2. T.O.
3. Favre (for good)
4. Lance Armstrong (for good)
5. Phil Jackson (most overrated coach ever)

I agree with you, we can create him and it is his right to accept or reject the offer given to him. It is unfortunate because he was in every Fight Night or Knockout Kings game up until round 3 (if I am not mistaken).

I am not surprised by this, some people have different ideas of "fair compensation" the singer PRince also turned down a Guitar Hero game because he felt they were not offering enough money. In his word "I ain't mad at them. I hear it made, like, $2 billion and they came to us and offered us a very small portion of that," so I figure Floyd feels the same. way. I will keep playing and enjoying the game regardless.

You know EA paid Tyson, Muhammad Ali and quite a few other rich boxers to be in the game, right? Tyson and Ali they paid large sums of money.
They(EA) even went out their way to pay for the recent DLC roster boxers. Rocky Marciano, Jack Johnson, and Jack Dempsey trust me didn't object to their families charging large sums for their likeness.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. would bring sells to EA and who actually benefits from this? The fans? No! EA will benefit greatly.

@Agent 007 Um... Phil Jackson has a ring for each finger, both thumbs, and a toe. How is that overrated?

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I've never purchased a game based on the roster.

when it comes to boxing games the roster is one of the main reasons i buy or don't buy a game.
