Fight Night 2 needs Mike Tyson!

And what about Lamon Brewster. I mean come on. That guy is the WBO champ!

ya they should have wlad klitschko in tha game he fights juan manuel marquez or sugar ray leonard and u see him get knocked out cold

I was thinking the same thing. But I guess they could get the right to Punchout easier than to get a license for Tyson in the actual game. But with all of Mike's financial problems he definitely wouldn't turn down a pay day, so it has to be some company that has the rights and is holding on to them. But it was so easy to make Mike in the game. The only thing missing was the black trunks. How could they not put black trunks and black shoes? They had to know that we needed them to make Mike!

Nintendo made a new Mike Tyson boxing game but it sucks. If they can put lil'mack in Fight Night 2, then they should put Mike Tyson in too if they own him.

are the klitschkos even in this game, I mean at least vitali should be, though I wish the creat a player mode was more like tiger woods the one now sucks more then last year.

AMEN to this thread. That game needs him real bad. Every time I play FN 2004 i always feel like there missing someone. It also needs the Klitschko brothers.

I have yet to see a boxing game that includes Mike Tyson.

Yes he was released from his contract with nintendo years back and then was picked up by Codemasters, which produced a horrible game on all of the major consoles and however a diamond was in the rough when they made the Mike Tyson game for GBA, great game and career. Tyson was your trainer and you would work your way through the ranks to fight him, great game actually for the system it was on. Codemasters still owns the Tyson name, because they are still producing that debacle of a game "Mike Tysons Heavyweight Boxing" for the Xbox console. Codemasters is notorious for locking in contracts for an extended period of time to keep lock on their investments I guess. However the good news is, Codemasters signed Naseem Hamed to a contract years ago and put out 2 boxing game titles and his contract expired not to long ago (it was sent out in a codemasters newsletters). So the possibility of getting the Prince in a game is very likely for the next boxing game to come out. Foreman was in HBO boxing along with a lot of other top fighters, My god did that game have a great roster. However none of those fighters are contracted either and acclaim went out of business so Foreman is open season but I bet he is pricing himself out.

yea I think tyson is still licensed to the maker of mike tyson punchout isn't he? this is what i heard...or something like this situation.

ya cuz if they put mike tyson in he would prolly ko everyone in the first round n it would ruin competetion lol but they gotta put him in!

Yeah, he still has to be the star of the show. They COULD use a fake name but risk litigation. I think we'll all just have to be content with the create-a-boxer's (lack of) options.

They could use a fake name

Gameboy advance made a Mike Tyson boxing game a couple of years ago.

yea I think tyson is still licensed to the maker of mike tyson punchout isn't he?

I'm not exactly sure but I think it similar to the time Michael Jordan was left out of certain NBA game rosters - he was such a big entity he would license himself exclusively. Most companies aren't going to pay outrageous amounts for one name when there are literally hundreds of others to choose from. OOOR maybe they just don't consider him a legitimate contender or something, but then why have dead and retired boxers.

Agreed......

Why Tyson is not there Cause He Migth Eat Your Children

Hell yeah!!! I wish EA Sports would do that.
