About the Prizefighters melee weapon in COD Mobile: An overview

Prizefighters are a pair of boxing gloves that players will be able to equip in their secondary slot for loadouts once they have unlocked it in COD Mobile.

Similar to any melee weapon, these gloves also kill with a single hit. They deal a damage of 200 per shot and have a fire rate of 10, which is considered pretty high for a melee weapon.

The best part of the Prizefighters is the accuracy of the weapon. Since it is equipped on both hands of the character, with each shot, there is a follow-up shot on the enemy. Therefore, if players miss one shot, the follow-up can still kill the enemy.

It is a secondary weapon, however, and if players choose to use its one-shot potential and rush with it, they will easily become victims to hardscopers and corner campers.
