    Ali is the oldest surviving heavyweight champ. He's 73

    Raging Bull - Jake La Motta is the oldest surviving champ in all weight divisions. He's 93.

    P.S
    I could well be wrong on the Jake La Motta being oldest surviving champ in all divisions, but he's going to right up there at 93, if not the oldest.

    It's got to be Lamotta, boxers don't generally live to see 90, he's a freak of nature

    I saw Jake about two years ago receiving an award. He was in a wheel chair, but he was still throwing punches.

    I thought Jimmy McLarnin beat him but he only made it to 98.
