    Ali winning the HW title 3 times.
    Hopkins oldest to win a major title?
    Armstrong featherweight,lightweight,welterweight champ?
    Chavez 89-0?

    George Foreman - longest interval between championship reigns. Won the HW title in 1973 then again in 1994. That will never ever happen again

      Archie Moore's number of knockouts.
      Willie Pep boxed more rounds than anyone.
      The number of hall of famers that Harry Greb beat.

          Ancient Greek boxer Theogenes competed in over 1500 to the death matches and retired undefeated. You don't want to fight him. Not much dancing involved. These fellows sat chained to stone blocks, their knees touching, for their matches.

            I think Jimmy McLarnin beat more HOF'ers than Greb if I'm not mistaken.

              I'm not sure, you can be right.

                Good question. I'm gonna go with Armstrong. The stuff with the 200+ fights or KO records could be broken if the sport completely changes its activity level in the future.

                  Floyd MAYweather making 280 million in one night...

                  A fight doing 4.4 million U.S. PPv buys

                  A fight generating over half a billion in revenue...


                  No fight will ever come close to floyd/manny.. If it does, probably won't be a boxing fight but an mma fight

                    No you're right - it's indeed Greb who holds the record.
