Now, Mayweather is seeming to follow in Tyson’s footsteps, with the creation of his own unique boxing game that will have to stand the test against ‘Mike Tyson’s Punch Out’ when it comes to gamers all over the globe.
Not Another ‘Fight Night’
Apparently, regarding Floyd Mayweather’s news about his progress on his new video game, there were rumors speculated that he was going to make it similar to that of the ‘Fight Night’ video games that came out not too long ago. However, at his birthday party, Mayweather disputed these rumors up front, saying that he needed to have ‘ownership’ of his own game, and wanted it to be a unique experience for gamers. We are sure this is making those gamers all over even more excited for the game to make its debut, to see all of the excellence and differentiation that it will have from all of the other video games to come out over the years.
