Hey guys, his 44-1 record is 100% legit. I've watched him from the start of his career, and I've matched him for a number of his fights as the promoter of the Ironheart Crown.
Admittedly, most of his early bouts were in very low budget, even shady local bar-style shows that don't get covered, and the opponents he faced were not high calibre. But nevertheless, the record is true, and he has proven himself repeatedly against the best opposition that we've been able to throw at him. Look at how he took out Bebe!
I know that all his fights aren't verifiable, but even FCFighter.com lists him as 33-1. It shouldn't be much of a stretch for anyone to imagine that he has a few more undocumented fights, and even if you can't accept that, 33-1 isn't any less impressive.
Miguel is an amazing fighter.
He has over 40 fights with only ONE loss! 34 of these fights are verifiable by FCFighter.com: (

Out of his 33 documented victories, only FIVE went to a decision. Miguel has 6 wins by TKO, KO, or ref/doc intervention. 22 of his wins came by submission, and 20 of his wins were decided in the first round!
His only loss was by a very close decision after he had been out for a year following a knee injury & surgery. This, his only loss, was avenged two years later by a very decisive first round submission.
Before his death just a few years ago, the late, great, Master Carlson Gracie Senior noticed Miguel's talent and took this rising star on a trip to Brazil. While there, Master Carlson issued a challenge to Brazil and the world, stating that nobody in the world could beat Miguel at 135 pounds. Coming from Master Carlson, that means A LOT!
I have personally witnessed Miguel's abilities on a number of occasions, and he is all the hype. He is a phenomenal fighter. When he was fighting for us, I actually looked all over to find somebody who could give him a good fight. We brought respected fighters in from as far away as Milwaukee, San Francisco, and even Canada to fight him, but no one could ever rise to the occasion.
I am very sorry that Miguel can no longer fight for us due to his contract obligations. However, I am extremely happy for his success and I am very proud to say that the Ironheart Crown played a very important role in launching his career.
Miguel Torres is here to stay. Congratulations, little brother. Keep it coming.
