Glory Days Boxing is a board game released in 2019 for 1–2 players, 5–60 minutes per game, and ages 10 and up. It was designed by Anthony Crooks and its main mechanics are Dice Rolling and Simulation.
Accurate and easy to play, Glory Days Boxing brings the excitement of big time boxing to your tabletop using a unique "Ring General" system that ensures the more skilled boxer dictates the action and outcome of the bout. Just like real life, upsets, flash knockdowns and rare events can and do occur to make each bout unique and re-playable. Boxers are rated to produce true to life performance with the majority of results coming directly from the boxer cards. The base printed game includes 100 all-time great heavyweights, five dice (two six-sided, two ten-sided and one twenty-sided), the master game chart, the referee and judge chart, quick play chart and score sheet. Additional fighter sets are available individually, or as part of a full game bundle.
Glory Days Boxing supports 1–2 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Glory Days Boxing is 5–60 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Glory Days Boxing for ages 10 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Glory Days Boxing has a complexity rating of 2.4 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
