Kelly Pavlik to be in new 2K boxing game

[C.C.SABATHIA]

haha you fools are crazy(the ea sports curse) lol.

You only really need about 5 people to warrant putting in a new weight class.
1) Calzaghe
2) Lacy
3) Eubank
4) Benn
5) Reid
6) Jones Jr

All off the top of my head, all titlists. Im sure with a little more thought it could be done.

You can't forget Kessler, James Toney or Sven Ottke on that list.

Sven Ottke was sarcasm before anybody bites my face off.

That would be an excellent roster for the divison but i doubt 2K would invest money in putting in boxers like Lacy, Eubank, Reid, and Benn that only the hardcore boxing fans appreciate

Lacy is still active now and was a big draw before he got taken back to school. Eubank and Benn are household names in Britain and I dare say are quite well know in USA too. As for Reid, you cant include Calzaghe and not the only man to beat him....

[revs1227]

it's the EA Sports curse:

McNabb
Vick
Vince Carter
Jones
Hopkins
De La Hoya


and now Gilbert Arenas

All have been on the cover of their respect sports and went down with major injuries/losses/knockouts.

Yeah that was my point really, casual fans arn't going to recognise names like Eubank, Reid, Benn, Kessler etc. But then again...they did have fighters like Vincent Escobedo in the lightweight division.

Kessler is really only known in the US for fighting Calzaghe and James Toney is a LHW I believe (I've been wrong before though). As for Ottke, although he was by no means undefeated, his record states he was, he could be included.

Would it really be that hard to spell out your words? Your horrible typing looks like an ebonics eye chart.

I wonder how the gameplay will be? Hopefully their roster of boxers is as much or more as EA's.

James Toney was ring magazines #1 P4P fighter while he was in the SMW division.
