I like the request of possibly modifiying some overlooked fighters, like the referenced Hurricane Carter by Mark42661. Maybe some historical fighters' ratings can be modified a bit. Not necessarliy moving/changing their weight class, just giving a little tweak.

I was also thinking about THROWBACK MONDAYS. Maybe during the week or as we approach, we can give suggestions on possible modifications, whether it be an alternate weight or a historical fighter revisit.

For example, I can always remember a 168 pound Roberto Duran. I even remember when earlier versions of the game didnt even have the option of a smaller, better Duran. The SMW was the 'modern Duran' at the time and, as a lot of you may remember, a single fighter having 3 or 4 weight classes to choose from didnt exist. I always used to wish I had a LW, MW or even a JMW Duran because all the game offered was a SMW Duran. Funny that nowadays, I would like a SMW Duran. Exact same with Alexis Arguello @ 140. Early versions always had the JWW Arguello. There was never a younger, stronger Arguello @ FW-LW. Now, I would love your interpretation of a JWW Arguello.
