Every verified opponent opens another full career
33 professional bout rows are displayed from the source record. 26 unique opponent identities have a stable source ID and an internal Fight Atlas route. Every opponent row has a verified identity link.
Source and correction standard
The complete professional history is retrieved from the established public fight-record source and cached for up to 24 hours. Current-roster status remains separate from historical career data and does not imply retirement.
