The fist fights are dull indeed, the only extra move you can do is the ground tackle (which is cool, don't think I dislike it), but I'd really have loved to see some more action in it, may be some drunk fighting in saloons, that'd have been cool.

As for the trophy, I never had any problems with it. Just like Tricky898 said it might be smart just to save and come back every time by simply reloading the file :p
