Jofre;
That's true, and I appreciate your comments. The thing about it is that Jurich beat two 8s and a 9 in his career, and has almost no chance to do so without increasing his HP, leaving his other ratings as realistic as possible. After play-testing him against the other fighters in the division/era, he consistently lost to the 8/9 overall guys until I bumped the HP.

Doran may be a little high, but he fought a lot of the era's contenders and was pretty consistent after his beginner stage.

Not every fighter's career fits the formula. These are just my estimations, and people are obviously welcome to use them as a starting point and tweak them to their own opinions and specifications. That's one of the great things about the game!

I would be open to suggestions as to how to make light hitters more competitive in other ways if you've got any to share. It just seemed in Jurich's case 11/10 was the max in CF, so bumping the HP seemed the next best choice.

Love to hear from Jim on this, too.
