Networked Media Production Week 13

So i used this week's tutorial to research the statistics between Mike Tyson and Muhammad Ali, it is a little hard to find much information on punch percentage for each fight, especially the smaller fights, so I have decided to use the result for each fight, and analyse how many wins by KO, how many losses, how many times knocked down, how many times knocked out. Then for the big fights including each fighter's first title win, because information on those fights will be easier to get. With these fights in particular i plan on trying to find information on punches thrown in each round, how long the fight went for, and how many knockdowns and whether the fighters won their first title by way of knockout or by the decision. Using these 'big fight' statistics we can assume that the fighters were in their prime at the time, which is ultimately the period of their careers that we want to compare. I plan on designing it by having the graph of each fighter on either side of the screen, and the 'big fight' highlighted in another colour, so when you click on it you can have a look at the stats for those fights. I also plan on having a 'compare' button, which will go to another screen with a boxing ring and each fighters stats will be colour coded, maybe something like Tyson red and Ali blue, and the more of either colour that covers the ring will show who (statistically) is more likely to win.
