In Canada and other countries also, we calculate the reach from the arm pit to the end of the fingers. That's why he has a reach of 27.5''.

Just seems like there should be some type of consistency.. One of the first rules of creating a database.

Same database field, same data type, same unit of measure.

I agree with you but that's how they calculate the reach down here(I know that it's not the only country to calculate the reach this way). So there's no way for me to know his reach from fingers to fingers (The US way).

He's a good fighter so far; very built and well conditioned. He does look a bit like T-Rex now that I think.......lol :box: :box:
