wehey took me ages to think through all the fighters that carried on into their 40s that i knew of, good question though

[amat]

This is really hard as I have no clue. But a big vote of confidence for the trivia.

[CutMeMick]

I like this trivia question as it's one of me favorites and one I think everyone should know.


Who Am I?

3 major titles in 3 different weight classes.
A total of 16 defenses on the 3 belts.
Never lost a title match afte he won the belts.

[OumaFan]

I won't answer that. I remember you doing that one before and I remember the answer so let other people have it.

[CutMeMick]

Name at least 7 fighters who left the sport as Champions?

(I did 7 cause I think 4 of them should be obvious so that leaves 3 to really think about)

[CutMeMick]

This fighter admitted to shooting up heroin prior to one of his title fights?

[CutMeMick]

He won the World Sup. Feather title and never lost it, defended it 4 times.
Then his World title turned into (2) belts (when the WBC & WBA were formed) he went on to defend the title a total of 10 times before he lost.

Marciano
Salvador Sanchez
Khaosai Galaxy
Ricardo Lopez
Eder Joffre
Michael Carbajal
Carlos Monzon

Strangely enough it was Monzon I was stuck on.

Pretty surprised I got those. I won't lie, I used boxrec to confirm that Joffre ended his career with a title but I didn't use it to come up with the answers.
