  • Guess the fighters that these records belong to

    Here is a list of 10 records in the format Wins (KOs) - Losses - Draws/No contests.

    I've picked some well known guys (retired or no longer active) for the most part, lets see how good NSB's fight fans are at remembering or figuring out who are defined by these numbers.

    1. 77(47)-10-3
    2. 50(44)-6-2
    3. 58(38)-4
    4. 36(25)-3-1
    5. 55(49)-6
    6. 44(29)-10-2
    7. 56(40)-7-1
    8. 40(17)-4-1
    9. 61(48)-5-1
    10. 54(37)-21-2

    Edit: So as not to ruin it for others who want to try I will PM you to tell you which ones you've got right.

                  this is super difficult and i expect most of you to cheat.


                  if you gave me the times they were stopped in their losses i'd have a much, much easier time of this. as it stands it's almost impossible not to just be taking a "good guess" based on how many fights, how many wins a guy had, etc.


                  only easy one on that list is ray leonard. dubious draw to hearns, short ass career for a bonafide all time great.

                    Lool Yeah there is a strong element of guessing needed..... you have to been exposed to these fight records time and time again and have good memory to have any chance.
