Barbon is the mini-boss of Stage 3, a powerful brawler who uses a flaming uppercut and a charging attack. He's a large, imposing figure who can take a lot of punishment. His flaming uppercut has a wide hitbox and can launch you into the air, leaving you vulnerable. His charge attack is telegraphed but fast, so be ready to dodge. The key to defeating Barbon is to stay out of the direct line of his charge and to punish him after he finishes his uppercut. Use throws to deal consistent damage and to reposition him away from the edges of the platform. If you have any weapons, they can be very effective in stunning him. Don't try to trade blows with him directly, as he hits very hard. Focus on hit-and-run tactics, using quick combos and special moves when you have an opening. Be patient and exploit his recovery frames.
