Tips[]
- There are a limited number of fistfights available, so make sure to save before trying for this achievement.
- Make sure to make good use of dodging and blocking.
- There is a very consistent, relatively safe way of repricating a no damage fistfight - Nearly every match starts with your opponent trying to quickly punch you as the screen fades in, counter this and immediately after throw 2 light punches and dodge backwards away from your opponent, if you keep at a little over an arms distance, they will try a well telegraphed, wild overhead swing that is very easy to counter, which after you can repeat the process of punching them twice and dodging backwards until the fight is done.
