Rocky Marciano lost 4 amateur fights prior to becoming a Pro for good. Those loses were to:

Henry Lester (loss via DQ because of using his knee)

Coley Wallace

Bob Girard (won by decision despite the fact that Marciano fought with a broken hand)

Joe DeAngelis

After he became a full time Pro, he went on to go undefeated with a record of 49-0.

Why not Ingemar Johansson???

EarlsSister said...

Ingemar Johansson
Amateur 61-10
Pro 26-2

Evander Holyfield
Amateur 160-14
Pro 42-10- 2

The question was MORE LOSSES

EarlsSister said...

There is no trick question. It says, What Heavyweight boxer had more losses as an amateur than as a pro?

Holyfield has the highest number of losses in his amatuer career than he does his pro career.

Johansson was close but Holyfield had more losses as an amateur.

The question says Heavyweight, Johansson had more loses then Holyfield and but there are several that were right.

EarlsSister, What sense are you trying to make? Several boxers had more losses in their amateur career than pro career.

"Holyfield has the highest number of losses in his amatuer career than he does his pro career"
That statement does not even make grammatical sense.

Yes he had 14 amateur losses compared to 10 pro losses. Lewis had 7 amateur losses and 2 pro losses. Johansson 10 and 2, respectively. All had more losses as amateurs than pros, which as I recall is what the question asked (What Heavyweight boxer had more losses as an amateur than as a pro?).

"The question was MORE LOSSES"
No. If you could read you would know that wasn't the question. The question simply asked who had more losses as an amateur than pro. There were no other terms to the question. Not who had the most losses, or any other leap of logic you are attempting to make.

If the question had read "Among heavyweight boxers who suffered more losses as amateurs than professionals, who suffered the most losses as an amateur?", then yes Holyfield could be a viable answer. However, the question did not go into specifics anywhere near that level, it simply asked which boxer(s) had more losses as an amateur, which we have shown to include multiple boxers.

If you wanna rip at people, at least be right. You only make yourself look bad.

reality check- holyfield was cruiserweight, not heavyweight

Anonymous said...

Holyfield started as a crusier weight. He was a heavyweight when he fought Tyson!

I always thought Evander bulked up aweful quick and I always had suspicions of steriods.
