Niko Falin tournament fights disappeared?

Post by SportsRatings »

HW Niko Falin's record dropped by several bouts, and he just had a "debut" fight this month and is listed at 0-1 now.

His earlier fights were in 1-day tournaments.

In the first one from April 5, 2011, he beat Ed Monso and someone else. In the 2nd, from Dec 16, 2011 he lost to Ivica Bacurin in the 2nd round.

These fights existed for a couple of years in the database, were they judged to be amateur bouts or unlicensed tournaments?

Looks like I got my answer from the thread directly below this one.

Falin's tournaments were all "Bigger's Better" events which are no longer considered kosher.

Interestingly though not all the Bigger's Better fights have been removed.

The results from Bigger's Better 11 are still there, for example Evgeny Orlov's 3 fights (April 13, 2012).

That one was held in France, perhaps it was properly sanctioned and that's the difference?
