The right cross that Ali connected on Liston was no phantom punch. It was only debated because of Ali's unpopularity in many areas of the country and the fact that only one video angle of the punch provided any proof other then unbiased ringside observers. That video proof is more than enough for me.


Tex Maule wrote a then famous article in Sports Illustrated following the fight called "A Quick Hard Right And A Needless Storm Of Protest" calling the shot a perfectly valid, stunning right-hand punch to the side of the head


Ringside observer Floyd Patterson, no fan of Ali (still called him Clay) described the punch as a "perfect right hand".

The blow had so much force that it lifted Liston's left foot, where most of his weight was resting, off the canvas.

Game is complete garbage. A button mashers wet dream. Punches are far to accurate. There is no defense what so ever. Fighter walk through jabs and crosses even power modified ones like they are nothing. Same arcade trash as before. Frame rate is horrible. Punch delay is horrible. Same weak presentation. Just prettier graphics. Was so excited to play the demo, now I don't even want the trash on my system anymore.

Someone uploaded the 360 version that you can burn to a data disc and they are giving away codes and sharing a PSN dummy account to share the PS3 version. I got the 360 version of the demo last night from over there and had some fun with it.

I'm downloading the files, i have an unmodded xbox AND I'm using a MAC for the burn/write process...so it may not work we'll see.

I will not join that forum though.

Played the demo. At first I was impressed by the graphics and ease of control. Some good stuff there.

The more I played though, the less I liked it. There are a lot of punches thrown and landed. And stamina never seemed to play a part at all. I could throw punch after punch after punch and never really got drained.

I also realize that I hate the fact that a sports game is M rated. I mean, I realize using an original story and making it gritty, whatever. That's fine. Just seems a little much with the amount of swearing in the menu music as well.

I've heard that before from this series though. These were problems with Fight Night 4, that are still here 2 years later, and now they will tweak them.

Like I said about the F-bombs, the story doesn't bother me with them being in there as I get the idea they are going for. Just didn't appreciate turning on the game and having the soundtrack drop swearing while trying to choose a boxer. Just not necessary IMO for a sports game.

Yeah, that was my issue. My son was in the back of the room playing. Just didn't get the point of having that in the game. Or at least have an option to turn it off. I have no problem it being in the story like I said, I know it's there and expect it there so would play it after hours if I got the game. But having it outside of that mode is unacceptable to me.

And I realize I'm in the minority here.
