An example of above would be my Lightheavy B-Hop. His power, speed and accuracy are about 80 and his heart and chin are 100 with his toughness 90. His AI is counterpuncher as he is a defensive fighter first and not a volume puncher.
Another example would be my Lucian Bute CAB. I have his speed at 95 (for legacy purposes), head movement at 85 and power at 75 and 80. After a few years he's still 100 speed, but he has 85 and 90 power with 90ish head movement. His AI is unconventional (though he's mostly a counterpuncher in real life) and swelling 90 with cuts at 100.
Sidenote: cuts and swelling decrease for the CAB's over time just as they do for us, so you prolly should raise the swelling and cuts to 10 points more than it would be in reality.
What I usually do is DL CAB's if I don't have them and edit their ratings according to this scale for each skill set for an 81 CAB (cuts/swelling further down):
A++ 100 Think Ali's speed, Tyson's power or Willie Pep's head movement. Rare and elite, these guys have something named after them; Ali's jab, Tyson's hook/uppercut, etc.
A 90 Guys who can do one punch damage. For CAB purposes I think of Hagler and Hearns, etc. Will be 100 in three to four years of legacy.
A- 85 Guys have good, KO power. RJJ and Holyfield.
B+ 80-85 They will wear you down. In my mind I think of Hopkins and Sugar Ray Leonard. Will have a 90+ rating in three to six years.
B 75-80 Good but not great, will be 85-88 in three to six legacy years.
C 60-70 serviceable and there, but not a threat. Old Foreman's foot speed, Wlad Klitchko's chin.
D - F 50-60 Terrible. Valuev's hand/foot speed.
As far as cuts and swelling it decreases about 1-5 points a year for CPU boxers, so anyone with a history of swelling or cutting should be an 80 starting out. Anyone that does it at times should be 90 and those who rarely do it 100. Gerry Cooney would get a 70, lol.
The reason for 81 overall is at 80 they max out at about 88 overall tops and at 82 they maxed at 93-100. 81 is about right. Let me know what you guys think! It makes the legacies more fun for me.
