just few stats about current title holders in boxing

[paypayvay]

Tavoris Cloud being 5'10 ain't unusual for a Light Heavyweight. Mike Tyson was a Heavyweight and he was like 5'10 too. Don't know, this info just stood out to me the most.

what stood out to me the most is the japanese kid kazuto ioka who somehow got a title in his 7 th pro fight at age 21

Leon Spinks fought and beat Muhammad Ali in his 8th pro fight.

ioka had a pretty good amateur record as well...I'm not sure how well known he is in japan but maybe it had to do more with the then current title holder, Oleydong Sithsamerchai, thinking "oh well heres an easy ass fight! 6-0! oooohhh I'm so scared!" lol. Ioka worked him over pretty good. I like this kid.

lol i forgot that the previous champion was a thai


they'll defend their titles against guys making their debut for all they care ( generalization , but pretty common over there )

right, for example his fight prior to losing the title was against an 0-2 guy.

So did Leon Spinks, or perhaps it was his 8th.

Sorry for duplication, I saw the info after I posted.

Interesting! I found it strange that strawweight champ Ricardo Lopez was nearly the same height(1/2 inch) as Dwight Muhammad Qawi. Qawi even fought at heavyweight.
