Cylinders 68 onwards are definitely unformatted, so either the game was never mastered properly or coded badly. What a surprise from Tiertex!
Maybe Donald Campbell (programmer) figured the game was so lame that nobody would play it past the first fighter and US Gold never bothered to test it? There's no protection it seems other than a custom disk format.
For those that have forgotten how awful the game is, here's the entire set of animation frames from the first fight. Cringe how your guy rotates in his jump 180 degrees in a single frame...
