    On a side note, I wonder who holds the record for the most countries fought in. Off the top of my head, I can't think of anyone who beats Ali's 11.

    Edit: Sugar Ray Robinson has 13: USA, UK, France, Belgium, Italy, Austria, Jamaica, Canada, Dominican Republic, Switzerland, Germany, Canada and Mexico.

        The first name that immediately popped into my head was Panama Al Brown, and doing a quick count of him, I had him fighting in 15 different countries.
