I’ve been following this game extremely closely and I’ve even discovered some leaked fighters. I haven’t discovered ali, but based on what I know, I think he’s in the game. I’m fairly confident.

For the major fighter announcement; It has to be someone truly iconic. I don’t think someone like Errol Spence would warrant his own reveal over guys like Crawford, Roy Jones, Loma, etc.

So for me, it comes down to a very short list of possible fighters:

Ali
Tyson
Mayweather
Canelo

If I had to guess, I’m going to say Ali gets announced.

I even hesitate to put Canelo in that group. But I know he’s super popular right now, beyond everyone else

oh I'm not at all, should have quoted someone - I was guessing at possible super star reveal option.

The roster is already amazing no doubt, but for me I'll go with gameplay 1st always. If it's fun and true to the sport I'll play it regularly even if there were no real world boxers. The roster is the cherry on top for me - in fact official athletes are usually not 100% maximized for their inclusion. Most games should allow you to use them in a career mode and 'be' them. Like redo SRR's career in today's era. Speaking of that I wonder if they'll have short length? I can't remember which fight night or if it was another game, but seeing legends from the 70s and 80s (or earlier) in super baggy 90s style Chris webber shorts was always funny to me lol

I agree with this, the roster is great but I really, really hope we can use them in career mode. Not to get off topic but a dream mode for me would be Be A Promoter mode where you can play/develop multiple boxers. You could also sign/release boxers during the career mode if you wanted to, with the emphasis of building your own brand. I'm not an expert in how promoters operate exactly but something along those lines sounds fun to me.

Yeah out all of them Canelo seems the most likely.
