Fury - Joshua is finally happening

[Glass Joe]

I think fury will win by spinning bird kick and people's elbow

Shame EA can't do another boxing game.

He said WINTER WONDERLAND! Hahahahahahha I’ve never heard a gang of lads butcher a song worse

They sing the first bit about 15 times then just revert back to the Christmas Carrol, I can’t stop laughing at that

[PredatorHayds]

Probably the easiest few quid they’ve ever made.

The fact there’s no current boxing game, EA threw good money at them to feature in this.

Lol UFC cucking boxing , no boxing game but 2 of boxings biggest stars in a ufc game lol

Boxing is so marginalised I honestly doubt there will be another game. Unless we get some hitherto unknown prospect come through and electrify the sport. I don’t see anyone like that on the horizon tho.

I think boxing at this stage is still bigger than MMA
but I don’t know for how long

Bigger worldwide? I reckon boxing will be as niche as Muay Thai in a decade as UFC takes over the mainstream.

[margaret thatcher]

It's not zero sum between boxing and mma, mma is bigger but no way is boxing as fringe as muay thai that soon

Fury-AJ will blow away any UFC fight.

Hopefully this game will be decent, EA have definitely turned their back on boxing especially as they are now putting top names in their UFC games

[margaret thatcher]

Hopefully not yet another button mashing stand toe to toe, every fight ends in stoppage slugfest style game play

Boxing games totally suck cock for realistic action for the most part, it's like a bunch of newbs who think boxing is a rocky movie made them

[margaret thatcher]

they all look like stiff brawling idiots going by this footage, hopefully it's just some crude proto gameplay and not gonna be too close to the real thing

[NoScoutingReports]

Fingers crossed, they are putting together a decent roster to be fair and having the WBC/Ring licensing will help from a authenticity standpoint.

[Boxerbeetle]

They’ll never top Victory Boxing on the PS1. I was fvcking untouchable at that game.

[margaret thatcher]

Your lack of good opposition and refusal to take a ped test hurt your legacy

World Championship Boxing Manager rules the roost.

[margaret thatcher]

I mean the manager and sim games can only go so far though, let's get some action know what i mean

We shall see. I don’t hear of many going to boxing gyms now but martial arts gyms are everywhere. Personally I prefer a good boxing match but the sport lags far behind in almost every way except fighter pay.

And it's a hell of a lot more entertaining to watch.

Yeah, it says a lot about the current status of the two sports, that the fight night series has no update slated, and the last verison was 2011!

Aside from a real handful of fighters, most people have no idea who most boxers are at all - Wilder's not even a household name in the US, Canelo and Joshua are the two biggest draws now that Pacquiao is pretty much finished.

Boxing is really a very niche sport.

How much MMA do you watch?

I'm a lifelong boxing fan, but I'm afraid comparatively speaking, the average UFC card pisses all over even the best boxing cards these days, the matchups are much better, and the fights way more entertaining.

Big time PPV fights that live up to the hype are incredibly rare. The last really great world title fight I watched was Joshua v Klitschko. Pretty much all the others have been pretty mediocre.

Fury put on a good performance against Wilder, but it was totally one sided, and the rest of the card was garbage.

Not much at all anymore. I just can't get into it.

Most fights bore me to death to the point that I'm just kinda doing something else while it's on. There's actually an entertaining MMA fight that holds my interest about once every 2 or 3 months maybe.

[margaret thatcher]

A lot of mma fans werent even boxing fans before anyway and hence werent really taking from the sport, a lot of people are fan of both. No doubt MMA is where it's at atm, but boxing will be okay

I liked UFC when I was a kid when it was a new thing, and I would rent the videos and sh*t. I still have Pride FC on DVD, and will never get rid of those as I love that promotion.

The UFC just kinda became too watered down to me as the years went on.

It was a more exciting sport when everybody was bringing their own individual style to the table instead of training from Day 1 to be an MMA fighter.
