Name Wrong...

"Manny" Siaca's actual REAL name is Manuel (not Manny). He's rated 47 (I think) at light heavyweight.

This not important? I would think that a person's name would be the most important part of a person's record...

He has always fought as Manny Siaca, that is what matters, not birthname. Yes, he is probably Manuel Siaca but could also be Emanuel Siaca or Manolo Siaca. (Just like my favourite homerun slugger/crazy guy Manny Ramirez for the Boston Red Sox).

By putting an actual name, if it isn't the name that a fighter goes by in the ring, would make it difficult for someone to find if usinf the search engine. For instance, if the name Arthur Susskind is typed in the search engine, the fighter does not turn up, but if the name Young Otto, which is what Susskind fought as, is typed in then no problem his record comes up. I do think that a fighters actual name should be put in a record somehwere, which is perhaps something John could add to a fighters personal data (his real name) because a lot of times a fighter may have three actual names that he may be known as. Perhaps have his name and the a box for his real name and another for his nickname/alias.
