    Will any Boxer ever reach 100+ Fights again?

    think anyone ever will?? i think its unlikely because of how much boxing has changed. firstly alot of great fighters had so many fights because they needed to pay the bills, also it takes so much longer for fights to get made now. Robinson sometimes fought twice in like 3 weeks

    Heres a few who reached 100 bouts (some had alot more)

    Sugar Ray Robinson: 200
    Archie Moore: 220
    Roberto Duran: 119
    Julio Chavez: 115

    just a few from the top of my head, theres a lot more. Correct me if im wrong but i think Chavez was the last guy to reach 100 fights retiring in 2005. Hopkins is at 58 (59 inc Roy Jones) but he'll never make 100. Wlad is on 56, which is good but most modern day Boxers will unlikely have even 50 fights under their belt by the time they call it a day. Is it even possible to do now lol ? ?

    someone like a Saul Alvarez might. That kid has 30 plus fights and is only 19 years old. he has a fight in march then another fight lined up in May. I truly see him fighting 7-9 times a year (he already does this BTW) under golden boy and them nickle'ing and dime'ing the his fan base like Top Rank does with Chavez Jr.

          JOurney men can reach 100 + fights but it will be rare to see an elite fighter do that

            it's doubtful that there's ever going to be another elite fighter with over 100 fights

              Lol, I was about to name him as soon as I saw the thread title.

              He's only 24 and has already 42 fights.

                  Saul Alvarez will be an elite fighter. He is only 19 and has 30 fights. Also he fights 7-8 times a year and actually has a fight in March then another in May. So I can Mosdef see him as a 100 plus fighter.
