Okay, so I’ve been wanting to really get into boxing, and the name David Benavidez keeps popping up. I figured the best way to understand a fighter is to look at their record, their scorecard. So, I decided to dive in and create my own tracking system.
First, I grabbed a simple notebook and pen. I’m a physical notes kind of guy. Digital is fine, but I like to scribble things down.
Then I searched online for Benavidez’s complete fight history. Gotta start at the beginning, right? I mean, who did he fight first?
Next, I created a basic table in my notebook. Nothing fancy, just columns for:
- Date of the fight
- Opponent’s Name
- Result (Win/Loss/Draw)
- Method of Victory/Defeat. Like, did he knockout?
- My Personal Notes (Anything that stood out to me).
Start Filling the Data
I started filling in the data. It was slow going at first. Finding reliable info for some of his earlier fights was, let me tell you, a bit of a hunt. Some websites had partial information, others had conflicting details. This is real work.
I cross-referenced everything I could. Multiple sources, just to be sure. I even dug through some old boxing forums – some real die-hard fans out there with some great info!
Keeping up to date
Now, whenever Benavidez fights, I update my scorecard right away. Write down everything. I add my own notes too, like, “Wow, that left hook was brutal!” or “He seemed a little slow in the third round.” Stuff like that, you know?
It’s become my little project. It’s not just about the wins and losses. It’s about seeing how he’s developed as a fighter, understanding his style, and really appreciating the sport.
It’s my own personalized way of tracking and appreciating his career, more than just numbers on a page!
