Great fighter. The movie last year about Edith Piaff had an interesting portrayal of him.

I'm not doubting your statistics, & I know Box Rec don't get everything right.. Their listings read 117 fights 111 wins 0 draws with 65 KO's
Only a slight difference, but increasing his resume by another 4 KO's..

In certain era's, Boxrec are very shaky on things such as records etc. They have alot of Cerdans oppostion as 0 Fights, and they often change the result of fights etc Langford/Ketchel.

So at times they can be wrong about certain things, and it isnt good getting your information of there for boxing down the line.

I'm fairly good on statistics, but I occasionaly need to brush up.. For example, after reading your initial post, I thought great, but didn't he have more fights than that? Although this may be considered a liberty, where would you suggest I look for future reference?
