Heavyweight Champions Hitting the Deck
A list of how many times the lineal Heavyweight Champion of the World was knocked down.
This list was created by the posters over at BoxRec. It was a collective effort but the main research was done by a poster using the moniker Ambling Alp II. I added in the dates, venues, and results.
I thought you all might find it a useful reference. Please feel free to point out any errors.
