          He fought 35 fights in four years (1985 - 1989). Including Berbick, Tucker, Holmes, Spinks and Bruno. Awesome. Makes today's heavyweights look lazy.

            i don't know, i think wilfred benitez beating cervantes (a hall of famer in his prime ) at the age of 17 is pretty ridiculous.
            On March 6, 1976, at age 17, with his High School classmates in attendance, he faced WBA Light Welterweight champion Antonio Cervantes. Known as Kid Pambele, the champion was 30 years old, had a record of 74-9-3 with 35 KO's, and had made 10 title defenses. The result was a fifteen-round split decision in Benitez's favor.

                He was a Beast and was so angry and hungry he sparked a new era of boxing history when he became the youngest heavyweight champion.

                    Wilfredo Benitez becoming a world champ @ 17 is more impressive IMO....and he beat Kid Pambele to do it
