Would it possible to keep the result of a fight hidden until you had finished reading it? As it is you check recent events and it tells you whether you have won or lost; surely this ruins the suspense? I think it would be better if it just said fighter a vs fighter b and you then clicked on this to read the fight and find out whether you won or lost...Maybe this page could come up when you log into your gym?

Good point. I specifically made fight results to display like I did for suspense and then ruined it by stating the result. I will change it. |

This would definitely be nice! The other online sports sim that I actively play at this time does that, and I use it constantly. Spoilers take a lot of the drama out of results.

this is easy. Starting next turn you will only see result, but no recap.
So something like TKO3, or UD without any indication on who won. No more than that.

It's better now than it was, but I was thinking today when I was looking at my recent events that it's a little annoying not to be sure what fighter's result I'm clicking on. Plus, knowing that it ended in round X is still a little bit of a spoiler... My suggestion for the best way to do it: On the Home tab under recent events the link should read "Road Boxer vs. Home Boxer" with no info about the fight's result. Not who won, not how they won, and not the number of rounds. On the fight summary page, there should be a link for all 12 rounds of the fight, REGARDLESS of whether it went the distance or not. That way you don't know, for instance, that there was a knockout in round three, until you pull up the third round and see the knockout happen! Then rounds 4-12 could just show as blank if you clicked on them. This structure would allow for the most excitement when reviewing fights, in my opinion. Of course I have no idea whether implementation would be easy or not, but that's why I'm not a dev  |

Can be done of course, but not as easy as what I have done so far. I can add boxer names at least easy enough. I agree about fight output, would be nice to have them all show 12 rounds. I will put it on my to do list.

How does it look now?

Yeah, I figured fighter names in the link would be the easy part, while tweaking the fight output could be more problematic. It's certainly not the end of the world to know how many rounds the fight lasted before you go through, but if you could find a way to tweak it so that you never knew, as you clicked from round to round, whether or not the fight was about to conclude that would add a nice dramatic flair.
Something for the back burner, methinks.

Looks nice! Having my boxers in bold is a nice touch that I didn't even think to request  |

Had to scratch the bold  It will just show you your boxer name and if he fought home or away. |
