The problem is, though, that the much-loved title recently celebrated its 10th birthday - having been released back in March 2011.
Boxing fans have been demanding a successor for many years now. However, despite many rumoured projects, no comparable boxing game has made it on to the shelves since.
Developer Steel City Interactive is set to change this with its new contender, Esports Boxing Club. Alpha gameplay footage has been released of the title - and it looks absolutely stunning.
The short teaser video features the likes of Josh Warrington, Conor Benn and the legendary Arturo Gatti engaging in some of the most realistic-looking combat that we have ever seen in a boxing video game.
Thanks to improvements in motion capture technology, the fighters glide around the ring naturally, as opposed to all moving in the same predetermined fashion.
It genuinely does seem like you could be watching a fight on television, rather than playing a video game.
The key behind such flowing action lies in the mechanics behind the title.
Rather than just being a straight-up 'button basher', Esports Boxing Club will give players an opportunity to master the more intricate aspects of the sport.
Ringcraft, movement, backfoot combat and feints are all elements of the game that players will need to master in order to become truly great at it.
There will also be more freedom when it comes to picking punches than we've ever seen before, with a unique punch-control system.
The game's corner work system is another promising feature, with coaches having to work with their fighters in between rounds to try and strategise their way to success.
As the title is still in the initial stages of development, more detail is expected to be added to the game over the coming months.
There will be no shortage of real-life boxers to play as either, with the game boasting an impressive roster of fighters.
There are 65 licensed boxers already signed up for the game. From modern-day fighters such as Joe Joyce, Oleksandr Usyk, Terence Crawford and Alexander Povetkin to legends like Roy Jones Junior, Ricky Hatton and Frank Bruno - Esports Boxing Club has every angle covered.
It is early days, but Esports Boxing Club represents an exciting prospect for gamers who have long wanted a new virtual fight fix.
News Now - Sport NewsTAMPA, Fla. (AP) — After carrying the Montreal Canadiens to the Stanley Cup Final with sublime goaltending, Carey Price stopped just about everything he saw in Game 1 against the Tampa Bay Lightning.
The defending champions lead the series because they made sure Price didn’t see very much and his teammates saw plenty of the rough stuff, shoved and banged into the boards and ice. Brendan Gallagher was left bloody, and the Canadiens were left beaten.
The Lightning created traffic in front of Price, scored two deflection goals and outmuscled the smaller Canadiens in a 5-1 rout Monday night that showed what it takes to crack Montreal’s defensive wall. Tampa Bay flipped the script and did much of what the Canadiens’ previous opponents couldn’t, creating a potential blueprint to win a second consecutive championship.

“We have a game plan, and we have a recipe,” Lightning captain Steven Stamkos said. “And if we go out there, we believe that if we do the right things that we’re going to get rewarded for it and we have so far to get to this point and I thought we did that tonight.”
The Lightning put on a clinical performance similar to what the Vegas Golden Knights did in their series opener last round against the Canadiens — and they will need more of the same.
It was clear from the drop of the puck that coach Jon Cooper’s team wanted to deliver body blows early and often.
Mikhail Sergachev sent 5-foot-9, 183-pound Canadiens forward Brendan Gallagher to the ice early. When Gallagher got into it with much larger Victor Hedman, Blake Coleman shoved him into the net, dislodging the net and his helmet.
In the third period, Gallagher took a shot up high from Coleman and was taken down by Sergachev. He got up with his forehead dripping with blood and left the ice.
The rough stuff between and after the whistles set an early tone for the series, and the plan of attack to take Price’s eyes away worked like a charm. When his teammates made defensive mistakes like leaving Steven Stamkos wide open or letting Tyler Johnson get in on net all alone, Price was there to flash a big glove or pad save.
But he couldn’t stop what he couldn’t see.
Price shuffled in the crease all night trying to get in better position to see around and through big Lightning forwards and his own defenders, which was something he didn’t have to do as much in earlier rounds of the plaoffs. The first three goals against him were Erik Cernak’s stick deflection, Blake Coleman’s shot that banked in off Yanni Gourde’s left skate and Ben Chiarot putting the puck in his own net.
Price allowed five goals for the first time this postseason.
“That’s the key I think: going on the inside and driving the net, taking his eyes away,” Gourde said. “That’s the key.”
The Lightning did a good job studying what the Canadiens did in previous rounds — rope-a-doping, relying on Price to make saves and turning simple mistakes into big goals. Learning from a turnover-prone loss to the New York Islanders that made them play a Game 7 in the semifinals, they gave Montreal little to work with to turn the tables.
When the Canadiens did get good looks, goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy turned aside captain Shea Weber off the rush and flashed his glove to rob forward Josh Anderson.
“We just wanted to make sure we were on top of them all over the ice,” Cooper said. “We felt that if we were on top of them, we could snuff some of those out and fortunately we did and a couple times they got some breaks and our goalie had to make some big-time saves to keep the score what it was.”
The only blemish against Vasilevskiy and the Lightning was a double deflection pinball goal.
Even that didn’t derail the Lightning from playing the kind of physical game they need to in this series. It’s early, but the physical toll already started to add up for the Canadiens.
“They’re a big physical team, but it goes both ways when you’re trying to play physical,” Chiarot said. “It wears both sides down, so we’re trying to lay some physicality on them and see how they respond.”
Based on what the Golden Knights found out after winning Game 1 against Montreal and the Winnipeg Jets and Toronto Maple Leafs discovered falling behind in their series, the response is coming from the Canadiens. The question is whether the Lightning found a script they can repeat with success as the final unfolds.
“The series is long from over,” Cooper said. “There is definitely room for improvement because I think we have more to give. A team that’s lost Game 1 is definitely going to give us a push and we need to be better than we were.”
