    Just for sheer volume, there was a British Lightweight from the 1930's by the name of Len Wickwar, whose acknowledged as having the records for both number of professional wins and number of professional fights. You guys can look it up for yourselves, but the numbers are close to 350(wins) and 450(fights) respectively.

        Have any of you heard of a guy called Felix Savon?

        He's a Cuban Amatuer at heavyweight... He retired a few years ago.

        I know he's not a pro, but his accomplishments in the amatuer ring are second to none!

          yeah im not huge on amatuer boxing to be honest its too sanitised but of course the Great Cuban master is probably the best heavyweight never to win a world title. (in the pros that is)

              That's impressive, but it was just amatuers. Vernon Forrest was 225-16 in the amateurs. It's not as good as Savon's record, but still, it's a lot easier to do that in the amateurs.
