RATINGS
* Power-Determines how hard your overall punches are. This also effects the individual punch stats.
EX: If Power is 80 and Cross power is 100 then the Cross will do full damage.
*Hand Speed-Determines how fast your punches are.
*Foot Speed-Determines how fast your footwork is.
*Upper body Speed-Determines how fast you can move upperbody.
*Defense-Determines how good your defense is.
*Body-Determines how well you take it to the body.
*Chin-determine if the boxer gets up from a KD.
*Durability-determines how much damage you can take before you start to visit the canvas.
*Heart-determine if the boxer "gives up" like taking a knee and not getting up, or how hard they fight when they are clearly losing.
*Technique-Determines how compact or wide your punches are.
*Stamina-determines how long it takes before you get fatigue.
EXAMPLES
Power stat:
Lower than 50 - punches as hard as Cory Spinks
50 - average puncher
60-70 - decent power
80 - good pop in punches can KO with a well timed punch
90-95 - Power punchers like Pacquiao, V. Klitschko, Mayorga, etc.,
96-98 - Marciano, Foreman, Tua, etc.,
99-100 - "Fists of God" one hit its over, your breaking ribs, jaws, arms, everything.
It should be damn near impossible to get either 99 or 100.
HIGH CHIN RATING & LOW DURABLE RATING will cause the fighter to go down much quicker then usual but really won't be be hurt. So you'll basically be more accessible to Flash Knockdowns.
LOW CHIN RATING; HIGH DURABLE RATING will cause the fighter to be more easier to hurt and be "out on his feet" but he won't fall so easy. He'll be more accessible to stoppages by the ref.
GAMEPLAY
*Body punches are more effective like in VB.
*Boxers with long arms in ineffective in close.
*Knockdown/out system should be determine by either fatigue, momentum, angle of punch, power of punch, cumulation of punishment, or all 5
-Better KO records for people that have high power ratings
-EA challenges. Like to score 10 consecutive 1st round KOs or to win World titles in 4 different divisions

I apologize for the WISHES I didn't post it's a lot and some of them are very good to that's why I included the page address.
reignmaka,spreeul8r,Southpaw ,champ4ever, boxingfanatic ,jjunh,jdub2k55,MBjreincarnated,Canadian05, koartis t,RACDiesal1,redsun2163,RRsports03...etc, I want to thank everyone who contributed to this list.
I'll buy four copies to pass out just to let people know how a boxing game is suppose to be.
I've seen this list before. That's a pretty good wishlist. I'm hoping a few of those make it into FN4.
I don't know much about Aki, but I just want all the good fighters in one title and not spread out. It'll be nice to get the older guys in FN4, but I'm excited about playing guys like Mosley, Pavlik, Pacquiao, Cotto, Cintron, Calzaghe, Marguerito & even Mayweather. Actually, give me Hamed in his prime as well, I miss that guy.
Anyway, I really don't want all the good fighters getting spread out all over a bunch of different titles. I don't know if there will be any overlap with FN and Prizefighter, but I never even played that one and if Pavlik, Mayorga and Calzaghe aren't in FN4 just because of it I'm going to be pissed.
If they were to create a great game with excellent gameplay and boxers that fight like real boxers with fake name we can edit I'm pretty sure it will sell well. Look at Victorious Boxers.
"Skipped your long ass post because I don't know how to read, but didn't Aki make Ultimate Muscle for the GameCube? And WWF No Mercy on 64?
I think it was them..."
It's actually a good read if you are a boxing fan and have played the Knockout Kings/Fight Night series.
