Surprised that I managed to get so many, although I missed out some really obvious ones.

Really good quiz. Very embarrassed about a couple I missed, but some of those IBO, WBO ones are hard

Not bad I guess, great quiz.
Shockingly I couldn't remember Baer or Carnera's name! Felt the pressure I guess!
Couldn't spell Liakovich either.

72. Would have been in the 80's but there were some that I couldn't remember the spelling of.

79. Missed out on a lot of the 80s ones, and forgot about Chris Byrd.

82.
Remembered Francesco Damiani but somehow forgot Riddick Bowe and Max Schmeling
No way the likes of Jimmy Thunder or Danell Nicholson should ever feature on a list of 'heavyweight champs' in my eyes.
Then again, its a great game!

73 for me, I think I got most obvious ones but struggled on early 80's and some lesser known from waaaaaay back in the day
Cracking game, would love to do it for other divisions too

I got 79. Was let down by my inability to remember many names from the 80s through to mid 90s, embarrassingly enough.
What can I say? I was under pressure!

79 - got the vast majority of historical ones but missed out on John Tate, Ernie Terrell and Sonny Liston!

went pear shaped post Larry Holmes - a decent challenge for any boxing fan!

Just how do you spell Ingo's surname!!!!!
Brian Nielsen was probably my most obscure result!

71. Disappointing. Although a lot of the 10 minutes was spelt on Ingo's surname. Made a few howling misses.

I
thought i worked well under pressure. There i was unable get the names with the clock counting. I was stuck muttering Night Train, Night Train for about 2 mins until i could pull Liston's real name out of my brain.
Fairly disappointing 80. Some of the most obvious i missed out Herbie Hide, Patterson & Schmeling
