need some boxing help

[murphyx500]

OK. This is going to sound lame, but I make games, and I have come up with a good boxing card game, however, I am having difficulty on getting the stats right for each boxer.

So I was hoping people could name me a boxer, then give me several statistics, in this manner:

NAME, WEIGHT CLASS, then
-Power (either NOT THERE, AVERAGE, GOOD or GREAT),
-hand speed (ranging from 1-5),
-chin (the abliity to take a single punch, either as GLASS, BAD, AVERAGE, GOOD or GRANITE),
-durability (the ability to take damage over the course of a bout, on a scale from (1-5), and finally
-heart (the ability to rally after being hurt, get up from knockdowns and so on), on a scale of 1-5.

When doing this, please make sure you compare their stats to boxers in the same weight class, for example don't say Hatton has no power compared to Tyson.

Also, what sort of style do they have, keeping it basic: boxer, swarmer or puncher.

Great. I didn't even think of the Prince. Hopefully I'll get some more replies soon.

I forgot Hamed's style - Hands down switch hitter

If you were doing a Top Trumps kind of game, wouldn't it be better to use a scale of 10 or 100, to avoid having too many matches with an equal #?

It is not a top trumps game.

[murphyx500]

It is not a top trumps game. The player has control over the punches thrown, but I need the stats the make it realistic, for example, when Tyson hits Ali with a counterhook, does is knock him down? Then the stats will come into play.

The stats u've given Charlie Z would work quite realistically actually, the result would mean he gets knocked clean out by a single jab from the weakest boxer in the game, and stands no chance of getting up.

You beat me too it. DAMN.

[murphyx500]

Bump? I know it is lame, but I thought while helping me, it would turn into a good discussion about comparisons of boxers skills and physical attributes. It is not about their ring smarts and strategy, as that is what the player decides in the game. I'm hoping however, that by having realistic attributes, the educated player will see that behaving like the real life counterpart offers them the best chance of success.

For example, I've already made Tyson and Ali, and If Tyson tried to fight on the outside by jabbing and throwing straight punches, he would get beaten to the punch every time, so his strategy would have to be to swarm ali, and hit him with concussive hooks and uppercuts. With the stats I've given them, this is how both boxers would behave if the game were to be played by educated boxing fans. (BTW, the Tyson I've used is the prime Tyson, where he threw combos and was more of a swarmer than a puncher).
