While I'm here, does anybody know how to knock King Hippo's crown off. I can't figure it out!

And for Ryan Aron's (sp?) stars:

Jab while he poses... punch when he attacks from left side... Block after he dives at you from ropes, then jab... What else?! Thanks! =)

For King Hippo, wait until he steps back to do his double-fist move. When he flashes red, hit him with a hook (I don't think it matters which). This usually knocks his crown off, although the timing's a bit tricky.

I don't think countering his double-fist move is enough. You have to counter him when he's about to go down. He'll be knocked back into the ropes, he will lose his crown but regain about half his health. After that you just beat him like you normally do.
