TITLE BOUT II HEAVYWEIGHT DIVISION BEING REDONE. HERE'S WHY!
THE RETIARIUS: was patterned after a fisher, with his net and trident and knife, instead of a pole and bait.
​
There are almost 200 heavyweight boxers who have cards (see Master Card List under the "More" tab). These boxers were the first boxers rated for the revived Title Bout II game. However, that was four years ago. During that time, changes have been made to the tables, new formulas have been developed for more accuracy, and various components of the game have been tweaked. While the current Heavyweight card set is fine as is, there are reasons for a redo:​1. The formulas have changed in various areas. While the current heavyweight cards still function quite well (in my biased opinion), they remain so now and in the future because the ratings for each division are relative to that division. But redoing the heavyweights aligns them with the other card sets.​2. New boxer cards will be included in the set to enhance the value. Several notable names have yet to be carded. That doesn't mean the new fighters will be champions or strong contenders, but they either were involved in an important bout or will add depth to the division. Official cards for Nikolai Valuev, Lee Oma, Ernie Schaaf, Kirk Johnson, Wayne Bethea, Guz Dorazio, Harry Bobo, and Don Cockell will be among the new fighters available for use.​SETS 1 - 5 of the Premium Heavyweights are now available.
One of the features of the new card design are the Gold cells found under Fatigued. The Gold cells indicate a negative change from the starting numbers, indicating a diminished rating. You can see with a glance the effect of running out of Endurance and having to use the Fatigued side of the card.
Other improvements can be scene in the amount of data on the actual boxer card: height, weight, and reach; as well as the boxer's place of birth, and a "Status" cell that describes the boxer in a single glance.
