It's not balanced, its not fair to the other legends in game whose stats incorporate both the good and the bad and most importantly its just straight up erroneous, Tito Ortiz, in his prime, wasn't a better calibre wrestler than GSP, DC or JBJ.

Nobody is saying nerf them into the ground, but you can't honestly think these stats make sense

They're like a homemade CAF made by someone with a bias for the fighter in question.

Seriously, my Cro Cop CAF had lower stats than the official Cro Cop.

I get they're supposed to be "fun" prime versions of themselves, but that doesn't excuse the fact they have way to high a stats.

I'm a massive Cro Cop/Wand fan, huge.
And even I'm looking at their stats going "Lolwut"

I mean, Cro Cop, Mirko Cro Cop has the highest clinch throws in HW (94) tied with Cain Velasquez.
Yeah some of the stats are a little weird. Cro Cop clinch throws & switch stance (he never shifts to orthodox) strike me as a couple. Wand's chin is probably too high. Tito's striking power.

At the same time, I prefer good, usable versions of these fighters rather than ones nerfed into the ground just because they are from prior generations. I'd be cool with small adjustments, but if I come back and Wand's power is dramatically lower or he has way less stamina or Cro Cop has no chin I'll be super mad

Pretty much all these guys were one dimensional, two dimensional at best. Cro Cop = dedicated specialist kickboxer with great TDD and the ability to survive on bottom. Wand = ferocious in-the-fire striker with scary knees. Kimbo = power puncher with no ground game etc.

As long as all these guys' main strengths are preserved, some of them could probably use nerfs to areas they truly weren't strong in (like Cro Cop clinch throws and Tito standup power). Could probably also use a SMALL health nerf. Wand seems to have a chin on par with prime Hunt in the game and I don't think even in his prime Wand could absorb the same level of punishment.

I guess I'm just worried the wrong adjustments would be made. I prefer these guys to be good, fun and usable vs "realistic" and garbo trash that nobody uses.
