Like most 90s fighting games, it bears a strong resemblance to Street Fighter II in terms of both its style of play and its character roster. There are loads of moves to memorize for each playable character and they are executed by pressing certain combinations of buttons in conjunction with other buttons or with the D-Pad. You’ve got all the standard throws, grabs, projectiles, and whatever else you’ve come to expect from the genre. The controls and execution can be difficult to get used to, but it’s nothing downright horrendous. It’s worth noting that there are only three buttons, unlike other fighters at the time that utilised more complex control systems (what with Street Fighter having a different button for three types of kicks and three types of punches). With a roster of only eight characters, it’s not going to set the world on fire, but it allows for some interesting match-ups nonetheless.

Ah, old school fighting games. I remember this one, but like so many of the older fighting games, I would suspect this one just does not hold up real well to current standards. I've never found the PSP to be a great platform for fighting games. I don't like the controls/feel of it most of the time, and as you pointed out, the multiplayer can be a bit tough to get much mileage out of.
