The easiest way to obtain this achievement is to set the difficulty to very easy, (Which really isn't). Anyways, Now I chose Spinal and all you have to do is jump in with a weak kick or punch then immediately Hold down and hit RB (Fierce Punch). This will most of the time knock the enemy in the air. From here I jumped at my opponent and as they were starting to get to there feet I held down and hit RB (Fierce Punch). Rinse and repeat. Works well on Gargos too. Sometimes the enemy will block and fight back. I wouldn't worry about it. You can also use this method to obtain the win 20 in a row achievement. Cheap maybe, but my opponent should block.

Strictly speaking, I didn't really have much luck with this method. Most opponents have an anti-air attack to counter the initial jump in attack. Instead, I juggled between this and using Maya's jump in heavy kick (
) into 
+ with some success at first.
In the end, I relegated myself to using Spinal's mid-air dive kick ( + ) while jumping. If you time it at different points during his jump, you can take the AI by surprise, especially when done from a low angle afar. You can even combo it into the + 
uppercut move once it lands. His sliding attack, which is done from the left side of the screen by pressing (
+ ) can also catch the AI by surprise from sweeping distance. It also can by linked into the fierce uppercut attack. By using a mixture of these moves, I never lost to the AI once as Spinal.

I used the Down heavykick while in the air+the down Heavy punch like in this video.
Somehow the AI has some problems reading this move and it works pretty wel even beter then light kick one because it is save on block aswel when at the right distance.

First off there is nothing wrong with the sabrewulf methods mentioned above but I found Maya much easier (not that this achievement is hard)
Simply forward-jump and press RT, then down+RT to kick them in the air, jump forward and hit down+RT again as they are getting up, rinse and repeat.. I got a perfect on every single opponent
Hope this helps :)

I did this last night.
When i saw this achievement on the list I thought this would be really hard especially as I don't rate myself highly on fighting games. but I did this without meaning to as Maya.
I found with Maya it is easy to get strikes against the opponent by jump attacking often pressing B and then pressing down and RT.
This proved a good method against nearly all the opponents. I have also done this today again using a similar method with Orchid.

Passed Spinal the first time.
Strikes used:
RB (double kick)
RT(single)
Sometimes we jump back and immediately forward if the opponent starts to hit with one blow.
It's easiest if you have a 2nd joystick. Every time you think that you are about to lose, then press on the second joystick. You win. When the time is ticking, press to speed up the timer. And try to win the battle again.
