Will there be a Donkey Kong Boxing game?

Well, I've been pondering this question for quite some time. Whenever a DK sport game is discussed, a boxing game always comes to mind. There have been several clues that lead me to think one is not unlikely from happening.
1: The Boxing glove DK uses as his bat in both Mario Baseball games.
2: The very punch-out-esque Kong Boss Battles in both Jungle Beat games, and finally
3: Donkey Kong is indeed in the new Punch-Out game.

The third one is especially suspect, seeing as Mario was the referee in the original Punch-Out, and yet he makes no appearance whatsoever in the new one. This leads me to believe that perhaps they are working on a Donkey Kong Boxing game for the Wii similar to Punch-Out, but likely to take a more multiplayer orientation to it.

Do you think this is likely or not, and either way, what do you think/want it to be like?

4. The final boss in DK64 was K.Rool dressed as a boxer in a boxing ring.

Yes, thanks for that example I missed. Do you have an opinion on the topic though?

Well, if it were executed well, made unique from other boxing games, and had a DKC-esque feel to it, I'd like it. There'd have to be more than just a boxing ring, though. Maybe DK's treehouse, Cranky's Cabin, K. Kruiser II, Gangplank Galleon, etc.

I don't have anything particularly meaningful to add here just now, I just want to say that it would be awesome to punch a Krusha into a palm tree, and watch coconuts rain down on his head.

Oh yeah! :D

plus, for the list...

5. DK uppercuts Kaptain K. Rool through the roof of his airship at the end of K. Rool Duel.

6. One of DK's moves in Super Smash Bros. is a punch.

Yes, DK has punched people before. What I'm asking is what you would think of a DK boxing game, not how many references to boxing in DK games you can come up with.
