Too hard!

Can we start out with some easier ones?

Boxrec says Jack Britton has one KO stoppage when he was age 20. This is out of 153 fights!

Either way, amazing !

These questions are way above my pay grade.

I will take a stab at 2nd most consecutive calendar years with at least one fight. Is it Archie Moore?

That's not a bad guess Alp!

Moore had 29 straight years (1935-1963)... which actually makes him 3rd on the list. There's just one man, with 30 consecutive years, between him and Azteca.


To Tony: Jack Britton had a total of 345 recorded pro bouts, and was only ko'd in his 3rd fight... which was then followed by 342 fight, where he wasn't ko'd a single time! Possibly the most amazing record in all of boxing, and one that of course will never be beaten.

Duran has a huge long career streak but I think he misses a year or two in the 80s?

Yeah, Duran did not have that many consecutive.

Doubt this is right, but I will take a stab at champions who fought each other the most.
Jack Dillion and Battling Levinsky fought each other at least 8 times. Johnny Dundee and Benny Leonard fought each other at least 8 times as well.

The Buckley stat is incredible since he was an English journeyman being fed to prospects week in week out.

Dillon and Levinsky actually fought 10 times - which isn't enough for 2nd place on the list, though. But you are very close. VERY close!

Yes, quite amazing! And after a non-winning streak of 88 fights, he ends his career with a win in his 300th and final bout. I like that!

By the way, the answer to this question lies hidden in the record of another English Journeyman.

Dillon and Chip ?
