EA Sports producer Mike Mahar on making big changes to Fight Night.
It’s been almost a decade since the critically acclaimed Fight Night Champion, the final title in a series of beloved boxing video games from Electronic Arts. Since 2011, the studio has been focused on its mixed martial arts title, UFC, instead. But with the rise of the popularity of boxing again, thanks to fighters like Floyd Mayweather and Tyson Fury, could we possibly have another Fight Night game on the way?
I honestly cannot state enough just how much i want a new fight night!!!
Boxing is one of my fav sports to watch and it has been way to long since iv had a game to enjoy.
Undisputed looks like a ps3 game, cmon EA, stuff UFC, give the people what we really want which is a boxing game!!!
IT'SSSSSSSS FIIIIIIGHT NIIIIIIGHT!!!!
I hope they make it like round four instead of champions but ill take any fight night at this point
They need to go back to the good roots of FN R2 and FN R3. Everything after watered down the formula too much and enabled gimmicks. FNR2&3 are some of the greatest fighting games ever.
From Xfire: "Sports games are the average Joe's best chance at getting to play under the big bright lights with thousands of people in the stands watching their every move. It doesn't matter if you're a hoops junkie or a baseball fan, sports video games let you live out your hopes and dreams."

In the words of the great Stone Cold Steve Austin Ooooh Hell Yeeeeah!!! lol. Also it would be sweet if EA gave us a new Def Jam Fighting game with a roster of Rappers that's unheard of. Biggie.Pun.Pac.Jam Master Jay.Eminem.JayZ.Eazy E.MGK.Naz. and over 60 of the best rappers ever past and present. One can only hope.
NO! You're crazy for making a mockery of the online.
No need to get goo in the game just buy XP packs and get to the top......PATHETIC!
IMO the only way EA could even hope to fix this issue is not allow people to buy xp for online CAB and delete every created boxer in the OWC.....but EA would really have a shyt storm on their hands.
I swear its always something when it comes to EA $ports
"We've got the online improvements, there's one punch KOs to the body and head, one punch knock down and online gyms"
One punch KO's is considered an improvement on gameplay??...SMH, Now that the only way half the people win after juicing the stats.
Champion mode was a TON of fun though......I hope they expand upon it like the Rocky series of movies did.........It's something I've been hoping for in a boxing game since I played Atari Boxing back in the day.... keep up the good work.
I can't speak on the online component because I gave up on that with round 3...too many spammers, and there's always a way to manipulate it...sounds like that hasn't changed.
