Filipino Flyweight boxer Pancho Villa, dominant in the 1920s before dental surgery killed him. Not a new edit, but a big update for my Tyson Fury based off recent showings Jimmy Bivins was one of the top fighters at HW and LHW during WW II Antonio Margarito's career is tarnished with accusations of loaded wrist wraps, but he was a warrior in the ring without them, too --- Some stuff I want to do going forward: -Continue filling out classic wrestling rosters, although that'll remain a piecemeal effort -Make more AAA Lucha Libre edits. These are rather tough, as movesets are harder to piece together and documentation can be a bit iffy on anyone who's not a star, at least in terms of English stuff, but it's by far my favorite current fed -Get back to making MMA fighters -Continue with Project Boxing -In addition to the last point, I'm aiming at an initial roster of twelve ladies for my Womens Boxing collection I already have: Ann Wolfe Laila Ali Cecila Braekhus Katie Taylor Mikaela Mayer And plan to add: Christy Martin Mia St. John Lucia Rijker Valerie Mahfood Holly Holm(boxing version) Clarissa Shields Delfine Persoon
All of your boxers are so detailed and the logic is extremley well made. :) Can't wait to see the womens boxing edits, and of course everything else you'll upload. :)

Ok, another spoilered entry thanks to the plethora of boxers that have gone up since my last post.  Errol Spence Jr, top level Welterweight in the current scene.  Keith Thurman, undefeated and soon to be challenging Manny Pacquiao.  Tommy Morrison, was Tommy Gunn in Rocky V and had a brutal left hook.  Nicolino Locche, Argentine master of defense, casually avoided punches like few others.  Jose "Mantequilla" Napoles, Cuban fighter who made his name in Mexico with his fluid movement.  Ernie Terrell, contender in the 60s, famous for being on the receiving end of Ali's "What's my name?" beatdown.  Fast Eddie Chambers, high ranked American HW in the late 2000s  Cristobal Arreola, a tough slugger who took on top opponents.  Oliver McCall, iron chinned puncher who upset Lennox Lewis for the title.  Jack Root, the first ever Light Heavyweight champ. |

Some new ones, and this time, it's not just boxers! (Ok, there's still some pugilists in this set...)  Jack Blackburn, Lightweight boxer who later trained Joe Louis  Klondike, also known as the Black Hercules, and yes, he did fight under the name Klondike.  Terry Funk, 90s era version  Annie Chang, daughter of Roland Chang Jr, apprentice to Mina Fitsharris in the PEWA  Rick Humphries, Senator Phillips's bodyguard. (and a Humphrey Bogart tribute edit, at that) |

 Roland LaStarza took Rocky Marciano to a split decision before he won the title, and beat Rex Layne.  Rubin "Hurricane" Carter was a top contender at one point at MW, spent years in prison for a contested case that became a public cause.  Murat Gassiev, Russian Cruiserweight who now looks to fight at HW.  James Figg, the original HW champion in the English lineage, popularized boxing in English society in the 1720s. |

A few more foundational figures of boxing:  Jack Broughton, founded Broughton's Rules, which cleaned up the sport a bit, and added gloves to his sparring sessions, along with being a deadly body puncher and brilliant tactician.  Tom Cribb, top and Tom Molineaux were two greats of the 1810s, Cribb being the English HW champ for a decade and Molineaux, an American immigrant who may have once been a slave, was a prodigy who became Cribb's worthiest challenger, their first fight was one of the most dramatic battles in boxing history. |

 Frank Childs, top contender in the 1890s and 1900s, had bad blood with Jack Johnson  Paolino Uzcudun, perhaps Spain's most storied HW, had an absurdly strong chin and went the distance with Max Baer, but not Joe Louis  Michael Grant, tall, hyped HW who came up short compared to expectations  Rodrigo Valdes, Colombian Middleweight who came as close as anyone to taking the belt off Carlos Monzon |

 Rex Layne, 50s era contender who hit hard, but not harder than Marciano, who punched his mouthguard out of his mouth...with the teeth still in  Tommy Loughran, top level technician in the 20s and 30s, comfortable at LHW and HW  James Scott, looked to challenge for the LHW title, while still doing time  Salvador Sanchez, Mexican icon and Featherweight great who died too early in a car crash |

More progress on Project Boxing, filling out the eras and stretching the HW lineage back by another fighter:  Zora Folley(top) - Quality counter puncher who was a contender through the 50s and 60s and earned Ali's respect in a late career challenge Eddie Machen(bottom) - A rival of Folley through the same era, was able to go the distance with Liston with his footwork  Tom Allen, Englishman who competed in the 1860s and 1870s and traveled to the United States to win a HW title of the time, preceding Joe Goss  Michael Bentt, quality amateur who held a victory over Tommy Morrison in the pros that shook up the title scene of the 1990s.  Oscar Rivas, Colombian HW who was undefeated prior to a recent loss to Dillian Whyte which is now in the process of being overturned due to Whyte's failed drug test |
