      Did you hear that 2K Sports? Nobody wants to pay him, 2K Sports. Did you hear that?

        The 5 people in sports that I look forward to them retiring


        1. PBF
        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.

                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.

                      Gameplay all day! I'm still holding out for the game to work properly.

                        It's close.

                        With the tendency sliders we have and the knowledge of each AI type and how each slider works in relation to the AI type, we can create him just fine.

                          I like Mayweather and a fan of his. Just pisses me off that he wont fight Manny. Would Ali, Sugar Robinson, or any other great fighter back down from a challenge? Nope.

                          I just hope he fights him. If your good then you can beat him. Oh well...

                              You don't get millions by giving away money.
