I think you are looking for Gang Wars.

Here is the gamefaqs review mentions Mike and Jackie near the bottom.

I'm thinking of a beat em up game like that, but it was 4P and the 1P was a retired boxer, 2P was a wrestler, etc. and you could punch guys when they were on the ground.

The boss on the first level had a big circular saw of some sort...
