Become a rookie boxing manager with something to prove, working to establish a stable of talented fighters to take on the world – in LEATHER®: Tactical Boxing Management. Recruit promising young amateurs, established professionals or retired veterans, challenge favourable opponents, and train your fighters for upcoming bouts. Fights are won or lost depending on the strategy and tactics you devise, so it’s crucial to analyse both your combatant and your opponent to create the correct fight plan. Winning bouts will move your boxer up their respective weight division rankings, to eventually challenge for the world championship belt itself. But the boxing world is a slippery one; losing bouts will delay your ability to challenge others, ruining your momentum and allowing other promising stars to challenge your position. Suffering injuries during bouts will lower your boxer’s subsequent fitness, meaning they will be less effective in the next bout unless given time to rest and recuperate. Boxers you seek revenge upon might shift weight division, foiling your plans for immediate payback. Different boxers peak at different stages during their careers, and as time passes your boxers will age and their abilities will wane. Young, fresh-faced opponents will rise through the ranks to challenge your dominance, and wily old campaigners will battle on long passed their best, eager to show they’ve still got it. The path to glory is not always clear, and it is up to you how you form your fighters’ careers. Do you ambitiously rush them up through the rankings – challenging as high as you can each time, or do you favour a steadier approach – building your boxer’s skills over more contests? Do you favour the breathless punch exchanges of the lower weight divisions, or the thudding power of the heavier ones? Will you dominate in one weight division for a decade, or will you shift your fighters from division to division, capturing as many titles as possible before their skills begin to wane? Do you allow your recruits to retire undefeated at the peak of their powers, or do you keep ushering them on for one more tilt at the big time, long after their abilities have deteriorated? The choice is yours; there’s no end-game in LEATHER®. The only definition of glory is your own. ## Key features - Recruit boxers (amateur, pro, veteran) - Train fighters for bouts - Devise fight strategies and tactics - Analyze opponents - Climb weight division rankings - Manage fighter careers and aging - Handle fighter injuries and recovery ## Recent user reviews (10 of 25) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/leather-lite/id1467941266/reviews.md ### 1/5 — Lag *2025-09-11* It already lagged i was testing to before buying the full game. I pressed on at the fighter stayed at 99% loading for 5 mins. I tried to restart app samething **Developer response:** Hi there. Try tweaking the UI Scaling setting on the Options screen. ### 1/5 — Stop being money hungry *2025-08-02* Bro, this game is not that good and you have to pay for it if they made it free I think they would earn more money than just people downloading it and then deleting it cause they gotta pay ### 5/5 — Good game but.. *2024-06-17* Really good game love it bought the full version only thing that is a problem for me is all the tabs and stuff is a lot but as I play more it’s become less difficult would love for this game to come to steam or on laptop/pc in general really good game overall can’t wait for future updates best boxing manager on IOS I’ve seen so far **Developer response:** Thanks for the review. I'm working on a PC version as we speak. ### 5/5 — Pretty good *2023-08-01* Amazing game really fun and very detailed props to the devs. **Developer response:** Thanks! ### 5/5 — Make a football leather *2023-05-28* Can you please make a football one? it’s similar but it’s just football let le you can look up football if you want what is all about that’s all I can give you can you please make it ### 5/5 — Few suggestions *2022-07-02* I think it would be interesting to add a psychological factor in a fight where a fighter is intimidated by another fighter were their ability lowers or can’t get their “gear working”. This can be done by adding a fear factor as a natural trait or natural build up, based on your performance and the fighters that you have beaten or even a undefeated record or a long win streak. I also think that their should be a fan base for a fighter like a number that increases and even the stadiums of how people attend the fight because the appeal aspect is subjective without any real implication. I also think the betting odds in also interesting. I think in a fight the concept of low blows and point dedication would be nice (this can work in aspect of the interaction between the two styles fighting each other and their ability to use a specific punch) maybe even controversial scorecards from the judges were they appeal to the fighter who is the favourite (linking back to the betting odds). Maybe adding more rounds like 15 or 20 has in the exhibition this could work on fight difficulty or a different era such as a 100 years ago their was no rule of a fighter going to the neutral corner after a knock down. Awards suggestions: Fighter of the decade Fighter of the century Longest undefeated streak Longest win streak Most top 10 top 3 opponents beaten Most years rated top 10 top 3 (year by year) These are a few suggestions on top of my head of course this is up to you, but I think feedback is important because the developer may get a few ideas that they may have never thought of. P.S: have a great day developer let’s enjoy this game develop together🥰. **Developer response:** I am considering factoring in things like low-blows, accidental head-butts, etc, it's just finding a way to add them in that doesn't unbalance the game. The betting odds thing isn't something I'm going to get involved with as they're tremendously difficult to calculate properly for authenticity, plus in certain territories where gambling is prohibited Leather would end up getting banned for just featuring it...I'm going to play it safe in that regard. ### 5/5 — Good game overall *2022-06-12* I really enjoy this boxing game but i would love an update! **Developer response:** There'll be an update this week, if all goes well. ### 1/5 — Good game until they pull the rug out *2022-05-23* Had a lot of fun playing the game, but nowhere did it say you could only play 1 year of your career on the lite version. Was really enjoying it and then they want $5 to continue.. maybe $1 but not a chance this is worth $5 Edit: it doesn’t say anything about being limited to 1 year until after you have downloaded. Also whoever responds to the reviews for this company is rude, not only on my review but on most of these. **Developer response:** Dude it's literally written on the main menu, right there, the first thing you see. ### 5/5 — Great game question tho *2021-07-24* Whats the difference between this and the main game **Developer response:** Hi there. The Lite version permits managerial careers of 1 year, whereas the full version has no limits. ### 5/5 — Honest Personal Review *2021-07-04* So, I won’t mimic everyone’s reviews about how you can build a gym/team the way you want and all of the ins and outs of the game. I agree with 95% of what I read after downloading and playing the game. My review is more just about how I appreciate a game centered on just boxing. As a fan of both Boxing and MMA I can understand why people would want this developer to make a MMA game. But after reading their responses about how they’re a bigger fan of Boxing and wouldn’t do the MMA game justice I’m glad I saw that. Personally, I prefer boxing to mma by a wide margin. To me boxing seems like more of a SPORT. It’s a combat sport for sure, but in boxing with the standing 8 count I feel like it’s based more to show off your skills at the sport of boxing. While I wouldn’t equate mma to “human cockfighting”, it definitely seems more barbaric as the ref is only there to stop one guy from killing the other. Add that with the long drawn out times on the ground and it becomes less about sport and more about just hurting people. No MMA fight can compare to something like Ward Vs Gatti 1 in my opinion. And for a developer to stick to just boxing is something I applaud **Developer response:** Thanks for the review. The money-hunting side of me wants to learn more about MMA to produce the equivalent game for it, however considering just how long it took me to build Leather I think it's a complete non-starter, plus building the updates to this alone is quite the effort, never mind adding more onto my plate. For me boxing has always been easier to just "get". ## Frequently asked questions about LEATHER® (Lite) ### What is LEATHER® (Lite) about?
