Is there anyone without a padded record?

Yeah looking at ODLH's record I feel a little bad for giving him shit for fighting Forbes, he has put his work in and deserves a little bit of a gimme.

Kostya Tszyu fought La Porte in his 4th fight, and Bramble in his 10th, then won a world title in his 14th i think.

Guys like ODLH, Tszyu and Gamboa can be moved along faster because of their long amature careers.

I wanted to say Holyfield, but his record has a few soft touches in their at both ends...

Great post! It has me going through my list of tough guys...

Holyfield is probably the closest thing to a guy u cannot accuse of having a padded record. Mainly because nearly all his toughest opponents were way bigger than him. Good pick up mate.

Although he also has a soft beginning (high school gyms and all), I would still recommend Marvelous Marvin Hagler for not being padded.
If you excuse his late 70's fights (which he had to take b/c no one would fight him for their title), he was fighting all top 10's until his disgusted end.

Thx for the big up... As I see it, he fought for the world title within his first twelve fights, unified the division, moved up in weight, stayed top 10 his whole career, won the title 4 times and only got soft when his self proclaimed 'arm problem' earned him all of those losses.

Damn... he just fought for the 'title' last year!!!
