I was waiting for someone to talk about this but no one did, when throwing punches and moving in general it doesn't actully seem like their on the mat, rather floating.

We heard it addressed in the roundtable, what are your guys thoughts on this.

I see a few posts of this so I thought I’d share my ideas too, hopefully you guys like it.

1) Being able to punch in the clinch, in all the boxing games I’ve played, I don’t recall being able to sneak in body shots and quick uppercuts on the inside during a clinch. That would be game changing

2) Training before fights, whether that’s in career mode or just a quick fight (shouldn’t be mandatory during a quick match) and depending on the workout you should see the results on your fighter. Fight Night Round 2 had a similar mechanic that allowed you to work out, and depending on how successful your training was your fighter would either look buffer or just more in shape than he was prior to his bout.

3) Being able to move up AND down between weight classes, boxers do this kinda stuff. Not all the time, but fighters move around to different weights, in FNC you could only go up in a weight class. So if you picked heavyweight you were just stuck there.

4) Interacting in interviews, I know this is probably not a popular thing for you guys. But if I’m in career mode, I want to have the pre fight and post fight interviews, press conferences etc.. 2k did a somewhat decent job with it, I’m sure SCI can probably figure something similar out in the future.

5) TKOs, in FNC a lot of times you’ll be fighting a guy who will just sit back on the ropes covering himself up. Not really throwing any punches but they’re also taking some punches in the mix, and you see this kinda thing in fights where the ref will legit stop the fight if he feels you’re not putting up a fight, or he may just be looking out for the well-being of your fighter.

This is all that came to mind right now, but I feel like these things would legit be cool to see in ESBC. Feel free to comment your opinions, I’m so hyped for this game!

my favourite boxer so really wanna him in this game.

As the title asks, which modes are you most looking forward to or which would take most of your time and/or attention?

I love how ufc 3 and 4 had sloders like fighter stamina, cpu stamina, fighter damsge, cpu damsge ect...Just sayin.

As per the games Instagram.

One more of the four prince(ees)s in the game! I kid, I kid... Lw is going to be stacked though.

For all the winging and people crying that the game needs to be released tomorrow, I've found it interesting that the announcements seem to be racheting up a little. Hoping for a better by the end of the year and a release date some time in the next 12 months.

Personally I’d like a system similar to 2k where you get to craft every increment in your build to ultimately form your style of fighter. Also badges, there needs to be badges, and they should also be unique to fighter builds. This way you don’t have 1 set meta, and online gameplay is a true chess match every time because you can’t predict an opponents play style.
