It seems to be a more recent thing, especially with Matchroom who put the clause in any big fight. There are still plenty examples where there is not one though, Ugas for example clearly doesn’t have a rematch with Spence.
It’s a tough one. I guess the option to negotiate a rematch clause is always there irl so it could be in the game too. What if when you arrange one you make less money on the fight.
Like the idea in theory as long as it doesn’t slow down the process of getting a title shot when you are ranked and waiting for the opportunity this is the boxing politics side of the real sport I wouldn’t want appearing in the game
I’d prefer it to be part of the negotiations. Not automatic. That’s more realistic. In a small number of cases in the game it could be very difficult to negotiate a rematch.
