EA Sports considering bringing Fight Night games back after Eddie Hearn plea to software giants
BOXING promoter Eddie Hearn has called on video games giant EA Sports to bring back old classic Fight Night.
The last incarnation of the legendary platform game was back in 2011, with the Fight Night Champion title.
This was available on PS3, Xbox 360 and iOS devices.
Back in October last year Matchroom boss Hearn tweeted to EA Sports to re-release that popular boxing game.
And he has confirmed that the software giant has since responded that they are "looking into" his request.
Speaking to ThaBoxingVoice, Hearn said: "Because every time I tweet about it [Fight Night], it goes crazy!
"I wrote to EA Sports, 'Do you realise how many questions I get about Fight Night games - let me bring it back?'
"[They respond with] 'Oh, we're looking at it, we're looking at it.'
"So, EA Sports, if you're watching, or any big-game developer, we're here.
"Fight Night, let's go. It's going to be number one!"
