For years, fight fans have long-awaited a new boxing video game. According to , Floyd Mayweather may be just the one to fulfill their dreams, following in the footsteps of Mike Tyson’s Punch Out!!. At the professional boxing star’s recent forty-first birthday celebration, Mayweatꦑher stated that he is already “working on” a title.

No further details were discussed in the brief video clip, other than the fact that Mayweather would have to have ownership in the video game’s release, stating that he would not be a part of EA’s fan-favorite boxing title, Fight Night, if a new installment within the series were ever to be released. This is really no surprise for anyone with knowledge of Mayweather’s business model and promotional endeavors, which have broꦬught in dollars b🍌y the truck load – those trucks likely being owned by Mayweather in some capacity, of course.

Although EA has seen success with its Fight Night series – the last of which being Fight Night Champion, released seven years ago by EA Canada – the company’s current combat sports-related focus resides in its latest release, UFC 3, which has maintainꦐed steady sales since its release last month.

It will be interesting to see what develops from this news, especially considering that it is coming directly from Mayweather, as the appeal of anything released or simply endorsed by him brings in money. In just over eight years, has netted over three hundred and fifty million dollars and has generated over one billion dollars in Pay-Per-View revenue for its sponsored fights. Mayweather’s apparel line, The Money Team, also continues to dominate within the world of athletic wear and branding. Possibly the most intriguing element is the fact that t🐲his ascent within the business world has continued to rise in spite of various legal battles that the retired boxer has encountered, ranging from tax evasion to domestic violence.

While any future installment of EA’s Fight Night continues to be nothing more than a pipedream filled with unconfirmed rumors, fans can at least hold onto a sliver of hope that any boxing game at all is potentially in the works. It is potentially even more exciting, since almost everything that the Mayweather brand touches turns to gold. If the game does become a reality, we’ll continue to hold onto the hope that Conor McGregor is an unlockable character, so we can digitally relive the circus that t💯ook place f💮or their August 2017 bout.
