The terms journeyman, contender and club fighter have rather expansive definitions within the world of boxing in this day and age. It can be used in different ways, sometimes in a derogatory way, meaning a fighter is beneath the level he believes he is at. The positive side of the definition is about how these fighters are crucial to the sport of boxing. The tales of club fighters within the USA and journeymen also are that of sporting romance. Anyone who has competed in sports will have stories, but those of club fighters and journeymen always seem to be out there a little more than most.

He won 118 fights and lost 7. That's a very good career no matter if he never won the biggest fights.

He won his first 37 before he ran into JCC but not a lot people beat JCC anyways.

To think, not many guys even fight 40 fights let alone 125.

Have gloves will travel. Props!
