Either that or Black Tiger was a masochist.

I quite like the fact nobody was successful in defending their title at the Madison Square Garden Bowl.

Wondering if he can get to 50(50 ko's) before he's actually tested.

http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_ ... &cat=boxer

I believe there are some U.S. journeymen who have two or three registered fight aliases as well as there own name so they can still fight even when they're suspended.

This guy is Fijian, he has 22 wins from 40 starts, all 22 wins are by KO!

This guy always sticks out like a sore thumb:

http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_ ... &cat=boxer

won 43 (KO 42) + lost 3 (KO 3)


As does this guy:

http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=565&cat=boxer

won 55 (KO 49) + lost 6 (KO 6)

Never lost on points, went 28 wins on the spin by KO before having his first title fight, then won his next 15 by KO before winning on points.


http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_ ... &cat=boxer

Never lost at 122lbs, won all his fights there by KO bar his pro debut and won all his 17 title defences via KO.

Contrast taht with this guy:

http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_ ... &cat=boxer

Who went the distance in all but one of his 18 world title fights.


this guy fought a record 339 world title rounds:

One loetter away from having one of the greatest names ever.

Bonyongo Destroyer and Jukebox Timebomb are my personal faves.

Travis Fulton

His record is only remarkable because he managed to fit it around his 300+ MMA fights

That is truly an incredible fighting record. I'm taking a guess that this guy does not feel pain! (But doesn't have a good chin)

If you look the guys he has beaten don't have a win between them, then he steps up in class and gets knocked out every time .
It gives the audience the illusion that the prospect is fighting some one half decent. But then this is typical in how fighters are brought forward.
It's the same for the Eastern European tomato cans that are brought over here. They have wins, in gym fights in their own country, to give them the illusion of credibility, then get knocked out whenever they go on the road.

I love Paul Wesleys record.... 16 wins in 60 odd fights... only 6 KO's

That really doesn't tell the story of this mans totally bizarre career.

two of his KO's were over a world champion and a British champion. Amazing.

he's beaten UFC veterans Joe Riggs, Cabbage Coreirra, Wes Sims, Heath Herring, drew with Jeremy Horn and has been in with some really good company, not quite the same as the East Eurobums

Best thread in ages, I love records, me!

Been fighting for nearly 14 years is 36-0 34 KO's and 24 KO's in the first round.

http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_ ... &cat=boxer

Amazing one this, made his debut by stopping an unbeaten, future Undisputed Heavyweight Champion of the World in 2 rounds.

http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=564&cat=boxer

Fought for the Australian heavyweight title, Australian cruiserweight title and Australian light heavyweight title all in one fight and fought Carlos Monzon.

Funny I was just thinking of him as I read the initial post!
Some journeymen were decent!!
Anthony Hannah fought for a British & is a hard little pro.
Steve foster got thrown in early on & has a intresting record as does Steve Robinson,who's son is fighting now I think?
