Which world champion had the shortest career?

[Lords Gym]

I'll tell yeah a fighter that was a terrific little buzz saw, WBA Lightweight Champion Orzubek Nazarov, you talk about carrying a punch, this little buzz saw was action packed. Had to end his carrar after only 27 fights due to a detacted retnia he suffered vs Jean Baptiste Mendy.. Wish i could find some footage of this Russian power house to share with everyone. all my VHS collection got ruined in storage ! 26-1-(19 kos)

The name rings a bell for some reason but I just can't either put a face to it or remember a fight of his but it's rining a bell either I've seen, read or something but the Nazarov part rings a bell....

Oscar was huge on him ! a big fan.

Didn't he fight Gamache?
For some reason I remember seeing highlights of that fight on TV somewhere, sometime.... Shit! I hate it when this happens I'm thinking when and where......

I can remember Orzubek Nazarov knocking Gamache down 4 times in 2 rounds. The final knock down was every bit as vicious as what Gatti would do to Joey years later . Gamache lay there motionless.

Nazarov 's body shots sounded like a heavyweight delivery. he would rip that body something special ! Cool click Mick !
