I've wondered that also. Other legends they could throw in there us Gene Tunney, Billy Conn, Virgil Hill, Jose Torres.
dont forget john conteh
John Conteh is probably pushing it, although given his issues they could probably get it cheap.
I think it come down to those guys not really being that well-known by the game buying public. I would have thought Michael Spinks would have been a good one especially with Tyson on the game, but screw it, I'll just make em on the CABS
I think the cruiserweight and supermiddleweight divisions really have done a number on the lightheavyweight divisions in the last 20 years. It allows guys who might move from middleweight to not have to make such a jump up by staying at supermiddle. The cruiserweight division allows most guys who were light heavys to stay out of the heavyweight division, especially with these monsters they have now. Guys like Eddie Mustafa Muhammed would have never tried to explore the heavy division if the cruiserweight titles had been well established 28 years ago rather than being an oddity at the time he fought Snipes.
virgill hill ain't no legend.
It's true that most of the great light-heavyweights aren't necessarily all time greats or fighters that a great deal of people know about. So i doubt EA will be putting the likes of Bob Foster in a computer game.
It's criminal really, considering fighters like Ortiz made it but obviously thats through association of some sort.
I myself have never rally been bothered by the rosters in Fight Night so long as there's the ability to create good custom boxers.
To be honest, I'm really not a fan of this gameface thing, but then again, i haven't given it much of a chance... Its far too easy to just download fighters online! ;D
I'm trying to figure out how many i can download... I've downloaded dozens so far, slowly getting through my hit-list :)
I just go to EAsportsworld, boxer share and search for any good CAB's then bookmark them for later. Quality piracy ;D
Considering they should be able to mix in some super middlweights there really is no reason for them to have such a weak division: Bob Foster, Chris Eubank, Nigel Benn, Steve Collins, Mikkel Kessler, Bernard Hopkins, Prime James Toney, Dick Tiger, and all the other guys you have mentioned could make it a strong division in the game....even adding Glen Johnson or Antonio Tarver wouldn't be horrible
The Heavyweight division ain't all that great either, when Eddie Chambers and James Toney are the only 2 current heavyweights in the game then that is lame....good on getting Foreman, Frazier, Tyson, Lewis, and Frazier, but obviously they need to get the Klitschko's in the game....tell them they can donate the money they get from the game to charity or something!
Still wondering what a young undefeated wrecking machine like Michael Moorer could have done if he had ever recieved a shot at a Williams,Hill or Czyz :shinner:
