Looks like I have my first fight vs a 'human' gym. Dylan Park my newest signing against hotshot rookie Ryan Vincent from Dave's chop house. May the best fighter win

You might be up against one of my fighters soon in the Bantamweight division if you keep hold of Dylan Park. I currently train the #1 UK fighter

Ooh interesting you just signed that #1. I see you benefited from a PPV undercard fight, your gym got moved to average size overnight I see you also signed the #1 cruiser and have the #2 cruiser. Clever strategy, get one into European level and you will be making massive profits. You'r probably paying >1000 a week and they will usually earn 100k a fight at that level at least.

5 users from 180+ did benefit big from the bug. box2glory.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=bugs&action=display&thread=83My fault there. As far as controlling #1 and #2 - it is clever. I am not sure if that is something that I feel good about though. Should champion be forced to skip boxers that are owned by same gym for title defence?What do you think?

I have 2 #1 fighters and 1 #2 and pay <£1900 a week for the 3 combined. I dont think it's too bad.

I certainly wont be giving Rhys Arthur an easy ride if he has to fight Thomas Banks. He wants to be at the top he has to prove he's worthy. I thought about holding both fighters and figured if i could get hold of them and have one promoted to EU division and keep the other in the top 3 of the UK one, that i'd have a good base to build the gym up from.

I think it would be best to make it in future so same gym fighters can't fight each other. I certainly wouldn't want two guys from my own gym going against each other, I would set one to towel early.
Although if a rule change like that is announced then there should be a grace period of say 1 year before it comes into force, as people like fergsuk who signed fighters beforehand wouldn't have known.

I don't mind at all that other people got the money, if anything it's pretty cool and helps test the higher levels of the game. I just wish I had got some would save a lot of time spent working with bum fighters

Nahh you'll be fine - and if a fighter is losing you money just fire his ass. There are plenty of unemployed fighters and usually you can negotiate them right down from their initial salary request, especially if they are your hometown fighters. I've fired at least two guys already from my gym as they sucked and I didn't think I could do anything with them

You'll get that button within 24 hours. You're doing a cracking job. If you need feedback on anything, i'm happy to give it.

Let me know if that Reject button works for you. Should be able to clear away the unwanted offers.
