Any way to get High Kicks as a boxer?

I know Michael Bisping has High Kicks as a boxer and he's unique, but is there any way of getting it for your CAF?

Re: Any way to get High Kicks as a boxer?

from my understanding (so I could be wrong), you cannot get high kicks on a CAF that has boxing as one of his primary fighting styles. Would be cool though for those rare guys who do it.

For Career Mode CAF in the next iteration, it would be cool if you could spend extra points to get skills outside of your chosen technique. Like if you were a Muay Thai/BJJ guy, you could study Judo under Karo or something via the camps and then add some of their moves. Since it's outside your skill set, they'd cost twice as much (or take twice as long) to make it tough to do... But that would be a great addition and a good way to make your CAF actually unique instead of just a kickboxer with BJJ skills just like any of the other real fighters.

That's a cool idea - i can definitely see them exploring the option. I would love to see true hybrid styles in the next iteration.

I mean, for example at our MMA school we're great grapplers, but we work the double legs and a lot of Judo throws because that's where our head instructor started. I would love to give my guy some judo throws. Sure they probably won't be as powerful and they'll probably cost me twice as much to get on my CAF - but I'd like the option to have them.

I'd just love to see the CAFs become truly 'hybrid' characters.

Yeah, Rashad is the only one with it that I've seen so far. There may be others though.

Excellent idea. That was actually how I initially thought the camp aspect of career mode would be. Hopefully they implement this for next year. Does THQ have forums? Someone should post this there.

Outside of Koshchek I don't think so.

Rich Franklin doesn't seem to have high kicks, either.
