Meaning of asterisks on records on boxrec?

Post by matador »

Looking through fighter records, I've noticed every fighter has asterisks on their records. For example, on Andre Ward's record there is an asterisk on Sakio Zika; Danny Garcia has an asterisk on Zab Judah; Erik Morales has one on Pablo Cano. Anyone figure out what these mean?

Yeah, I wondered that as well. Crazy to have an asterisk and no explanation as to what it's for.

I first noticed it beside Danny Williams and thought Boxrec were highlighting which boxers desperately need to retire...
