There's a new video over at Gametrailers which confirms Pernell Whitaker and Thomas Hearns as well as showing Adamek (who isn't in that list) in length as well. http://www.gametrailers.com/player/48847.html

Thought so. I really doubt thats happening. Especially with them being cash starpper. I dont see them finding aqn extra million to pay Floyd or Oscar to be in the game.

Great update to producer Brian Hayes' first breakdown of the game. A closeup of Ali's "dancing feet" at least give the illusion of fluidity. Note Hearn's owning Hatton as he would in real life. Not sure if I buy Roy banging with heavyweights-I mean he only beat Ruiz.

You mean Floyd "Money" Mayweather? The guy who allegedly got $20 Million to wrestle at WrestleMania?

Do the math.

Playing as Iron Mike is enough for me

lol i know right, the way these guys talk you'd think they've been eating filet mignon and lobster everyday.... when in actuality we've been starving for years and EA is offering us Surf n Turf and it seems these guys wanna spit in their face.

Im just happy they're finally about to feed us some good food. lol

I can't understand the complaining about the roster. I'll take Tyson, Hearns, Monzon & Foreman over 90% of FN 3's roster. I'm old school so I would have liked to see Bob Foster in the game but you can't have everything. I hope someone makes a CAB for this guy.

Joe Louis was a great boxer...for his TIME. He had no type of movement nor hand speed. Who else do u want in the game, John L. Sullivan? How about Tommy Burns?

Are u serious fam? Do u know how much the sport of boxing has evolved? Ali would have a field day tagging Louis. Mike Tyson might've killed the man. Did Joe Louis not lose to Max Schmelling in his prime? Would Schmelling have a chance against any great heavyweight of the past 40-50 years? Hell no!

Its not Joe Louis' fault he fought during the 1930s-40s, but judging by his fighting style, what makes u think he would be competitive? WOuld u even want to be him in a video game? He would have no agility whatsoever.

Will we be able to share created boxers?

This is a great question, I would hope there is something like the locker in NCAA or the roster vault of the show.

Depends on what you like. I'm not that excited about Tyson. I honestly would have taken 5 current fighters not in the game over Tyson. EA probably could have signed those fighters for the price they signed Tyson.

I understand why the signed him (marketing, buyer demand) but im not going to praise EA because they gave us Tyson and a subpar current boxer lineup.

Joe was as technically sound as it gets, plus he had great power in either hand. Even higher praise from Freddie Roach:
"Joe Louis was the best textbook fighter ever. He was a classic boxer."

Yeah, so why fight a created boxer online?

# 38 fistofrage @ 05/06/09 01:07 PM

Any word on name recognition for created boxers?

All of that "classic boxer" stuff don't mean squat. Here's a list of fighters who would have no trouble with Joe Louis:

Muhammad Ali
Mike Tyson
Lennox Lewis
George Foreman
Sonny Liston
Joe Frazier
Riddick Bowe
Evander Holyfield
Larry Holmes (as much as I hate to say it)

Even the Klitskho (sp) brothers would beat Louis.

I know Rocky Marciano beat Joe Louis, but he was mad old when they fought. Joe could possibly beat Marciano in his prime, but Joe had a suspect chin, and he did get floored by Max Schmelling, who is nowhere near the fighter Marciano was.

Edit: Marciano was only fighting at 184 when he fought Louis. Joe also got very lucky when he beat Billy Conn (who fought at 174 in that fight).

AND...Louis could KO ANY of these:

Muhammad Ali
Mike Tyson
Lennox Lewis
George Foreman
Sonny Liston
Joe Frazier
Riddick Bowe
Evander Holyfield
Larry Holmes (as much as I hate to say it)

Louis had TREMENDOUS power w/ either hand...PLUS he was the BEST combination technician EVVVER! you take those ingredients, put them behind a 6' 1 218 lb frame...ANY of the a fore mentioned fighters are goin' DOWN...next question...
