Instead of creating "licensed boxers" images, they could create presets for the various facial features

Obviously more features could be added, ears, head shape, hair,cheeks, ect

I don't know about the legal side of things, can a nose be trademarked ? This could be a possible solution to getting fighters likenesses down, without having to sign them. Thoughts?

GREAT idea! Also fighters like Joe Louis, Jack Johnson need to be in the game with authentic styles because they are critical to the sport of boxing and the history. Maybe Round 4 made some new real fans of the sport, and they would enjoy fighting with these guys.

I forgot to mention styles. It would be cool if they had style presets maybe a "Brockton Blockbuster" style for creating Marciano, a "Money" style for creating Mayweather ect.

These are just some suggestions, there has to be a creative workaround for getting the un-signed boxers likenesses and styles in the game.

I personally doubt it. The best selling DLC ever, Modern Warfare 2's Stimulus Package, sold 3.5 million copies on its first week on sale on XBLM and PSN. While data is not available for any other weeks, the first week on sale is always the strongest week, with sales dropping exponentially thereafter. According to VGCharz.com, Modern Warfare 2 has sold 19.73 million copies to date. Even assuming the stimulus package doubled it's initial sales (a very generous estimate), that's only 35.47% of Modern Warfare 2's total sales. If a Legends Pack for Fight Night Round 4 was to be as popular with Champion users as the best selling DLC ever was with Modern Warfare 2 users, that's only 826660 sales, assuming people are willing to pay approximately $20 for four boxers.

Would you buy the DLC?

jus cause its titled legends pack who said it had to be four boxers?it could be 6 or 7 add more gear of course,couple new venues jazz it up not jus 4 boxers.add armstrong add a 160 bernard and roy etc.you know what im sayin? ea wouldnt jus put it out plain wit jus four boxers na it would have some more to it. and yes i would buy it jus because this is our sport im a support it till its over PAC you wouldnt buy it? tyson vs rock hell i would get a bottle call the fellas and run comp vs.comp games and bet louis ali dempsey frazier come on a million on the dlc easy. fight night is still selling maybe not cod but playability you cant stay away from the ring too long. WHITESHEEP COME HOME BRUH!! YOU TOO YOUNG TO RETIRE!

EA COULD MAKE A GRIP ON THE DLC.im not a wall street cat im a broad street cat and i know numbers well. give me some accurate figures on fnr4 and ill show you how easy money they could make, 1st we need a budget what kind of bread we workin wit? whats our limitations wit the pack? how far can we go? who else can we get at.and then what we talkin 20 bucks or what for the dlc? lets do it.we already got the first four in the pocket think about it yall it would be crazy.

im about to but a fresh copy of fnr4 any way its time.its like the chronic album or mobb deep the infamous or nas ill matic or wu tang enter the 36 CHAMBERZ feel me need a clean fresh copy! u too need a fresh copy lol.

This is how I see it for DLC boxers to move they have to have a uniqueness about them. If the DLC boxers do everything you see the boxer do like his movement, techniques, tendencies, etc;
People will buy them up. I know some people will say it's up to you to make the boxers fight like themselves, but what about when you fight against that boxer's AI? You understand what I'm saying?

id rather sell 125 thousand copies a week for two years instead of double platinum the first week and for two years you doin like 30 thousand.

throw in bob foster ezzard charles or sandy saddler or jersey joe walcott.saddler beat pep 3 out of 4.

I agree, unique styles for individual boxers would mean that every DLC fighter would bring something absolutely new to the game. Think of how fun it would be to have accurate styles for guys like Roy Jones, Wildred Benitez or Ray Leonard - guys who fight in a very individualistic (real word?) way.

I would pay $20+ for this

That's not how the games industry works. Most core games (except for the likes of Halo and Call of Duty), and by extension their game add-ons, always sell the majority of their copies in the first few weeks, followed by a sharp decline. The player base (and therefore those inclined to purchase) also steadily declines in a similar way until all but a small community of diehards have moved on to the next big thing.

For the record, I wouldn't purchase the pack of four boxers (which is what the topic is about), certainly not for the price being asked in the OP.

I feel you bruh but its titled legends pack.those four could headline it doesnt mean its only gonna be them 4. like i said give me numbers and a budget and you would see a platinum dlc pack period.
