The Amazing Digital Fight Club (also known as the Boxer AU) is a The Amazing Digital Circus Fan Verse created by burrotello, which is boxing-themed instead of circus-themed.

Much like in the original series, the story centers around people who get trapped within a video game. However, in order to get out of there, they need to fight in a boxing championship and get to the highest ranks. In an interesting twist, though, some people may choose to stay, mostly because of money and fame.

The AU doesn't have a narrative yet, but its info. can be seen in burrotello's Tumblr and Twitter pages.


"Let's not waste any time; LEEEEEEET'SSS GET READY TO RUMBLEEEEEEE!!!":

  • Action Girl: Pomni, Gangle and Ragatha, the latter even having various bandages on her body.
  • Adaptational Badass: Naturally, in this AU, the trapped humans here are all boxing fighters rather than just circus members who, at most, were seen carrying weapons (Jax and Kinger) in canon rather than having actual combat experience.
  • Adaptation Name Change:
    • Jax here is named "Jackrabbit" or "Jack" (his info. card does call him "Jax", though in a more irrelevant manner).
    • Princess Loolilalu is named "Lila" and Gummigoo is called "Migo", both of which are nicknames.
  • Adaptation Dye-Job: Pomni here has dark hair instead of brown.
  • Adaptational Jerkass: Kinger aka “Kingpin.” In canon, he’s a nice guy, albeit off his rocker from being in the circus longer than anyone. Here? More stuck up and out for himself and for the money.
  • Adaptation Relationship Overhaul: Loolilalu and Gummigoo are enemies thanks to Caine programming them that way. Here, Lila and Migo actually get along pretty okay.
  • Anthropomorphic Shift:
    • The Gloink Queen went from a slug-like, two-mouthed... thing into an anthropomorphic robust eel-looking lady.
    • Slightly averted with Gangle. In canon, she’s humanoid but here she’s a lot more bestial.
  • Ascended Extra: The Gloink Queen, who's just the Monster of the Week in the original series' pilot, is more relevant in this AU, being Zooble's brutal manager.
  • Big Bad: Jackrabbit is the antagonistic grand champion Pomni needs to beat in order to achieve her goal, though it's heavily implied that there's someone else behind him.
  • The Big Guy: Zooble here is a hulking amalgamation brawler who's second on the leaderboard in the championship and has the highest number in the strength stat, but the lowest in agility.
  • Canon Immigrant:
    • Able is a fan character created by sm-baby, but he's featured in this AU regardless.
    • Queenie. A popular fan theory is that there used to be a “Queener” alongside Kinger in the circus. Here, she’s Kinger’s manager and sort of spouse.
  • Color-Coded Characters: Pomni, much like in canon, is characterized by the colors red and blue, as seen not only by her eyes, but also in her gloves and handbands.
  • Evil Overlooker: On the cover poster, Jackrabbit can be seen looming ominously over everyone in the background.
  • Fan Music: There are some fan songs made by Dandy and Desolo Zantas, mostly centered around the video game aesthetic.
  • Fighting Game: The Digital Circus itself is reimagined as one: the Amazing Digital Fight Club.
  • Gold Tooth of Wealth: Caine, Pomni's greedy manager, has a gold tooth here, along with his companion Bubble.
  • Hated by All: Jackrabbit, much like canon Jax, is practically despised by almost everyone, if not seen neutrality at best. Only Able flat out admits to liking him.
  • Mighty Glacier: Zooble has the highest number in strength, but the lowest in agility.
  • Nice Girl: Lila is easily the most loving person in the cast. Even Jackrabbit is only disliked by her, which is a better opinion than what most have of him.
  • Non-Human Head: Able has a hand of playing cards for a head. Same goes with his brother Caine and his denture head, obviously.
  • One Stat to Rule Them All: Each brawler, save for Ragatha, has 10 (the highest number) in different stats: Pomni and Kinger have 10 in dexterity, Gangle and Jackrabbit have 10 in agility, and Zooble has 10 in strength.
  • Suspiciously Specific Denial: Jackrabbit's bio assures us that he's definitely not interested in leaving — he's just curious about what comes after the championship is all!
  • Three-Stat System: There's technically four (with HP), but there's three stats which define the three brawler types: agility, dexterity and strength, as seen in the info. cards.
