What do these four have in common?
I know for sure Arguello and Hopkins lost their first pro fight, so I'll guess the same for the other two as well.
Yeah I always think of the opening loss when I see Hopkins mentioned in a question like this. That is the answer by the way.
Hmm well that was too easy I guess.
Yeah it was kind of easy. Here's another, probably also easy
Name one thing that Alexis Arguello has accomplished in the ring, that no other boxer has accomplished. Be careful how you word your answer.
the first to win titles in 3 different division since armstrong? nearly the first to win in 4 division, if aaron hadn't cheated? ;DQuote:

never heard about the assasination attempt. But he is the only boxer who has won titles in three or more weight divisions, all by defeating a reigning champion in the ring, and who has never lost a title defence. Even Floyd can't claim that.
Damn I knew this one. It was on CutMeMick's sigi.
Do another CGM
i got one, name three fighters that changed they're name to a muslim name?
Lets make it light heavyweights from the same decade. ;DQuote:

by the way. I worded my Arguello answer wrong. You have to add that each title was defended at least once.
well that was easy ;DQuote:

I don't know a lot of boxing trivia, but here goes...
Which famous musician released an album named after a heavyweight champion?
One more...
What world champion boxer appeared in the ring with Robert deNiro in the movie Raging Bull. There may be more than one answer, I'm not sure.
Eddie Mustafa Muhammed, no idea on the album title though.Quote:
