If you didn’t know, EA gave everyonea chance to vote on who they wanted on the cover Fight Night Round 4, Muhammad Ali or Mike Tyson, at www.AliorTyson.com.

Well, it seems that the ballots were just too close to pick a winner so EA decided to slap both boxing titans onto the cover, pictured above.

Tyson had this to say about the decision:

“I’m honored to be on the cover of Fight Night Round 4 with Ali. He was a special champ, and I have the highest respect for him as a person and a fighter. People always ask me if I think I would have beaten Ali if I had the chance to fight him when we were both in our prime. Now you can figure it out for yourselves. Fight Night puts you right in that ring and gives you the gloves to settle the score.”

Fight Night Round 4 is currently under development over at EA Canada and is expected to ship for the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 this summer.
