I don't really follow boxing much any more. Too many titles and belts. Bad fights. I'm old now I guess so I prefer the sport up to about 1955. The sixties were good but always identified more with Louis, Dempsey, Burns, etc. Doesn't help we don't get live fights here in the Great White North unless you have special channels which I'm not buying. Once in a blue moon FOX has PBC fights on. (The ONLY time we watch FOX) Pretty hard to follow a sport that doesn't get a mention in the paper or on the TV news unless it's some ex-fighter getting arrested for being stupid.
I still enjoy TB 2.5 and the inspiration it gives to research fighters and hunt for old photos, and use my meagre skills to improve on some I find. I can spend hours without even playing the game, setting up stuff to use in the game.
If they could tweak it here and there, and add better graphics and voice (won't ever happen) that would be the perfect boxing game.
