Have you ever been so admiring of a sport that you may not particularly practice? For me that sport is boxing, which the closest I’ve ever gotten to it is via Xbox and so EA’s exceptional realistic trailer of upcoming Fight Night Round 4 has me further enthusiastic about the prospect of its release and success. Added characters, more refined graphics and true inside fighting just to name of few of it’s features which seems like it’s going to outshine its predecessor away, which I would expect nothing less from the great folks at EA.
Why boxing? Because in no other sport is mental toughness so vital especially when the build-up towards the final fight plays an equally pivotal role. Boxers have to endure months of training, press conferences, countdowns, predictions and weigh-ins as a preliminary towards a fight, so in essence the combat has already begun way before the sound of a bell. James Rall best describes the unpredictability that I love about the sport and why I follow it religiously:
In no other sport can a person or team be losing badly and then, a second later, be victorious. In football, if a team is losing by three scores, they need four scores to win. In boxing, if a man is losing nine rounds he needs only one punch, a knockout, to win.
