- **Full Actor documentation**: https://apify.com/foxlabs/ufc-mma-data.md

## Changelog

### 0.1 — 2026-11-02 — Dataset schema hardening

- Set the dataset `fields` schema back to open (`{}`) so no delivered row can ever be rejected by strict field validation; the table view and the documented output fields in the README are unchanged. (A sibling actor showed that a strict typed `fields` schema can fail validation on an edge-case row.)

### 0.1 — 2026-11-02 — Publish-readiness pass

- README raised to the full SIÁN standard (Overview, Getting Started, Integration, Pricing, Troubleshooting, Legal sections; FAQ in Q\&A format).
- Dataset schema `fields` documented for every output field.
- Data accuracy verified against the live source (fighter records and physicals match exactly); compute cost measured and per-event pricing proposed.

### 0.1 — 2026-11-02 — Initial release

- UFC & MMA data from ESPN's public, keyless JSON API in three modes: **rankings** (ranked fighters per weight class with full profiles), **fighters** (the full roster), and **events** (fight cards with results over a date range).
- Fighter rows carry the W-L-D record with finish breakdown, weight class, physicals (height, reach, weight, stance), age/date of birth, nationality, team and headshot. Optional career statistics.
- No API key and no login; requests go through Apify's free datacenter proxy (no setup).
