Boxers who should be in the offical database

[IceTea]

Bowe and Mesi are both retired in the game. Helenius is a (6) up from a 4 or a 5 and Campillo is in the game (5).

Orlando Del Valle got his first real exposure and looked like the best prospect in boxing. He's in the database as a 4. And of course, Darren Barker off of his latest showing.

Maybe some clean up with regards to what fighters are actually active still. Guys like Bowe and Mesi are still active.

As for guys not actually in the game... I may be wrong on some of these guys so just skip over if I'm wrong...

- Jesus Soto-Karass
- Mike Dallas Jr.
- Ruslan Provodnikov
- Mauricio Hererra
- Demetrius Andrade
- Ameth Diaz
- Leonardo Zappavigna
- Gabriel Campillo
- 'The New' Ray Robinson
- Brad Solomon
- Thomas Dulorme
- Danny Garcia (I believe? There are two Golden Boy prospects that I confuse. One just fought Josesito Lopez and the other is lined up against Kendall Holt.)
- In general, there is a pretty good list of guys that fight regularly and in tough enough bouts to rate them accurately from Golden Boy's "Fight Night Club" series such as David Rodela and Ronny Rios that people would probably want.
- Rodrigo Guerrero (115 pounds, I think. Fought Darchinyan.)

* Good list. Generally, each weekend, or early in the week, I update the database from the boxrec results page and update or add fighters accordingly. This thread was created to suggest those fighters that I may have missed.
* Danny Garcia is in. I think he is a (6).

Ossie Duran, one tough guy. I think he would make an excellent addition.

Can we get him in the DATABASE. Thanks I think he deserves to be in the permanent one. Just a thought. Thanks to all who keep this fresh and updated.

The inclusion of Battling Torres's son while excluding the father makes no sense to me considering all of the lesser lights in the "official" database.

I rated him a few years back in my "Spice O' Life" thread. I also rated "Skinny" Jimmy Rothwell. Somehow, my rating of Rothwell was pulled into the db, but Torres was not!

Rothwell was a mediocre Philly welterweight.

Torres was a popular ligthweight/junior welter during the late 50s/early 60s who was top-ten ranked and had two shots at a world title.

Moreover, he's rated among The Ring's top 100 all-time hardest hitters.

Pesonally, I don't care if the "team" uses my rating or devises their own. The main point is that he needs to be in the database.
