  • The History of Fight Night is deeply rooted in the series that preceded its inception. Many of the aspects and mechanics are inspired from the early iterations of boxing games developed and published by EA and its partners. While Fight Night has seemingly disappeared since the release of the latest Fight Night Champion game; eSports Boxing Club is attempting to rekindle the flame that once burned. The series will forever be iconic in its own right. Let's take a retrospective look at what made the series into the undeniable champion of boxing video games, and the eventual fall from grace. This is, The History of Fight Night.

      This should be in NETFLIX… I am the biggest Fight Night fan… I one the Buffalo, NY tournament but I wasn’t gonna pay to fly out to Las Vegas for the finals. But I got the T-Shirt for winning… it was pretty dope. It’s sad they stole the new engine for fight night on EA UFC 2

      Damn Man,
      This is Great Retrospective of A series I've been playing since Knockout Kings 2000.
      I stumbled upon this channel while playing Fight Night 2004 on my PS2.
      This details the evolution of the series but also points out what we're missing from older games.

I heard they released a game called Undisputed but I haven't seen a copy at any stores or been able to download it. i wonder if a copy of Fight Night Champion from PS3 would work on PS5 because it's backwards compatible.

I used to play so many matches just as Tyson and beating the f out of people for hours. Stunning game. Amazing series. Disgusting it’s disappeared. I genuinely remember every day I got the game for the first day and booting it up. Like I remember the exact time day and what I did that whole day for everyone one of these games. Nothing too special but I played and got fight night.

      @greg6162 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yup 💯!!! That’s my exact order as well… the first Fight Night was the best! Even if combos weren’t meant for the buttons… there was a timing delay that made you feel like you were connected to your fighter and throwing straight heat. Parry was a little unrealistic but it worked because it balanced the game and made you think strategically about every punch thrown. Button mashers got schhmaaacked!! Timing was everything and more importantly you had to figure out your opponent’s style and pattern. It’s #1 for me because the controls were so intuitive I felt like I was really connected to my fighter. Although you couldn’t punch moving footwork was probably the best footwork for realistic movement and just the balance scale. You had to get set to punch but you could stick and move if you couldn’t go toe to toe with someone. Being ranked #30-#40 average and always in the top #100 I had a lot of guys jab and run winning fights against me until I learned how to cut the ring off. There was a skill to everything but nothing was OP and any good competitive true sports game is going to have an advanced rock/paper/scissors approach… meaning you can adjust and counter attack when your opponent’s throw the same punch or combo…. Ahhh the memories!!
