Many of the UK guys with horrible records (over 100 losses) have few stoppage losses and they seem to serve a useful purpose. They are designated losers if you will, but are savvy enough to stay out of harm;'s way. I cakk these guys the New Centurions.
Peter “Desperate” Dunn is no longer desperate. He became a Centurion
of sorts when he lost his 100th fight on September 26, 2008.
He currently is at a useful 12-102 (KO 11) - 4; and has done some
serious barnstorming, albeit losing, across the UK. Paul Bonson has
reached 102 and sports an astounding record of 20-102-8; astounding
because he only has been stopped three times. He is also capable
of the occasional upset.
It appears these lads are in a three-way race with Tony Booth (105
losses) to see who can lose the most the quickest!
Nigel “The Centurion”Rafferty, 26-69-9, put a different spin on the
term, but fell far short in the loss column.
And let’s not forget centurion Seamus “West” Casey at 30 (KO 5)-
129 (KO 33)-5 in 164 outings
These blokes fight often and seldom are stopped. There are many others.
I don't think THEY need to retire.
