I have so many great memories playing Fight Night 4, it was actually one of the reasons I picked up fitness. I remember thinking "wait..why am I sitting here training my boxer but I'm not doing it in real life?" lol. I enjoy both honestly but I've been playing Champion more because it's on the current Xbox.
Which you think was better Round 4 or Champion? The collision detection was so good on these games seeing their cheeks flap and whatnot. UFC 3 is OK but UFC 4 is straight trash
Round 4 was buttery smooth 60fps. Really the only thing that bothers me is that champion targets 30fps instead, but Champion is still the goat to me. The story mode makes you wonder why we never had something like it sooner in the series.
Round 4 was better. Champion was buggy with a broken block system, forced misses, broken stamina, terrible footwork, and the online appealed to sidestep uppercut spammers, backstep straight spam and runners. Round 4 felt like you were boxing.
This x 100. FN4 was the last great combat sports game that provided an excellent competitive platform with counters to multiple strategies and real life approaches being effective. Champion was left as a competitive mess being very exploitable, unbalanced, and unrealistic. It also had far more performance issues with frame drops and improper command reads such as the constant weaving when you didn’t push anything.
The thing I like most about FNC is that they did in-fighting so well. It didn't feel like there was an invisible force field between your two fighters.
I loved the way to throw Haymakers From Fight Night 2-4. Then champions made the power alternator button. Which was fine, but the older way I thought was better
For clarification, (because the internet). The difficulty was lowered, and stamina thresholds were increased in order to showcase the animations thoroughly. So the comparisons can be made between which one looks more cartoony/real. Figure it would be obvious to see with continuous punches being unblocked. Thanks for watching yall!
Never owned or played round 4 but after going back to champion and realizing how fast the punching is and much it just feels like a counterpunch first to get tired game bothered me now seeing round 4 I’m ready to get back into boxing games got my ps3 ready! Thanks for the video man! Keep it up
7:06-7:45 That Stamina Regen....... Exactly why Champion is for Haymaker button spammers. After the Patch it went straight into the Garbage Can. Round 4 Takes Skill with Counters, Blocks, Openings and Leans to reward you. Champion is the Casuals Game, while Round 4 is more for a Boxing Purist.
Exactly, Champion feels off. It's basically, punch, spam block, punch, spam block etc. Not need to lean or dodge because the meta is just block all the time and punch when you can. The block stamina in 4 made sure to avoid people spamming
Great video bro!!! I personally like Champion better, but 4 I like the defense way better and I like the fact it has a way better soundtrack and it got the Staples Center (my dream place to fight at as a pro). I love the fact 4 has the mini game in between corners, that’s where champion lacks, because it’s almost impossible to get your stamina back Overall I say Champion is the more polished and clean game, but I think 4 is better when it comes to small details
I just preferred 4 over champion for the fact that blocking has to be used strategically instead of spamming. Blocking in Champion reminds me of Riot shield in COD lol
fight night champions is one of the best graphically looking games especially when you keep in mind it was made in 2011. imo it looks better than the current ufc games thats why this game needs a remaster, new game or a release on the newer gen consoles
The games aesthetic is amazing, and it sucks to see games like UFC get boxers when we want a boxing game. A remaster would be dope, but it's backwards compatible. EA couldn't renew everyone's license either, so they would have to draw up new contracts and such. They are too greedy for that
The Fight Night Champ graphics are way better, taking in count that Round 4 is from 2009. I love both, but if I have to pick one... is going to be FN Champion
I currently have fight night round 4 but it’s hard to get a knockout. I played fight night champion and I was able to get a knockout multiple times than fight night round 4. I really like both games but everyone has a preference.
FNR4 is the best boxing game ever made. FN Champion was made more accessible for the casuals and that ruined it for me : auto blocking, fast weightless punches, no corner mini game etc. Just feels like a rock em sock em robots button masher. It had better graphics though.
FNC suffered big time on collision/hit detection... Sometimes (especially when Im loosing and need them to connect) my punches would go straight through my opponent 😡😡. If it wasn't for that no doubt I'd prefer Champion over 4. But as a result I'd have to give first place to round 4... I get pissed every time I play champion on a high difficulty because thats when it seems to happen the most.. Btw I have the Ps3 version.
The stamina system in champion is garbage I got people throwing 521 punches at me and losing no stamina but me just countering I’m losing more than them Ea pisses me off
played FNR4 demo while drinking with friends and got the game instantly when it came out, when i tested fight night champion it felt like a cheaper version of FNR4 so i didn't even buy it
I know people say fight night champion is overrated but the knockouts hits are so satisfying and punches feel like actual punches. Fnc4 has less detailed skin modeling with less sweat and muscle movements. I don’t care about footwork I care about a fun exiting boxing game. But in all fn games I feel like the KO recovery controls are flawed and are hard to control properly. Fn round 4 was the first one I played but I felt scammed out of money fn4 had frame rate problems and game glitches along with exploited controls while playing online. In MY opinion fnc captured the brutal fighting sports experience and that’s what I like.
I lean more toward FN4 because of the fighting mechanics in Champion remind me of Riot shields in COD. Champion looks better imo, and the gameplay is actually quite similar when you go back and forth. Champion does have an edge when it comes to backwards compatibility, but that block spam and lack of cutman mini game is why I prefer 4. Still, they're great games individually and can coexist. You excited for eSports Boxing club
@@IVSAKENSOUL sadly for esports boxing club I feel like it will released and be flawed af. Cause it’s not the same developers and because it looks like ufc 4. Which in my opinion is one of the worst game engine. I think there will be glitches and what not. I would rather have 2004 EA work on this. But we can’t do that
@@brutalikhzan5627think it depends how you play to be honest. I’m usually Ali vs Frazier and my fights have been pretty fluid. Most people assume the fights were real video footage when they’ve seen my screen at first glance whenever I was playing. Been a while since I played champion but whilst it was definitely faster I remember it feeling more arcadey. It played more like the Rocky games. Also round 4 was 1080p on ps3 whilst champion was 720p. I only wish I downloaded the additional fighters before EA closed their servers and stopped the ability to buy the fighter packs from the psn store. I mostly play Ali vs Frazier or Foreman but would of loved to of done Ali vs Liston and Holyfield vs Tyson. I think round 4 was the best fighting game they ever made.
Fight night round 4, even though round 3 is my favorite, round 4 has the best career mode, and the fighting is so smooth and fluid. Champion is fantastic, though the thing that bugs me about it is the repetitive blocking. I have more fun playing it with my dad than I do against the cpu
Bro what did 4 career mode have that was better than champion ? For the longest I felt champion had the best career mode due to being able to get injured and all the other little details like being too old and your body breaking down
Ups of FNC - Fast paced, fluid and fun gameplay - Great roster - Story Mode, Prison, Bare Knuckle Mode Downs of FNC - Game feels rockem sockem sometimes, and its a bit arcadey - No seperate block system - All american shorts are not available to CAFs Ups of FNR4 - More balanced gameplay - Has Arturo Gatti, Erik Morales, M.A. Barrera and James Toney, which FNC doesnt have - Has All American shorts available for CAFs Downs of FNR4 - Game feels slow and boring sometimes - HW Roster not as big as FNC - Doesnt have tattoo option for CAFs
Fight night round 4 is 60fps and that makes all the difference in the world. Own both but I found champion an unplayable arcade button mash with zero footwork or boxer control
Champion does feel weird. I think alot of the people who prefer Champion, haven't really went back and played the other Fight Nights. Round 4 was all around a jack of all trades. Champion watered down the strategy for the sake of trying to shoe horn Fight Night into EA's portfolio of yearly updated sports games.
@@IVSAKENSOUL they were going to there was an article about them doing so and then it never happened! I'm genuinely debating whether to buy an xbox 360 just so I can buy and play FNR4.

Pra mim o melhor fight night e o 4 ate msm pelos movimentos de lutas reais e etc... porém o fight night champion nao deixa a desejar tambem é um bom game. Mas o meu favorito sempre ,SEMPRE! vai ser o fight night 4 ♡
both great games but I definitely will choose 4 over Champion I might have to pull the 360 out just to buy 4 and play it again that is if the 360 still even work lol
HELP ME PLEASE. Today i played again Champion after 8 years, and im very fustrated cause there is no cuts and blood. Maybe the whole face damage system is missing. What happened? Is there any solution? I maxed out the boxer power and the damage sliders but it does not work. Help me please, im so disappointed. ( Game data and patch delete doesnt solve it)
@Colton Garrett Round 2 is dope, but I have a love/hate relationship with the Haymaker mechanics. I get the idea, but sometimes you just want to throw a barrage of punches lol. Round 2 is definitely top 5 tho
Between the two, I like the animations on FNC better, but the auto blocking is annoying. FNR4, feels more like you're boxing. I wish they would just combine both and make a damn Round 5 or Champion 2
@@IVSAKENSOUL yes animation of FNC was amazing but the gameplay was doo doo online especially FNR4 online play an good even when it came to creating your own player an fighting everyone was even better they should have combined the 2 game for a 5 fnc got cheesy an trash
Hahahahahahaha trust me, I feel the same way. I made this when I first started, but I put out a video about the History of Fight Night WITH commentary. Appreciate the feedback
It's all good. Had me laughing foreal tho lol I thought about redoing all of the side by sides I've done, since I've become better at editing. Also, adding commentary helps drastically.
Playing FNC rn online it’s super ass lol record is 166-87 wins but honestly I should have more wins at least 230+ everyone quits after you get passed the ridiculous jab /power punch spam . Then on top of that the game rewards idiotic spamming over actual boxing ! Normally I’m the more accurate fighter by 10% and I still lose the rounds because I’m not spamming haymakers 🤦🏾♂️literally I’m actually boxing and yet the game rewards the opponent because he spammed me forcing me to win most my matches by late game knockouts lmao. Also I know it’s a glitch or something these people do because for some odd reason face scans take unlimited damage and can drop your ass off with one punch so I avoid thoose all together 🤦🏾♂️i only play champion cuz I love boxing but I can’t do online anymore it’s awful
Bro your just a Lil trash if you can't beat these spammers no offense, there is always a way to counter it but you gotta practice, avoid the haymakers let them tire out don't just leave because you think everyone is a spammer. Next thing you know your leaving every game you lose, unfair.
I can't really decide. The thing is that.. both games don't represent the sport very good. FNR4 - has high, low block - the character moves better, in FNC it seems like it has delay. But... you can hit your oponnent a lot in the head and it almost has no damage Working the body doesn't seem to do much, they implemented that sistem in FNC, where it does drain the oponent stamina. I know it does drain a little but it s to innefective. If you are an outside fighter, counter puncher... it somehow drains your stamina more than your oponnent. Counter punching window is a joke which I think in online it would be a mess.. same with the side stepping in FNC Punches are slow and stiff, the power punches are like from a different game because they look sooooo arcady :)))) Flash ko's are veeeeryyy rare, a lot of times I hit my oponent in the head and it should be a flash ko in reality buuut... nope, not in this game FNC on the other hand... has more flash ko's, you can take advantage of counter punching, punching the body and it s also faster and the animations don't feel so... kinda broken or stiff. But it's too brutal to represent the reality also. Also it is easier to spam in FNC If they would put the high/low block, character movement, it would be the best. And also.. the moving from side to side could be spammed pretty easily... For me it would be FNC because how I play it's kinds more representative in FNC, I play outside with counter punches. I tried to play the same in FNR4 a lot of times but.. it doesn't really work, the counter window makes it horrible... a jab in the block gives the oportunity for my oponent to have that 2 3 seconds counter punch :)))) Forgot to mention that the bots in FNC are spamming a lot the body which again is... bad
Lol if u button mash in champion it's cus u suck. Coming from ufc and playing rouhd 2-4 I liked it and the stick is fine for once ur adjusted... But the button controls and stick together are so much better depending on what combo u want. If u button mash in a Fighting game, there's something called mortal combat 🤷🏻♂️ end that's not button mashinng when u see good people play play and know the combos. But for sure fight night champion isn't a button masher 🤣🤣 if u know how to use both.....
Champion, but they play extremely different from another. Champion feels like Round 4, and Round 3 feels reminiscent of Round 2 with updated visuals and slower fighting.
Have ea been updating the latest fight night for xbox one? Cause characters like Joshua, fury and Justin Bieber have been added. I wasn't sure if they were user mods or if ea just added them in for fun.
@@IVSAKENSOUL Well actually Im new to the franchise, I started playing champion like three weeks ago. I was thinking about getting round 4 cuz Some people say its better than champion in terms of gameplay, Whats ur opinion on this?
Round 4 feels more like a boxing game, while Champion is more like a fighting game. I prefer 4. The auto blocking in Champion is annoying too, because it's basically cheese.
Honestly, I'd have to go and play them to get a feel for the footwork. They feel very similar, but that could be because I was focusing on the punches. I did miss more punches do to movement in Champion tho. I'd say getting Round 4 is a good idea imo. It's a classic, and it's one of the best boxing games ever. It's a win win.
This is still to this day the best boxing game. I have my doubts about fight club surpassing it. Especially after seeing recent clips of it. I thought games would evolve more than they have. We still have mostly rag doll physics in 2022. Graphics take president over gameplay these days.
I think that might be because I had Champions visual settings on Cinematic mode, so it looks faded. I might do a second side by side video since I've learned so much since that video.

This x 100. FN4 was the last great combat sports game that provided an excellent competitive platform with counters to multiple strategies and real life approaches being effective.

both great games but I definitely will choose 4 over Champion I might have to pull the 360 out just to buy 4 and play it again that is if the 360 still even work lol
The graphics on 4 are better , punches on Champion are too snappy.
The punches sound like bomgos.
FN4 was the best hands down, still to this day. FNC was a step back.
HELP ME PLEASE. Today i played again Champion after 8 years, and im very fustrated cause there is no cuts and blood. Maybe the whole face damage system is missing. What happened? Is there any solution? I maxed out the boxer power and the damage sliders but it does not work. Help me please, im so disappointed. ( Game data and patch delete doesnt solve it)
Which Fight Night is YOUR favorite?
@Iceman Cometh yeeessssss, the fighting in that game was so satisfying, and the knockouts were funny af
@Colton Garrett Round 2 is dope, but I have a love/hate relationship with the Haymaker mechanics. I get the idea, but sometimes you just want to throw a barrage of punches lol. Round 2 is definitely top 5 tho
Fn4 online was better
Between the two, I like the animations on FNC better, but the auto blocking is annoying. FNR4, feels more like you're boxing. I wish they would just combine both and make a damn Round 5 or Champion 2
@@IVSAKENSOUL yes animation of FNC was amazing but the gameplay was doo doo online especially FNR4 online play an good even when it came to creating your own player an fighting everyone was even better they should have combined the 2 game for a 5 fnc got cheesy an trash
graphics and animation wise, FNC is much better. Animation is a big thing for me and FNC wins that.
I looked at the Champion Tyson thinking its Round 4 and said "well,not bad for a 2009 game"
Then I saw the comparison
Winch punches in the fight night series looked the most cartoony to you?
Tbh, the animations in round 2 and 4 seem a bit off. 4 is missing that momentum like you see in 2004 and Champion.
Idk y but growing up I always thought champion was better it highkey looks very clunky to me compared to 4
Is it better fnr4 more than fnc? Fnc looks like feel of hitting more than fnr4.
I prefer 4 because champion let's you spam blocking
4 by far best
4 is the all around best, because they hit every aspect of a boxing game, but 2004 is my favorite because of the music, and gameplay
Amazing commentary. Brought up some good points
Hahahahahahaha trust me, I feel the same way. I made this when I first started, but I put out a video about the History of Fight Night WITH commentary. Appreciate the feedback
@@IVSAKENSOUL all love. Just messing with you. Keep up the content
It's all good. Had me laughing foreal tho lol I thought about redoing all of the side by sides I've done, since I've become better at editing. Also, adding commentary helps drastically.
Round 4 all the way.
🙏🏻 Fight Night 4 is a classic 👌🏼
Fnc is improved in every aspect
En conclusión me voy a a comprar los 2
Después decime si el 4 podes crear completamente los rostros como el 3...💪
Cuál te gusto mas?
Playing FNC rn online it’s super ass lol record is 166-87 wins but honestly I should have more wins at least 230+ everyone quits after you get passed the ridiculous jab /power punch spam . Then on top of that the game rewards idiotic spamming over actual boxing ! Normally I’m the more accurate fighter by 10% and I still lose the rounds because I’m not spamming haymakers 🤦🏾♂️literally I’m actually boxing and yet the game rewards the opponent because he spammed me forcing me to win most my matches by late game knockouts lmao. Also I know it’s a glitch or something these people do because for some odd reason face scans take unlimited damage and can drop your ass off with one punch so I avoid thoose all together 🤦🏾♂️i only play champion cuz I love boxing but I can’t do online anymore it’s awful
Bro your just a Lil trash if you can't beat these spammers no offense, there is always a way to counter it but you gotta practice, avoid the haymakers let them tire out don't just leave because you think everyone is a spammer. Next thing you know your leaving every game you lose, unfair.
Champion has stamina and damage problems, round 4 definitely better
I prefer 4 over Champion. 4 overall was better
what's the issue with stamina? Sliders can help?
i wish i could run this game my pc is too low for emulating
Man this needs too be on Xbox series x and xbox one.
Champion is, but sadly that's it
All of the Fight Nights should be on XSX and XB1
Facts!
Why fight night round 4 not backwards compatible??
Swoją drogą 13lat juz czekam na fight night 5 i lipa
FNC punches feels a lot more quick and harder, which in nearly all combat simulator games is lacking...
which is better?
Will fight night 4 play on Xbox x series?
Only thing wrong with round 4 are the repetitive stuck punching animations, champion is more realistic
Too bad Fight Night Champion Legacy Mode has a glitch that basically makes the game unplayable
Я думала это только у меня такая проблема, решили её как ни Будь?
1:23, 10:05, 10:46 OH MAH GAAAAAAAWD!!! 😱😱😱
I can't really decide. The thing is that.. both games don't represent the sport very good.
FNR4 - has high, low block
- the character moves better, in FNC it seems like it has delay.
But... you can hit your oponnent a lot in the head and it almost has no damage
Working the body doesn't seem to do much, they implemented that sistem in FNC, where it does drain the oponent stamina. I know it does drain a little but it s to innefective.
If you are an outside fighter, counter puncher... it somehow drains your stamina more than your oponnent.
Counter punching window is a joke which I think in online it would be a mess.. same with the side stepping in FNC
Punches are slow and stiff, the power punches are like from a different game because they look sooooo arcady :))))
Flash ko's are veeeeryyy rare, a lot of times I hit my oponent in the head and it should be a flash ko in reality buuut... nope, not in this game
FNC on the other hand... has more flash ko's, you can take advantage of counter punching, punching the body and it s also faster and the animations don't feel so... kinda broken or stiff.
But it's too brutal to represent the reality also.
Also it is easier to spam in FNC
If they would put the high/low block, character movement, it would be the best. And also.. the moving from side to side could be spammed pretty easily...
For me it would be FNC because how I play it's kinds more representative in FNC, I play outside with counter punches.
I tried to play the same in FNR4 a lot of times but.. it doesn't really work, the counter window makes it horrible... a jab in the block gives the oportunity for my oponent to have that 2 3 seconds counter punch :))))
Forgot to mention that the bots in FNC are spamming a lot the body which again is... bad
can I get the name of the music from the start of the video? please?
It's the Fight Night Round 4 Intro song
The original is by Mr Flash
Mr Flash - Champions (TV track)

@@IVSAKENSOUL said, thanks i found it
Miss it
Lol if u button mash in champion it's cus u suck. Coming from ufc and playing rouhd 2-4 I liked it and the stick is fine for once ur adjusted... But the button controls and stick together are so much better depending on what combo u want. If u button mash in a Fighting game, there's something called mortal combat 🤷🏻♂️ end that's not button mashinng when u see good people play play and know the combos. But for sure fight night champion isn't a button masher 🤣🤣 if u know how to use both.....
Which is better, round 3 or champion? I have round 3
Champion, but they play extremely different from another. Champion feels like Round 4, and Round 3 feels reminiscent of Round 2 with updated visuals and slower fighting.
2004 better than both.
Facts!
Have ea been updating the latest fight night for xbox one? Cause characters like Joshua, fury and Justin Bieber have been added. I wasn't sure if they were user mods or if ea just added them in for fun.
I'm pretty sure those are use based. They did add Fury/Joshua to UFC 4 tho
You can upload and download created boxers on fight night champion community files.
@@MP-qb9md yeah just found out thanks
Champion was fun back in the day but that game ass now😂😂
This is before the FNC Update Patch, Tyson and other cacs hit harder and ali is weaker
FN 4 best box ever technic play block counter
Jak by odnowili FN 4 na x boxa one
Nawet nie musieli by nic zmieniac to bym kupil najlepsza gra w tematyce boxu every
Cos takiego jak soul calibur na DC ponad czsowy
Rd4 all day
why cant see in my playstation 4?
It's not backwards compatible on PS4, but Xbox Series X|S can play Champion.
what is your top three fight night games ranking?
1. Fight Night 2004
2. Fight Night Round 4
3. Fight Night Champion
Wbu?
@@IVSAKENSOUL Well actually Im new to the franchise, I started playing champion like three weeks ago. I was thinking about getting round 4 cuz Some people say its better than champion in terms of gameplay, Whats ur opinion on this?
Round 4 feels more like a boxing game, while Champion is more like a fighting game. I prefer 4. The auto blocking in Champion is annoying too, because it's basically cheese.
@@IVSAKENSOUL I also read that footwork is basically nonexistent in champion, How much does it affect or change the gameplay in round 4?
Honestly, I'd have to go and play them to get a feel for the footwork. They feel very similar, but that could be because I was focusing on the punches. I did miss more punches do to movement in Champion tho. I'd say getting Round 4 is a good idea imo. It's a classic, and it's one of the best boxing games ever. It's a win win.
Fight night champion is a cheap downgrade from Round 4
Champion all day rd 4 is great tho
Link po ka nyan lods
Fight night round 4 is the worst boxin game I ever played 🥱round 3 and Champion was better den dat bs
prefiero mil veces fight night champion
This is still to this day the best boxing game. I have my doubts about fight club surpassing it. Especially after seeing recent clips of it. I thought games would evolve more than they have. We still have mostly rag doll physics in 2022. Graphics take president over gameplay these days.
Champion easily
Maganda nyan kong may pang android
Hard to play analog controler fnr4 😂😂😂😂
Fight night round 4 has 60 fps
Fight night rd 4 look better then champion to me
I think that might be because I had Champions visual settings on Cinematic mode, so it looks faded. I might do a second side by side video since I've learned so much since that video.
