The latest in a series of recent news reports on Fight Night Round 4 comes by way of the Canadian Press. In a recent interview with Mike Tyson, The Canadian Press touched on several topics including his career, current favorites in the sport and details on Fight Night Round 4 where the heavyweight champion appears on the cover with legendary Muhammad Ali. However, what is of interest is the fact that the article goes on to say some boxers that were still under the veil of secrecy in terms of roster appearance. Tyson says:

"That's why everyone should get this game, because it puts Ali and me in our prime and has the two of us fighting magnificently well," Tyson told The Canadian Press in a telephone interview. "I haven't done well as Mike Tyson, but as Joe Frazier, I kicked a lot of ***.

"Maybe Joe Frazier is a better fighter in the game."

The article then states:

�Other fighters include Canadian Lennox Lewis, George Foreman, Sugar Ray Leonard, Tommy Hearns and Mexican legend Julio Cesar Chavez, as well as British light-welterweight Ricky Hatton and the man he will face live in the ring on May 2 in Las Vegas, Manny Pacquiao.�
