There was a time this would have been interesting. Now Wilder is shot, Wilder is going to suffer serious injury if he doesn't retire.

Both guys did great against the two undefeated champs. Even though later AJ crushed Francis like a grape.

Francis Ngannou vs Rico Verhoeven anyone?

Most underrated chin ever. Fought Bangers like Chavez, De La Hoya, Trinidad, Duran, Bazooka Limon, Jose Luis Ramirez, Edwin Rosario, Ray Mancini, Luis Ramon Campas and SRL. Still never KO'd.

Tua would have been just as satisfied if he had ki11ed him.




Reminds me of this K & P skit...

James Toney had a longer boxing career than The Old Mongoose.

Who else has scanned over Boxrec records for days, months and years? Diamond, Silver. International, Interim Championships drive me crazy. Sometimes It's hard to tell what should be considered a "world title" or not. Studying records you learn some interesting things: Joe Louis always gets...

I noticed that we often have people asking about lists such as "Who had the most career knockouts" and other different stats and figured that it might be good to try to keep it all to one thread, so lets see how this works. Since most lists are always an ongoing project additions and corr...

Henry Armstrong #1

Name opponent that fought both Ray Robinson and Carlos Monzon. Don't look it up...

Here, I'll start...

Ray is 0-3 verses opponents named Joey.

OK, now you.

Who would win in a fight between these two paper tigers?

Thank you sir.

What does the asterix mean in the boxrec boxer's records?

For instance; whenever you see Jesse Hart*, Oleksandr Usyk*, David Benavidez* or Errol Spence Jr* on anyone's record
there is always an asterix at the end of their names.

I know... Courage vs Darroll Wilson was one of the best barn burners I've ever seen. Wilson was as good as knocked out and came back to stop Courage. It was right up there with Foreman-Lyle and Cooper-Moorer.

A glance at Leon Spinks 178-7 133 KO's amateur record looked to be the stuff of a boxing ATG. His pro career he turned out to be an aggressive journeyman lucky enough to be a contender and super lucky to be a champion. Another amateur juggernaut Courage Tshabalala ran a record 72-1 with 72 consecuti...

I am in the correct forum for that am I not?

Elijah Cooper lost a 3rd UD June 18, 1966 to Glenn Shoblock, It was Cooper's first loss. Can you amend the record to show that fight?

Leon Spinks: 178-7 with 133 knockouts

I'm talking first round KO's over otherwise never KO'd fighters...

Another one fitting this description: Michael Nunn

Listed as TKO 8, it should be listed as a RTD 8. Boza-Edwards finished the 8th, did not come out for 9th.

Might as well add this cat, Fireman Jim Flynn, into the mix.

Sheppard-Joey Maxim
Collier-Tex Cobb

...and Derrell Coley -Saoul Mamby.

All three stopped guys who were never stopped by anyone else. Also all three did it in the 1st round.
