jbergey_2005 Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 I just looked up the boxing weight divisions and I couldn't believe my eyes. They have divisions as little as 3 pounds long. Most of them are, in fact. The only big weights are Cruiserweight and Heavyweight. I have to say, it's absolutely ridiculous and I can't imagine boxing sticking around too long now that MMA has taken the front seat. 3 pounds does not a difference make in a fight, boxing or otherwise. To suggest otherwise is just silly. The boxing classifications are laughable. Boxing has tradition on its side. While MMA has certainly taken away some of boxings popularity in a lot of peoples eyes these sports arent that similar. Personally, I think MMA is promoted much better right now while boxing thinks they can live on their tradition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afroduck Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Hey this may have been asked before, but I was just wondering what was roughly the right number of fighters to have per division.I am trying to get my game set to where ALPHA-1 and GAMMA let the young fighters actually develop instead of getting picked up with one or two fights and thrown to the wolves.

dormammu Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 <p>I'm noticing a weirdness with weight classes. Right now, I'm running two. Heavyweight (206-600lbs) and Light Heavyweight (186-205.) On world rankings, nearly half of the guys in my Light Heavyweight division are ranked as Middleweights. I thought maybe they were gaining weight to fight in Light Heavyweight (since it's the lightest class I have), so I created a Middleweight division (171-185) but it has no one in it, so it apparently isn't that.</p><p> </p><p> So, it's a very minor thing, but does anyone know what's going on with this weight class weirdness? If at all possible, I'd really prefer for my guys to fight in whatever weight class they're globally ranked in.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kainlock Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 After you create a weight class you have to assign guys in it if they were already in another weight class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had up to 60 per division but that was just dumb. I'd have 7 cards fully booked and i'd still have guys left over. There are guys I'd forget about who hadn't fought in over a year. Unacceptable.</p><p> </p><p> I tried to cut that number in half over the years and I found that to be much better for my GAMMA promotion, but it didn't help young fighters much. The competition gets so stiff that you have to be a good fighter to get anywhere in my GAMMA. It became too hard to develop my fighters. I wish I could control a bought-out company and develop my young fighters there, but when i send guys down they don't get used.</p><p> </p><p> So... to answer your question... the more fighters the better it is for younger fighters I'd think. You have to keep some straight up cans on your roster for your future prospects to beat. With 30 fighters per division, you won't have any room for cans.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green poncho Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 I start with 16 fighter per weight class and double it up to 32 a little later, but I don't keep any cans. Fighters on winning streaks fight fighters on winning streaks, fighters on losing streaks fight fighters on losing streaks, debut vs debut, etcetera, etcetera Practically every title fight is #1 vs #2 and lots of title defenses are a rare thing.

dormammu Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 <p>Surprisingly, I couldn't find this in the help file, so let me ask here. During contract negotiation, what's the point of having a "The contract will be for X fights" and "The contract will guarantee up to X fights." ? I always seems to have to renew the contract with one guaranteed fight left. If I don't, they walk out after the last guaranteed fight, regardless of the other number.</p><p> </p><p> So what's the point of having both those fields? The guaranteed number of fights seems to be the only thing that matters.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green poncho Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 <p>Do you have "The contract will be for X fights" and "The contract will guarantee up to X fights" the same?</p><p> </p><p> If not, it sounds like your game is glitched bro.</p><p> </p><p> "The contract will be for X fights" is how many fights you can have before the fighter leaves. If you don't resign him when he has one fight left his contract will be over and he will leave.</p><p> </p><p> "The contract will guarantee up to X fights" is pretty much what sounds like. You are saying he will get X amount of fights, if you either cut him or his contract runs out time wise before you give him that many fights, you will have to pay him for each fight he didn't get. So let's say you signed him for a five-fight contract, all guaranteed, for 18 months at $500 a fight, yet only gave him 3 fights before the 18 months were over. You would have to pay him $1000 for the two fights he didn't get.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigtplaystew Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 <p>There are two main ways a contract can be finished. Either when they fight the number of fights you signed them for or whenever the agreed length of time is over. </p><p> </p><p> So let's say you sign a guy for 5 fights, you garuntee 3 fights, and the contract is for 24 months.</p><p> </p><p> They will fight 5 times for you regardless. Unless the 24 months passes before that time, then the contract is up. Theyll renegotiate after the 4th, but even if they sign somewhere else they'll still fight the 5th fight for you before they leave for the other company. They'll also renegotiate if they have 28 days left on the contract.</p><p> </p><p> When you garuntee the fight, you are saying to the fighter that you are at least promising them 3 fights. If you cut them, you'll have to pay their fight salary as a penalty. YOU are making the garuntee not them. </p><p> </p><p> But if you have a contracted fighter for 5 fights he has to fight 5 times unless you don't book him enough and the time expires on the contract.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lex Star Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 <p>How do stat increases work? Do they gain stats faster when booked in more fights? That is, do they gain stats only during their preparation camp? </p><p> </p><p> And can you influence what stats they gain?

"This fighter currentley isn't part of any camp, but is working on improving their striking".</p><p> </p><p> A fighter can end up being a can or HOFamer depending on camps and how soon they get to them.</p><p> </p><p> There is also that destiny stat, in some game a fighter can end up going to a real good camp and end up a can, while in another the same fighter might join a "bad" camp and be very successful.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dude-1981 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 <p>4th times a charm?</p><p> </p><p> Does anyone ever do a 4th fight between 2 guys?</p><p> </p><p> I basically never put two guys together for a 4th time on general principal. Cabral and Sugar are the only lightweight main-eventers I have at this point but Sugar won the decider to take the series 2-1 and it just seems wrong to put them together again.</p><p> </p><p> And does this game ever seem like a big version of rock, paper, scissors to anyone else. I'll give you an example:</p><p> </p><p> Katou beats Yamada. </p><p> </p><p> Yamada beats Hasegawa.</p><p> </p><p> Hasegawa beats Katou.</p><p> </p><p> And repeat.

bigtplaystew Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 I've had a 4th fight before on a few occasions. Sometimes ya just need a good main event and it's sitting there. I've never had a steller commercial rating from a 4th fight though. I'm not saying fans dont care about a 4th fight in the game... but everytime I personally have done it I feel like there was less commercial intrest in the fight. Still, I'm in a High International popularity company in GAMMA now so I need two fights pretty much both with High Popularity. The minor commercial intrest hit i MIGHT take in a 4th fight between two main eventers is better than having a main event with two less popular fighters.
