So Roy Jones having the same head toughness as Marvelous Marvin Hagler is scaled correctly?
Im not saying that what they were going for was wrong but I am saying that their approach is lacking.
If you use modifiers on the ratings to factor in weight and height then you dont need to just cap ratings. A hard punch from a 147 lber is not the same thing as a hard punch from a 225 lber. I know this but apparently the game doesn't and so we have the ratings caps. Its not even like you can have welters fighting heavys anyways so why cant all classes have their ratings judged on the 100 point scale they have set up?
Back to Cintron. The man's game may be lacking in some areas but punching power just isnt one of those areas. He bombs on dudes and gets them out of there. You can say he doesnt like to take punches and his body toughness is questionable but you cant say that he wont sit fighters down if he gets some good clean shots in there. As of right now, I feel no difference fighting with him than any other welterweight except that his stamina is questionable, head movement is iffy, and not the best hand speed. All of which would be acceptable if I knew that I dont have to hit you with many clean punches because he throws bombs. Unfortunately, he throws a very middle-of-the-pack punch to go along with his middle-of-the-pack everything else.
