HW champion with most loses?

most losses while they were reigning champ or when they finished their careers?

I think its ezzard charles. His losses after 1954 should have nothing to do with his greatness anyways.

Braddock used to hold this distinction, but it's possible some more losses have been uncovered for other heavyweights in the years since I've read that about him.

It would depend if you count the No Decision losses of James J. Braddock. Bradock had 24 official losses, and 2 ND losses. If you go to BoxRec, you will see that I found the one No Decision loss when he fought a good friend of mine, by the name of Paul Cavaliere. So, if you count both his ND losses, that would make it 26.

Here's what they have on BoxRec under the Cavaliere bout:

Henry Hascup's record for Cavalier in IBRO # 55 shows two Newspaper scores for this fight, 7-3 and 8-2 in favor of Cavalier.

Ezzard Charles had 25 official losses.

Leon Spinks has one of the worst record for being a HW champ.

Unfortunately, it might be Greg Page.
