So, I have not played heavily since the latest update and I do not and am not bothered playing online. I have had a few career fights and I few quick fights and I have to say there is an improvement. Punches seem to be landing better, even though stamina is still depleting way to fast in my opinion it now seem to be doing the same for the AI boxer so things are more evenly matched. They have addressed the "Stunned Moment" issue and I am not finding it actually possible to knock down the opponent rather than chase them around the ring like a headless checking punching in to cloud space.
The selecting your opponents in your career mode and their starting ages is very welcome and when you eventually get into the top rankings you will now be facing the best.
Personally Stamina still needs to be adjusted a small bit and punch depletion when fighting I still think this is too much and just needs a small tweak.
I also think there was some improvement to the graphics and the fighters seem to look more fluid and less laggy but I am not sure if that is the devs or some changes I have made to my system.
In Summary, this is a step in the right direction and we are nearly there with a decent boxing game, BUT I am NOT paying £20.00 for the Klitschko brothers, come on lads that is virtual robbery.

I believe they did this adjustment to fit their personal standard of 8 round fights.

So, an update to my previous post RE the game post Update, I have started a new career as in the lightweight division on PRO level, even though there seems to be a positive adjustment to stamina where as the AI opponent seems to actually be losing some now there is still a massive issue with the AI being massively overpowered! I am in the early stages and what punches I do land have hardly any effect yet the AI can drain your entire HEAD or BODY bar in one or two punches and knock you down just as quick. This is not being knocked down with a flash knockdown this is being floored with two punches.
I can't believe over two years in we are still talking about the same issues that have plagued the game from the start. The AI is to powerful after intermediate level and the stamina depletion is still crap, Jesus Christ it is not rocket science to get this adjusted and better balanced!!

Tried the patch, I wanna get every boxer too but not spending $20 for everyone each time, I don't do that in any game. they're just skins with swapped punch animations. The ai have high buffs on pro and undisputed, you'll end up gassing yourself if you try to play as a swarmer/slugger. but you also take the most damage when your stamina is low and that's when they usually hit you. The created boxers are going to have the hardest balancing. I think the buffs combined with traits have too much power, like 20% stamina regeneration is quite a bit.

Career mode trash. Secret buffs is how make it challenge. Quick play no secret buffs
