wow, I love the style :) Im used to draw with outlines, but this is really nice! The pose is nice and so on, reminds me of Kenneth Fejers art!

Only thing that caught my eye is some of the lightsources and some shadows.
If the light strucks down at the glove where the light is put. Then it should look more like this.
even if its not, his back is way to bright for it. Also, he looks a bit flat atm.

I can't read if this is supposed to be from the side or a bit from above, so I just made it as I read it.
If it is supposed to be from the side, I will make another edit for you :) cos then there are some things that are not right
Other then that! nice piece of art

rough edit:

I had to add some colours to prevent the flat effect. Hope it helps :)

I think you're misinterpreting the light source. It seems to be in front and on the top left. Not top right like you placed it.

adding colors ruins it, the "flat effect" is working for the piece (also: Punch Out-style)

As cure said The "Punch-out" style is very flat style, with very few colors, I actually mimic the lightsource from one of the sprites of the game as well as the pose. so if it looks a little weird blame it on them xP. Anyways Thank you all for the interest.
