Oldest Pro Fighter of All Time?

larry holmes had his last fight (against Eric `Butterbean` Esch ) at age 53.

Saoul Mamby was almost 61 when he had his last fight.

Saoul Mamby - Boxer

wow

Mamby was a freak. 5 decade boxer, narrowly, what a trip.

If Duran did not have that car accident i think he would have managed to be fighting even now. His genetic make up to be a boxer was unbelievable.

I checked Duran when I saw the thread. Thought he might have been slightly older than Holmes. Mamby is amazing though really. When you look at the average 61 year old, they don't look like they could cause much damage in a fight let alone get in a ring and compete professionally.

King Hippo maybe. Nobody even knows his age.
