Boxing Ring (stage)

The Boxing Ring is a stage that appears in both Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. It is set in a stadium with two flat areas on either side and the ring in the center, as well as a jumbotron-like screen and a scrolling LED sign in the background.

The stage is both original in the Super Smash Bros. series and based on the Punch-Out!! series, and its design is randomly chosen each match. The Punch-Out!! version is based on the World Circuit boxing ring from the Punch-Out!! game for Wii, while the Super Smash Bros. version of the the ring is colored blue with the Super Smash Bros. symbol on the platform. In the Nintendo 3DS version, holding while selecting the Boxing Ring manually selects the Super Smash Bros. version of the stage, and holding  selects the Punch-Out!! version.

The ropes surrounding the ring spring fighters up when jumped on, and can be used to reach the lights above the stage. However, if the lights are attacked numerous times, it will fall onto the main ring and damage anyone underneath it.

The Final Destination variant of this theme is set on an elevated boxing ring. The ropes around the ring and the overhead lights are both missing from this version of the stage.

In the Wii U version, the fighters will have a screen name on the jumbotron. For example, if the player uses Little Mac, then his screen name is "Bruiser from the Bronx". Additionally, if a character has a Final Smash in the Wii U version, the scrolling LED sign will say "Chance!" instead of "Punch-Out!!" or "Smash Bros." The same applies for getting a KO, which will say "K.O." on both the sign and the jumbotron.
