Boxing Star X’s stamina system is divided into DP and HP. To secure victory, you must strategically manage both DP and HP.

1. **Damage Points (DP)**

   * DP is the bright red section of the top gauge bar.
   * When your DP hits 0, your character will be knocked down.

2. **Health Points (HP)**

   * HP is the darker red section of the top gauge bar.&#x20;
   * Think of it as your total health. If your HP reaches 0, it’s a clean K.O., and you’ll lose the match.

3. **Differences**

   * Taking damage reduces both HP and DP, but HP decreases more slowly than DP.
   * During a knockdown, HP drops rapidly.

4. **Recovering from Knockdowns**
   * When knocked down, use button clicks or gold to recover.
   * Fail to get back up in time, and your gauge will be fully depleted, resulting in a K.O.
