I've mentioned some of these before, but they seem to have fallen out of the posts, so I'll try again:

1) Soviet fighters (pro or Olympics) -- the "nationality" listing was fixed but not the "born-in" listing. Yet this may even be the more important one. Any "Russian" (&c.) fighter born prior to 1991 was Soviet and only became Russian (or Georgian, or Ukrainian, &c.) after the fall of the Empire. Since most pro boxers have to be more than eighteen years old (depending on jurisdiction), it still would be hard to find an Eastern European who was not formally part of the Soviet system. This apparently is a simple plug-in.

2) The manual refers to a "popularity bias" among judges (at page 50) but elsewhere does not include it (see page 37). It should be added.

3) For those of us who still use the once common two judges/referee as scorers, referee biases also need to be added.

4) I've noticed that managers are given only one opportunity per round to switch to cover-up strategy, when killer instinct kicks in, and this is something of an irritant. The opportunity might pop up after a big punch which does not result in a knockdown, and some of us only have a fighter make the switch after an actual knockdown. Then, if there is a knockdown, the opportunity is lost. Ability to switch over should become available whenever KI kicks in for an opponent.

5) I'll second Ice Tea's suggestion that female images be made available for the fight screen. And that there be more control over the bout log's seeming indifference at times re gender.

6) A nice little venue not on the current list: Grey's Armory in Cleveland, Ohio (former home of the Cleveland Greys, one of the last of the private quasi-state militias in the U.S.), Last I checked, it was still current.

7) When, for some reason, I must change or remove a bout in or from history, I would liek to see it completely changed or removed. Currently, changing a date in a way which leapfrogs the result over other results does not alter the cumulative history. It's a minor thing, but if simple to fix, it ought to be.

8) I stillrun into freezing when I enter data for a new fighter. To avoid losing too much, I have to save only a screen at a time, then completely exit, then come back in. Again, an irritant more than a problem. But, it is annoying.
