Zello Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 Yes we have Kickboxing but I want boxing. We already have KT/MMA/ and Grappling orgs. We need Boxing orgs. It'd be much like the KT game is now just no kicks allowed and maybe allow for like 10-15 rounds. This will probably never happen like ever in the game but hey. Imma shoot my shot. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popart Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 I've thought about this idea before as a boxing fan myself. However, I don't think it would be competitive. All you'd really need is Striking Defense, Punches, and the Boxing primary. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra7 Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 For it to truly be something huge at least in my opinion the concept of cross and uppercut would need to be introduced so it isnt as predictable in scenario such as this: Fighter A: 100% punch so fighter B: counter strike 100% ect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rei Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 Not viable, since all different punches (jab, cross, hook, upper etc.) are all valued the same in this game - just a punch. Would require tons of flavour text or the creation of another engine derivative, and just look at TWGC / KT to see how shallow they are already. I'd love it but its not a realistic addition, especially considering the current development landscape. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warwynd Posted February 23, 2019 Report Share Posted February 23, 2019 The main problem as I see it is as Rei pointed out and that the KT orgs and Grappling orgs usually fold up because there just aren't enough fighters that are that specialized. So you fight the same three fighters over and over again, get bored, leave the org and after a few events the org has no one in it so they fold. There is a possible fix here, but I am not sure how labor intensive it would be and whether Mike is willing to even invest the effort into something like that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f2fkoh Posted February 24, 2019 Report Share Posted February 24, 2019 I want to say there was a boxing division in the past, or even a tourney, but it didnt amount to much. It would be cool to see a boxing tourney between the top fighters of a division though. Like a one off kind of deal, throw a kick, get a DQ kind of thing.

Maybe Boxing orgs gain moire money but gain less hype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was one at a time I was a competitor in it and it was kinda exciting but I thought it was moving slow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dopestcoverart Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 Boxing doesn't seem like a good Idea with this type of engine 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
