It is a shame when companies feel the need to compromise what makes a game great to simply satisfy the complainers. Fight Night Round 4 is the best boxing SIM I have played in a long time, and though I am a former button masher I have taken the time to learn the Total Punch Control (TPC), and have adapted to playing the game as it was intended. Stated best by a friend of mine: "The whole point of creating a Sim boxing game, is to be able to throw the punch yourself, not have a button do it for you" Hitman324 There is no doubt in my mind adding the buttons back in will virtually eliminate the skill gap online, as well as ruin the online experience. If you agree sign and let EA know keep it TPC.
