|  Incorrect records on Fighter Profiles
Hey guys, I've just noticed that a couple guys MMA Records are incorrect on the MMANews rankings.
For example, Shane Carwins is listed as 6-1, with a number of fights left out from the middle of his career.
Another is Jon Fitch, listed as 25-4. According to Wikipedia (I know... i know..., it's hardly trustworthy itself) is actually at 23-3. If someone could clarify as to which of these is more accurate that would be great. 
When looking at records I tend to use MMANews, Sherdog and Wikipedia, but if anyone knows of any other good sources, be sure to let me/everyone else know!

Finding fighters stats is the only thing I use Sherdog for, but for stats, I do find them the best.
