EA can fit hundreds of characters in games like madden and fifa and NBA live so surely they could put all these boxers on the game. I know thre is legal issues with some fighters but i am going to ignore those stumbling blocks in this list.

My idea is to have 5 current and 5 classic fighters in each division apart from flyweight

Classic fighters in bold

Wladimir Klitschko, Nikolay Valuev, Samuel Peter, Oleg Maskaev and James Toney

Muhammed Ali, Mike Tyson, Rocky Marciano, Jack Johnson and Joe Louis

Archie Moore, Bob Foster, Dick Tiger, Evander Holyfield and Michael Spinks
