Summary	07312: poundfor: X/Y Axxis don't work properly
Description	X/Y Axxis don't work properly Trackball controls feels very rough and clumsy. In fact they get worse during gameplay ending up not working at all. It takes less than 5 minutes of gameplay to reach this state. No matter you use keyboard, analog stick or mouse. Regression is mame 0.186, in which the controls were modified to fix 00599 ("You can't move the arrows on the menu screens to choose the other boxer or game"). Yes, that issue was fixed, but the gameplay turned nearly unplayable.
Steps To Reproduce	Just compare gameplay in mame 0.185 where it played right (except for moving the arrows on screens using keyboard, 00599) with mame 0.186 gameplay.
