Saoul Mamby what a legend.Originally Posted by BoomBoom
Crafty fighter and good on his feet you hardly read or hear his name in boxing circles. This dude fought in 5 decades the only other boxer I can think of is Duran who also fought in 5 decades. Durans the oldest fighter to fight for a legit title when he fought Joppy.
Foreman fought through 4 decades.

Jack Johnson also fought at the age of 60.
Kentucky Rosebud (aka Walter Edgerton) fought his last pro fight at 61, or 63 as some may have it.
A lot of guys fought into their 40's and 50's.
If you hear a voice within you saying that I am not a painter, then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced.
