    Who am I?

    I want to offer more hints, but feel like they'd be too huge a tip off.

    I will say that it's a fighter whose entire career took place within the last 20 years, though no longer active today.

    And here's another hint, and a very big one - you couldn't be further off in your guess to his P4P status. In fact at one point, some had as the very best, or at least certainly close to it.

    OK, any more than that and I might as well tell you the answer!

      I'm pretty sure you're correct. I did a lot of boxrecing and it's apparently very impressive that Oscar never fought a guy with a losing record. Most everyone took a few fights against losing record competition. Oscar didn't take one.

        Si, Oscar de la Hoya it was.

        Went 22-0 (20) to start his career, but scoring knockdowns in each of the two fights that went the distance, and all 22 fights (along with every other opponent in his career) coming against fighters with winning records.

          • OK here's another one:

            I wasn't undefeated, but never lost a title fight and knocked out every Hall of Fame fighter I've ever faced, including my very last fight.

            Who am I?

                  Nope... nor did Monzon knock him out in his final fight.

                      Answer: Winky Wright.


                      Okay that was easy right? I'll start us off:
                      "I was scheduled for a "sweet" welter weight fight when I was stopped in 1 by a shower door!" Who am I?
