I am a huge fan this has quickly became my favorite game by far! I am already in the year 2037 for an idea of how much I play! My combined record is 3775-404-34? (2969) in 4213 total matches! With the #3 Hall of Fame fighter who was 19-5 in Championship matches as it was still early and I feel with more experience I could have made the #1all time hall of famer! With 55 regional Championships, and about 17-23 solid fringe contenders who challenged for a championship at least once! The combined record of my 20 guys 4 of which are in the USA, 2in the UK, 2 in Mexico, with 3 or 4 in the Continent of Africa, with a Canada, Germany, Hungry, Norway, one or two other I am not thinking of but I made one in Cuba a country with an amazing history of great amateur boxing and so far I have a couple young ok prospects with both being 5-0 at this point! My heavyweight is 22 or 23 at 5-0 (5) with a bronze medal in the world championships! In real life Cuban boxers dominate the amateur boxing world as we all know and this game doesn’t accurately show this at all as they get way more medals than the USA team does for years now! American’s make better pro’s in my opinion part of that is the Cuban’s have 250-500 amateur fighter as this was their career unless they defected! You have fighters from Hungry way better then the Cuban fighter and yes some good fighters do come out of Hungry! I hope you correct this and make it so now that Cuba has opened up their are some better fighters coming out of the area! Thanks and again the game is amazing!
Hi Adam
Thanks for this and the other contributions to the forum so far!
We’ve come a long way in the game and as ever we attempt to balance realism and fun.
Agree that the balance on amateurs isn’t quite perfect yet.
More to come on that once we’ve finishing this round of releases and getting the quality of the game to where we and players want it.
Oh, I agree you are doing an amazing job, and nobody has any room to criticize you at this I just thought it would be so much fun for guy’s like the great Cuban heavyweights getting a change in the pro game like Felix Savon, Teofilo Stevenson. Loirze Pero, Frank Sanchez, and a fighter who I was the chief sparing partner for not that it did any good the great Edison Lara who is a class act! I went 6-8 rounds three times a week with Delray “Rainmaker” Rains all for no pay just to improve as I had been of for 5 years before I returned and had it very easy at first as I was boxing guy’s who were not in the game every day as we were! I was only payed $500 each for my first five matches although they only went eight rounds! I can’t think of it of the top of my head but the guy Lamoux who lost to Lara but knocked out Raines in two was a guy who came off as a real jerk!
Ha!
We don’t mind the constructive criticism. 
Christ it gets us to where we want to be, however, pain it is.
That is some cool experience there.
It’s experience from the real world that we value. I’ve read boxing books my entire life and lots/most of that goes into the game but the more direct stuff we put in the game or try to the better.
Thanks
Well you know Cuban boxers are historically known to struggle at the top pro level not because they are not good enough but because they have 500 amateur fights of 3 or I had 3 4 2 rounds and it was the ABF’s which leads into the Olympics they were trying it out in 2000! I loved I got a KO with 20 to 30 seconds left because I caught him with my left hook and soon as I wrote before I was getting a shot at a international fight even though we trained in the same gym for a while in west Phoenix he was born in Mexico and was fighting for Mexico it was good experience and I won my first regional fight so I was a fight away from a top 10 rank at just over 20 fights! When I was really barely a top 50 fighter at that point but one with a huge left hook that put people on their faces if it landed right! With more Cuban becoming pro’s there is less of the focus when they are young on three rounds. It is real when I turned pro way late my manager only wanted me doing four round on each bag with 4 shadow boxing because he was a small time promoter who used to have a lot of fights and I was going to run through his guys he only had one who was a little bigger than who was better and he had like 30 pro fights. I ran through a few but I was never getting fights so I just left looking back I should have put some of my own money in on it because I only had one outside inventory because I was already 27! Knocking out guys who have never been in a ring and should not even be call an amateur is how the world has so many unbeaten fighters!
