Fight Night Games Ranked 

How do you rank the Fight Night Series?

round 3 is my personal fav even after going back. I like the tactician approach it has. You can get aggressive tho in career mode early on and really bully the AI even on hard.

Glad someone made a list for this series. Thought about this recently.

I love your take on Fight Night Round 3 being underrated. That's my favorite out of the whole series. Fight Night Round 2 is my second favorite. Great venues, great roster, etc. Champion comes in at #3 for me, and I didn't really care for Round 4 or the original Fight Night. All versions should have Tyson and Lennox Lewis, though.

Dude this was a great video and you were super well versed at the mechanics of each game. And your voice isn’t boring to death like some people have sometimes. Your channel has so much potential, keep at it👍🏽👍🏽

Fight Night Round 3 🥊🥊

Best part of those early Fight Night games was teeing off on your opponent once you knock them out. I loved knocking them out against the ropes and hitting them with a 6-piece on the way down lol. Great video.

Champion got to be my favorite. So many great memories playing that. But I cant help but to think you was stoned making this video. Lol

Round 3 the best fight mechanics. Champion graphics, story and modes.

Love your vids,bro

Thanks for doing this.

I love so much FN series. 2004 and Round 3 are extremely funny, love it

great video bro fight night 2004 definitely a classic

From someone who's just played R2,R3 and Champions it's a big mix between those three for just 1st place. On one hand I absolutely love Champions face-scan so I can add some weirder fighters, but I like R3/2's sliders for custom boxers too, actually giving me the ability to create some freakshows. Although I don't like how the 360 version of Round 3 changed trunks and hair which were good on the Original Xbox version, some trunks I prefered the look of on last gen. I found Round 3 has nice pacing, from experience with R2 heavyweights feel fine, but featherweights feel so quick I almost think I'm watching the game on triple speed when they walk. While Champions also has the pacing down fine. I kinda like the simplified controls on Champions since I'm just frankly terrible at the 6 direction blocking/countering in R2/R3. And Round 3 has got to be the winner in the presentation department, I just love how boxers change poses when selected instead of being static images on Champion. And especially the matchup loading screen showing the two with their names in their fight ready pose

Thanks for doing such an enjoyable and useful review! Is the 1st Person view available in Round 4 and Champion?

Been playing 04 for the first time since I was a kid and i forgot how fun this game was

Fight Night Round 2 is personally my favorite Fight Night, but 4 sure gives it a run for it’s money.

Aye Im glad someone ranked these! I started going back and playing a lot of these and man they are so much fun, i Know what u mean u can tell the differences between the games and how the mechanics are. I played the most of Fight night round 3, but they are all really fun in their own way! Nice video review!!!

2004's rag doll animation was just hilarious 😂 the opponent is jelly and about fall but the punches keep him up 14:47 HAHAHA LMAO

It kind of pained me at first to see round 3 at the bottom, but I’m glad that you said that it’s underrated. Obviously I’ve said it’s my favorite fight night game, and that I love enough to own the ps2 and ps3 versions, that’s how hardcore I am about fight night round 3.I have found that those who didn’t like it at first tend to appreciate it more every time they play it whether it be the 360/ps3 version or original Xbox/ps2 version. One thing I love about the fight night games is that everyone seems to have a different ranking. A good buddy of mine thinks round 2 is the best, my brother thinks round 4 is the best, and obviously I love round 3, but I just love that everyone has a different favorite and every reason I hear is a valid reason for it being their favorites.

From round 3 to round 4 was a few years in between and a new developer team pretty much round 4 was their first game which is why it looked cartoony.

Champion clearly looks better than round 4 that game is still beautiful

I’m a huge boxing and boxing game fan and I totally agree with the top two picks. They should just bring back 2004 and fn 4 put it back online again. Almost seems like a conspiracy theory that in 2022, we still don’t have a new boxing game! Just give us back the ones you already made dang it! Their both very solid and accomplished boxing games that like you said stand the test of time.

damn, round 3 is the only one i've played so seeing at the bottom was rough because i thought it was fun as hell. though, this vid is making me consider picking up 2004 on emulator

The punching in the original fight night looks so beautiful

I wish I played Fight Night Champion more back then but like you said was already so many awesome games out at the time

I respect you for putting 2004. We need a remastered 2004 for 2024

bro Round 3 was the only fight night version i had on my PSP! rn im currently downloading the champion version on my pc with a ps3 emulator cuz i just wanna have those nostalic and fun memories back. college is stressing me rn lmao.

Me and boys was going crazy with them stung haymakers

Bro this video is amazing, i feel like if a friend was talking to me of the topic and it wasnt only a video, great video dude, keep it up!

Fight night round 2 for me had by far the best career mode with the ranking.system and super fun to play

We need a fight night for PS5 and Xbox series X

Career mode is the most important aspect for me. So far, nothing comes close to Fight Night Round 3 on PSP...You can have 3 fights in the same month

R2/3 and Champion are my favs.

#1 Fight Night Round 2 (9.4) #2 Fight Night Champion (7.7) #3 Fight Night Round 4 (7.6) #4 Fight Night 2004 (8.1) #5 Fight Night Round 3 PS2 version (7.5)

Appreciated the video, good memories. Gameplay Rd4 particular the blocking strength and it wasn't automatic. Loved the training in 3 and 4

Overhand and Undisputed discords brought me here. Definitely agree, 2004 is probably the best boxing game made to this day and that’s odd considering the power we have in more recent console generations. It had the savagery, speed, and impact on the punches that developers these days can’t seem to emulate

Yo the ragdolls had me 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I miss it like crazy

Fight night round 3 had the best engine

Fight night rd 3 was my favourite...the punch ststem by far the best. And really felt like you could bring your own tactics to a fight rather being forced to play a certain way

Fight night 2004 Wil always be my favorite boxing game of all time

Fight Night 2004 my favorite fight night game .

in fight night champion is there a way to turn off the camera shake everytime a punch is landed? thats very annoying, i heard you can do it by putting it in simulation mode, but isnt simulation mode for the ai only matches and not for a real person playing?

I'm 51 now and went to the city of Hickory N.C. a month ago to get me some more games for my ole trusty ps2. Got my splinter cell games and dang if they didn't have but one Fight Night 2004 in , that I grabbed with cat like reflexes and yeah it's just the bees knees freind.....WOOOOW !!!!!! THE 😄🤣👌

Round 4 was 🐐 because you had to fight solely with the analog and that made controls more realistic

5:08 brooo you can’t forget the music in this one i enjoyed this one’s music as a kid

Fight night champion had very poor fighter cuts and damage, the graphics were amazing but the blocking from the opponent would get annoying

2004, i played soooooo much of that game

Looking forward to round 5 🤭

I remember getting stunned the first time lol it was intense and I learned to do it to them and it was awesome lol best boxing games ever

Idk why I remember playing fight night round 3 and I remember the controls standing back up was a lot like fn champion. I was upset when I saw the left and right joy sticks 🤦🏽‍♂️

Round 3 was a boxing fans boxing game. Best graphics. Best simulation. Best combat. The perry system was to this day, the best. The slower pace is what makes the game so much fun, tactically.

Round 2 looking good.

Fight night Champion is rank #1 - Fight night 2004 - rank # 2 Fight night Round 4 -rank # 3 Fight night Round. 2 - rank # 4 Fight night Round 3 - rank # 5 Knockout Kings Don King Prize Fighters The block is important in real Boxing.

Can you please do a video ranking the career mode of all games cause I feel like Champion has the best career mode

Loved round 3 for the cuts and fixing the cuts

Which fight night game was it when they would have a press conference in the career mode and you could punch your opponent during the press conference?

for me round 3 and champion are my favorites 🔥🔥🔥

One of the reasons I’m hyped for that new boxing game is that it has the rag doll physics for knockouts which always makes a game 1000x better, instead of repetitive canned animations. Any game where I can knockout someone better be physics based as their body flops on the mat. Great vid though

Seeing this now after undisputed beta came out, wonder what you think about that game?

“Fight night round champion” 😂 hell yeah brother 🤘

Champion should have been No 1

Who tf is Robert Duran i only know Roberto Duran🤣 nice content btw

Fight Night Around 3 in psp was the best especially when you just want to beat up lightweight boxers with Ali. I spam the haymaker and enjoy seeing the busted face of my opponent.

My favourity was FNR3. Yes, it was slower but more tactical in some way.

8:25 This kind of shit is not even in any big games today! Looks incredible. To think it's such an old game and still groundbreaking. Wish this has set a standard as opposed to being an anomaly.

I never played fight night, but I'm planning on buying one for my ps3 or 360. Which one should I get?

I agree with I love fight night 2004

EA needs to make a new fight night for console and pc.

I personally like 3 cuz thats the 1 i grew up on but i always played the ps2 version and never knew there was a ps3 version so ima get to experience tht now but no hate to the rating.🙏🤝

Love em all, couldn't play round 4, they fixed it with champion

Loved fight night

I haven't played Fight Night Round 3. I only played the old Boxing Games on PS1 and later on XBox360 Fight Night Round 4 and Fight Night Champion. Of those Fight Night Round 4 still is my absolute favourite. I only wished the career mode would be better. (But that' EA... . Many EA sport games could be so much better if they would invest a little more work into single player career mode, but sadly that's just not what EA wants... .) Maybe I should try to get FN Round 3 for a few bucks and give it a try. But I always have been satified with FN Round 4 and I am still playing it nowadays. I don't even know for how many hours I have been playing this game over the years but they are many, I mean really many, many hours and careers. I even created fighters with photographies of my face and downloaded many real life fighters made by fans. With the right sliders FN Round 4 in my opinion still is the best "modern" (although how old now? 16 years?) boxing simulation I know and the graphics hold up well until today. Fight Night Champion looked great and the story mode was entertaining but in my opionion gameplay and frame rate weren't good at all and much too Arcade-style while being not tactical or realistic at all in my opinion. As the last first promising attempt on a boxing simulation for years seemingly was given up on I have lost some hope to ever get a really great and realistic boxing game with a really good career mode. That's sadly not how publishers work anymore as the most money is in online gaming and pay to win titles.

For me Champion, Round 4, 04, Round 3 Champion to me has the best balance, as well as Round 4.. the customization for those was weaker sadly, along with the training modes, loved the implementation of cut man& round based performance to address what we wanted to take care of (stamina, health, block meter)

2004 and round 3 are my favorites

I was a Knockout Kings fan

If 4 had parrying it would be dope. 3 is my favorite.

In all my years of playing fight night 2004, several details I’ve never experienced. Like the names on the trunks, glitched hair , no eyebrows, no tattoos.. Never knew the fix for that but would’ve been nice

Fight night champion is the best sure. I love all Fight night but FNC is sure no1.

Round 4 was the best without a doubt to me

Fight Night Round 3 And Knockout Kings 2003 are my favorite

Bruh this was my lineup and to this day 2004 is the best they had everything right the first time speed and power with the combos

2004 was my favorite the round 4 is my 2nd best

Round 2 all day

Saying Robert Duran instead of Roberto just feels illegal to me idk why 😭

Champion wins for me because the blocking makes u better. Makes u set up yo power punches to get past blocks.

@14:55 I’m crying 😂😂😂 he was letting him have it

I agree with you 💯 percent. 2004 is the best boxing game period

Fight round 3 on the PSP was the best for me.

Tbh I’ve never played any fight night game which one would be the best to pick up?? Torn between round 4, 2004, or champion, help pls all the ones I’ve named look fuckin dope man

I instantly stopped watching this video because I came across something I disagree with. Round 4 objectively has the best and most fluid boxing. Much more accurate to boxing on tv than 2004 is.

damn 7 months ago this still pretty early ig

dang lol, FNR 3 was my favorite lol

2004 is definitely my favorite. The game play got too technical and slow in all of the other ones I played.

I wish I can play round 4 theres an error or something its says disk error and its not on xbox one

Gotta love Robert duran

Try fight night round 3 psp version, i know its not really good at graphic, but the animation is absolutely won to all that game on the video, AFTER fight night 2004

Imagine Fight Night having GTA 4 physics...

Champion is the best. Still slaps on Series X. Champion mode was entertaining but Isaac Frost was so nasty

Round 3 all day.
