Let’s hope so.
Long overdue

Long overdue man! 2020 is the year I think..

I doubt ea would be making it, I know someone who developed champion and ea saw it as a really big bomb, which is a shame as their engine does a good job with punching in the clinch in ufc 3 game.. I sure Eddie could find some developers in eastern Europe to make one though, I wouldn't expect anything great though.

Bombed? Really?
Be interesting to see the figures.

Really big bomb might be a bit dramatic but fight night champion sold all fair bit less than its predecessor and ea decided it was done and ufc was the way to go. Boxing is really big in Britain though so maybe that would convince them to give it another go, I doubt it though, someone could make a good one though.

The fact they stopped making them probably confirms poor sales.
Oh for another Tyson to come through and change boxing for the casual fans. Won't happen these days.

I don't think it bombed, Fight Night Champion actually did really well.

It sold a million less than the one before and they put a lot of effort into making the storyline mode for champion.. Ea were for sure not happy with how it sold.. I hope they do make another one as they could do a really good job.. But boxing fans seem to be declining in America so I don't think ea would put the effort in to make a new one after 9 years(especially and they can pretty much just copy and paste ufc games now)..
I wouldn't be surprised if Eddie finds someone else to make a boxing game though, the eastern euros really are getting good at making stuff and the cost is lower there too.
