And I will mention it again. So what's the problem?
The problem is you don't need to keep saying it.

I thought that they fought 3 times, sorry. Maybe I confused Lew Jenkins with someone else.

Freddie Dawson couldn't beat the great Ike Williams. He fought Williams 4 times.

Kevin Finnegan went 0-3 against Alan Minter, despite Minter himself saying that he thought Kevin nicked the second fight. Also Shig Kaneko just seemed to have a hex over Flash Elorde, going 4-0 against Flash. Once even, while Flash was world champ.

Kaneko-Elorde is interesting. Some of these aren't that surprising, the better guy simply won.
However it's surprising that Elorde went 0-4. I did notice that all four fights went the distance and were in Japan. You have to wonder if there was home cooking from the judges.

In a way, yes. It's like Ali vs Norton.

Yep. Jones was almost as likely to have beaten Tarver in his prime as Ali would beaten Norton.

You beat me to it!

Josue Marquez went 0-3 vs Esteban De Jesus...

And I think Alan Minter beat Kevin Finnegan three out of three as well...

Tyson would never have beaten Holyfield. Holyfield had his number mentally and physically.

Cesar Mamani hasn't beaten him despite having had 4 bouts vs. him (Mamani is 0-6-1 however, so...)

There are several other f-class fighters in his log who havent beaten him in 3+ tries....

Guy gets 3 fights, all against Jose Luis Ramirez (who should be in the IBHOF IMO)

And he lost them all!

How about in 1988/89 timetable when the great Evander Holyfield just jumped up to Heavyweight and struggled with the likes of Michael Dokes and Alex Stewart? Would Holyfield beat Iron Mike then? He didn't looked developed as a full fledged Heavyweight, yet.

Of course he would, he wanted Tyson after dokes. Mike fan boys always point to trouble in fights like that and Cooper when his will and heart on display in fights like that is exactly why Mike could never beat him.

Forrest couldn’t beat Mayorga.
Mosley couldn’t beat Forrest.
Oscar couldn’t beat Shane.

Think the last two there fought in the amateurs, too.
