Why can't we have a great career mode?? its been only what 15 years since an american boxing game had a good career mode.

Agreed. We touched on that one over in the Prizefighter forums. A vast career, similar to a Madden or Ncaa franchise mode.

Reading about all the new things to add to career mode reminded me of a old game. Who remembers Greatest Heavyweights Of The Ring for genesis it already had a lot of the training features we want now and the graphics were on point it came out in 92.

Truth. 90% of what was mentioned is already in Boxer's Road 2 on the PSP as well. Even injuries. I remember getting hurt in a fight but still winning but my fighter was out for several months and could not train.

It would be cool to have more than one created boxer available, kind of like being able to control more than one team in other sports.
If you choose to fight against your own creation, the computer would fight using your style- something like the way 2k5 football will call plays against you if you give them your VIP.

i'd also like to see the ability to move up and down in weight classes. after unifying the belts in one division, i'd like to move up to a different division a la roy jones jr.

They really need to try and implement a multi-player career mode as well. I have alot of friends who play fight night and we all think we are better than the other, with a multi-player career mode the belt holder is the best like in real life.

I'm curious if DC gyms are included... Like Sugar Ray's or Olde School...

But I cant wait for fists to start flying...

The best career mode was Hajime no Ippo 2: Victorious Road for the PS2. Controlled everything down to the diet, exercises, training regiment, and the like. You can choose what year you want to start in, region (Japanese, England, USA) and even if you wanted to fight real boxers or just the anime characters. Simply amazing.
