EA to fix before Christmas hols.

EA has pulled the latest bout of Fight Night Round 4 downloadable content from Xbox Live Marketplace.

"Freezing issues" forced forced EA's hand, and the company's "goal" is to have a replacement up in time for the Christmas holidays.

"We regret to inform Xbox 360 users that due to the freezing issues that users have been experiencing when downloading Champions Pack 2, we have come to the tough decision to take the DLC down from XBL Marketplace, fix the issue, and look to prop up a corrected Champions Pack 2 in the near future. Unfortunately the fix requires a full pass of approvals by all parties involved and may take longer than a few days," said EA in a statement.

Those of you who have downloaded Champions Pack 2 already can use a workaround explained on the EA forum. Locked items will stay locked, however, until the updated DLC is released.

Champions Pack 2 brought Bernard Hopkins, Evander Holyfield and Sonny Liston to the ring, plus new game modes Old School Rules and Rivalry.
