Will anyone ever do this again?

Kelcie Banks was 460-86 an amateur and Billy Bridges was 396-18...will any American amateurs ever compile records like this again???

Very doubtful. They don't make kids like they used to.

That's a lot of fights for a kid to have . In my humble opinion 80-120 is more than enough to get em ready for the pros if that's what the want to do

when I first met Bones Adams in 1987 he was 13 years old with 112 fights...I was 19 and only had 48 at the time...

Lol. Won't happen. First of all it's hard for a lot of experienced boxers to get fights locally often. A lot of boxers have coaches that seem to think their record actually means something. IMO, you can't improve without experience. And who wants 500 fights as a amateur anyhow. Unless you are just so great, you don't get hit that's a lot of fights. . . .and if you are that great who are you boxing against? If you are competing nationally and internationally, that's a big investment (financially and timewise). I'm pretty sure all those guys with those ridiculous records are a thing of the past. Plus with no record keeping system, you can't really tell what anyones records are. It's funny how many pros all of a sudden win national amateur championships that no one but them remembers.

The records are really what the fighters team tells us once they become pros. I seriously doubt all those guys are being 100% honest with those crazy records like 250-5 or whatever. Having 300 plus Amatuer fights is just too many imo. Those punches add up n not in a good way. I saw a guy who was in.his early 30s but had 300 plus Amatuer fights and dude was walking like he was in his 80s

I believe Kelcie 100 pct...if u ever talk to him, he knows his record like the back of his hand...can tell u who he fought, where, when...details of the fights, etc...but I agree, some records are GROSSLY blown up

[scallum]

Kelcie's records does not seem to be an exaggeration . Dude had 500 plus fights that is just incredible. I like how some guys claim to be 250-5 or something like that. Unless you are a freak of Nature like Breland it would be extremly hard to get so many victories wit so little losses
