolate**

Little did doc know him and little mac would go and fine in the Smash bros tournament, where the fighters make donkey Kong in this game look like a chimpanzee.

Doc Louis: little mac hope you have fun in super smash bros ultimate

6:03

Remember when punch out games used to be hard to beat

Why does DK sound like an old man gasping for air

As I watch this video, I get an ad for a business called Joes Glass Co. No joke. Glass Joe made a glass company I guess.

Did they really had to make such a sad ending? He went TO SMASH 4! AND DOC WAS THERE TOO! couldn't they just put Mac following Doc Louis instead of inserting music that sounds like Mac died?

*DK rap intensifies*

If there is another one I hope the game continues from the ending cutscene of this game and it’s says the legend has returned or something and Mac (now an adult) meets back up with Doc Lois and then he starts boxing again or something

little mac would literally get ripped in half if he angered donkey kong.

and so little mac left the ring and went to fight smash forever

People are saying he retired for smash. I think he wants to fight new box since they all came from punch out. And if we get a new game we could get a mode where in a second time line he didn’t retire?

Mario if this was the arcade Mario

Dk wasnt shown here at the credits

This used to make me cry as a kid ( donkey kongs bitch ass and the sad ending)

Imo the canon ending of this game is that you lose dk on the third row of title defense and he abducts little mac and he takes him to smash bros

I wonder who did Little Mac lose to, in his 3 losses.

I got a theory what if little mac lost the fight with DK so then DK takes Mac in smash bros.

6:01 the ending

So did mac go on to be a famous boxer that never sees Doc anymore or what?

Punch out 2 in Switch please :-:

The pride of the Bronx

I hope nintendo can adda new punch out in the future

Beating on both Donkey Kong and Doc makes me very sad.
