This record is held by Audley Harrison (17-0-0) who has fought A. Bum an astonishing 17 times in his professional career.

Only kidding Audrey :wink: I love you really :o

For a half sensible answer, you'll probably find it to be a pair of boxers from the same stable or with the same manager, and one is put in front of the other as cannon fodder to pad out the other's record.

I read about two boxers from NY who fought each other something like 40 times. Can't remember the full story though.

I would have said Ted Kid Lewis and Jack Britton... But obviously given Josh's reply, thats not correct.
