I have about a 16 page Word document laying out the records and other info (who they beat and lost to), and have quite a few guys listed, and many more that I have yet to put inro Word.

Some of the fighters are well-known (e.g. Danny Wofford), but Danny did send a few guys into retirement! I haven't created anything from the TC templates, as I still am a relative newcomer.

If you'd like, I can post some of them in your thread, or start a new one. I do know that I have spent many a lunch hour driiling down on boxrec, and know the work effort involved.

Thanks! Mikehoudini

If you create any TCs using templates for guys you find in Boxrec this is a good place to post them. My only worry would be the possible duplication of work. Like you I've been spending lunch times creating lists of potential guys.
