Introducing fighters;
I use 5 different era's in boxing. 1890's- @1924, 1925-1950, 1951-1975, 1976-1990, 1990-present.
I've translated them into WBA, WBO, WBC, IBF, IBO. My Universe starts in 1915. Fighters coming onto to the scene usually come in with preset records. For instance Larry Holmes enters with a record of 6-0 then meets the first fighter in the game Kevin Isaacs who would have a 2-0 record. Ali would enter 9 years into his era which would be 9 years after the whole universe start year of 1915 so Ali would be introduced in 1924 as would every fighter 9 years into their era. Nothing is in concrete though. Fighters will not be killed in cars, motorcycles, airplanes and by guns. Fighters may start out fighting the guys they actually met in their careers but their paths will change according to their progress. Norton probably will meet Frazier and Holmes will fight Dokes, Coetzee, Thomas and Page. Dempsey will also have to cross the color line and fight Wills as will Sullivan. Johnson will also have to give Jeanette, Wills, McVey and Langford title shots should he win the title before them.
