Great input, guys!
Wow, you guys are good!
Thanks for the kind words, Mark. There will be more than 350 new fighters across the main eight weight classes when the additions are all entered and play tested. I've finished most of my researching and have entered and tested about two-thirds of them. Hope to have them complete in 10 days or so. That's why I tentatively made my first foray into picture hunting. Found 30 or so myself, but one-eleventh barely scratches the surface.
I also meant to tell you, Mark, that among those I downloaded of yours and that we had both done there were three or four that overlapped, including one of my personal favorites whom I had asked for TBCB to rank, Alabama Kid. We were almost identical on his MW ranking (I also did him as a LH).
Crusade, good catch. Yes I did need Narvo. Appreciate it. I will also check out the sites you suggested.
Shane, thanks so much in advance for the pics. I had looked at Marr, but wasn't sure I could do him accurately, based on BoxRec. The record you provided has many more fights and guys to use as markers. With Sands, Kid, Buxton, Cestac, Angelo, etc., to compare to, I think I will go ahead and add him. The least I can do in exchange for the pics, eh?
As for McNamee, I'm leaning toward LH for him, since that's where he was world ranked.
Any other guys the experts from Down Under think I should add from that era? There are only three or four in the game, so hope I'm not missing any world class guys. I've tried to be thorough, but over an entire decade and the whole world ... LOL!
