I mean, seriously, how do you fall from worldwide icon, become...

    By Brian Sipple George Foreman once said: “Boxing is like jazz. The better it is, the less people appreciate it.” Boxing video games have definitely come a long way since the days of Mike Tyson’s Punch Out!!, yet the presumption among many in the industry is that they are a dying breed.
