Problem with fighter's records

    Something i've noticed about alot of irish fighters is that alot of their fight records are inaccurate and not up to date. If you go on sherdog's fight finder or any other data base it's not easy to find irish fighters, not only this but most of their pro records are totally inaccurate. For example, the recent cage contender in may, all the fight results were submitted correctly which is great, but most of the guys were down as 1-0 after this event. We know that these guys have actually had alot more fights than this but just their fight results were not submitted.

    I just think this is a problem we have in irish mma because the fighters aren't getting the credit their due for all their hard work and training. Also, anyone looking to make it into the biggers shows, ufc, strikeforce etc... needs to have a good accurate fight record or they wont be selected for these shows.

    Its up to the fight promoters to to submit their fight results to databases so the fighters have the best possible opportunity to break into the biggers shows and frankly i dont think alot of them are doing this.

    Most fighters databases like Sherdog won't include a fight on someones record unless they can get the results of the whole event.
