PRO BOXING UNIVERSE
DICE GAME Recently
brought to my attention an excellent round by round or quick play
boxing game, a massive universe of boxers and
options.

The Pro Boxing Universe (PBU) is an Excel, PDF, Dice and Charts
game. It is not necessarily a “Long Play Game”.
The game is probably more of a Medium Play Game. Medium
Play because the full play game is not a punch-by-punch game but a
round by round game. There is also a “Quick Play” version of the
game included. The game provides everything from Pre-match and
Post-match scenarios to career building possibilities with
built-in backstory of strengths and weaknesses. There is an Out of
the Ring Chart that could see any fighter experience: Serious Life
Events, Management and Relational Issues, Injuries and even
Catastrophic events.
You can play the game any way that you like. You can do one offs,
tournaments, big shows or you can recreate Boxing History! There
are 17 different weight classes with thousands of fighters. Each
boxer comes with a Career Start Year, Birth Country, and Weight
Division to give you a great opportunity to set up your FICTIONAL
or HISTORICAL BOXING UNIVERSE any way that you desire. You can
fight a guy from 1840 vs a guy from 2022 if you like or you can
begin at any year and start from there.
The game has EIGHT SEPERATE BOXING ERAS that come with their own
set of Rules and charts (IE: London Prize Ring Rules Era, Marquess
of Queensbury Rules Era, The MAFIA Era on up to today’s Modern
Rules era). Each different era contains different possibilities of
how a fight will be handled, such as Unlimited Rounds, Rounds only
ending when someone is knocked down, fights only ending when a
fighter cannot continue, a fight ending when the Police stop it
because “boxing is illegal” etc. This is sure to add a much
greater depth and enjoyment to the game as you can watch the
“History” of boxing unfold!
The game also has thousands of fighters available. They are
separated into two different universes: Fictional Boxing Universe
and Historical Boxing Universe.
The FICTIONAL BOXING UNIVERSE contains all fictional fighters.
This gives you the opportunity to watch careers unfold right
before your eyes without any bias or expectation! You will find
yourself growing attached to certain fighters because you
experienced their career with them. You will hate those that upset
your favorites. You will respect even those you hate!
The HISTORICAL BOXING UNIVERSE contains thousands of real-life
fighters. From Jack Johnson to Muhamad Ali. From John L. Sullivan
to Mike Tyson. From Harry Greb to Roberto Duran. From Peter
Jackson to Tyson Fury! Just like in the FICTIONAL game, you can
fight the greatest vs the greatest or redo and recreate a
Historical career.
The fighters are all different, which means some are better than
others! That means that some fighters are definite future Elite
Champions, while some are, as the old sports writers used to call
them, “Palookas”. Some are Contenders, some are “Tomato Cans”.
Some are Journeymen while some are true Gatekeepers! Each fighter
is rated in 13 different categories such as the ability to control
the fight, punching power, the ability to take a punch, pre-fight
training, even how well known the fighter is in the media and
more!
The PBU will bring you hours and hours of intimate game play
filled with excitement, intrigue, heartache, and surprises. It is
sure to become a tabletop classic for any true boxing fan!
