    Yeah with so many belts these days, it could happen

    I actually think Tyson being the youngest HW champ at 20 might be harder to break. If you think of what are considered prospects today to win a world title like Dubois or someone, he’s already 22.

    When you consider how huge today’s heavyweights are, it’d be hard to imagine a heavyweight turning pro at 16/17 and picking up a title at 20

        George Foreman winning world championship twice 20 years apart.

        Ray Sugar Robinson - 202 pro fights, winning the big majority of them.

        Mike Tyson, a heavyweight champ by 20.

          I agree, there might never be a 20 years old heavyweight champion ever again.

            - -Manny setting Ring records for the most P4P fighters fought, beat, and KOed has no precedent and won't ever be repeated without skullduggery involved.

            Also a Ring ranked p4p for 12 consecutive yrs.

              Oscar fighting fighters who were rated #1 p4p in any point of their careers, like Pernell Whitaker, Julio Cesar Chavez, Felix Trinidad, Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather.... Don't recall if Mosley was #1 p4p after Trinidad lost or if Hopkins ever was.

                Its easier to become a title holder than ever. Its harder to become The HW champion.

                You need all 4 belts. You need to stay atop all these bs mandos. You need a promoter & platform that wont cause issues that make you lose a belt over dumb sh^t.

                There is more sh^t in the way to become The HW champion then ever before & thats why since the main title got split & the IBF & WBO titles came to be acccepted there are fewer one champion divisions in boxing then any era since they started with divisions in the first place.
                Ah I see what you mean. Yeah definitely

                  So I browsed the internet a bit and here is some more crazy numbers:

                  * Willie Pep – Two unbeaten Streaks of at Least 62 Fights
                  * Wilfredo Gomez/Gennady Golovkin – 17 Straight KO’s in World Title Defenses
                  * Willie Pep – Most Career Wins (229)
                  * Harry Stone – 222 Bouts Without Being Stopped
                  * Henry Armstrong – Five World Title Fights in 22 Days <- absolute madness! Can't imagine this today.
                  * Danny O’ Sullivan – Knocked Down 14 Times in World Title Fight
                  * Peter Maher – 50 First-Round Knockouts
                  * Henry Armstrong – Simultaneous World Champ In Three Weight Divisions
                  * Len Wickwar – 470 Career Bouts <- another madman
                  * Eric Crumble – 31 Straight Losses By Knockout

                  * Julio Cesar Chavez – 87-0 to Start Career
