Accuracy should be a new rating for boxers in Fight Night!

[Vast]

I believe accuracy should be a new rating in Fight NIght 4. You could be the strongest fastest guy in the world but if you can't land a punch you can't win. This should be reflected in game.
The same way quarterbacks need accuracy to hit their receivers, boxers need accuracy to land. i THINK this will be the best way to show your boxer improving through your career. His power & speed should remain relatively consistent throughout your career since its usually god given. but your accuracy and confidence makes your boxer more dangerous as you climb through the ranks. Defense is also something that can be improved during your career.

Lets talk about this a little differently. I would rather this issue be based on when and where you punch. Most boxers are accurate when standing flat foot and squared but power and accurace are diminished when moving, or throwing wildly. Even Bernard Hopkins is very accurate at his age.

I do agree power and speed should degrade, but I would like that to depend on training. If I can still finish training games at a high level, I shouldnt lose ratings. But the bar should be raised in training periodically. But I want to keep my power and speed as long as possible.

I would like to have multiple training venues before a match. Maybe at least three I can choose from.

Long story short. I like the idea, just not the way you want to implement it.
