FIGHTER PROFILES In order to come up with something usable to make my betting choices, I had to go to multiple websites. I also realized when watching the fighters fight, I gained more useable information than any website could provide. Just because a website gave a fighter’s ‘reach’ doesn’t mean that fighter knows how to use it. This began a journey creating profiles of various designs that has progressed to what you see now. I will be trying to continue to evolve my profiles, so now we can continue that journey together. MY PROGRAM I have done some Horse Racing betting; therefore, I have structured the program to be somewhat similar to the format you would see in a Horse Racing or Dog Racing program. I gather all the information from a fighter’s previous fight and continue to add as the fighter continues fighting. Statistical information is from the ‘tale of the tape’ and if it’s incorrect there, it will be incorrect here.
