Answer a question - Ask the next one.

Lets see if it catches on.

To start: Heavyweight journeyman Jesse Fergusson has fought 11 past/future World Champions and lost to 10 of them, which did he not lose to?

by Rowley Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:24 pm

Buster Douglas

Charlie Burley beat champions at welter, middle and light heavy, name any two of them

by samevans1 Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:28 pm

I thought Jesse Ferguson beat Ray Mercer?

by Scottrf Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:29 pm

Archie Moore, Fritzie Zivic.

Presuming that's correct...Who is the only man to score a knockdown against Shane Mosley? (as far as I know!)

Fought him twice Sam, that's why I worded it carefully.

by samevans1 Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:30 pm

Fritzie Zivic and Archie Moore, to answer your question Jeff.

Who did Oscar De La Hoya defeat to win his first world title and in what weight class?

by samevans1 Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:30 pm

Vernon Forrest.

by John Bloody Wayne Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:31 pm

Vernon Forrest

Which boxer has more pro wins than any other?

by John Bloody Wayne Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:32 pm

rudey poo, you must've posted while I were writing. ignore mine then...

by samevans1 Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:32 pm

I was slightly quicker on that one; will stick with my previous question.

by Rowley Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:33 pm

Should have really tested your mettle and asked for all three

by **Union Cane** Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:35 pm

Vernon Forrest (twice)

Who reigned as heavyweight boxing champ of Uganda from 1951-1960?

by samevans1 Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:36 pm

You are too slow, Union Cane.

Will stick with the previous question.

Who did Oscar De La Hoya defeat to win his first world title and in what weight class?

by Rowley Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:38 pm

Union am I right in thinking that was Idi Amin?

by Scottrf Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:38 pm

Idi Amin.

The De La Hoya one is a killer, but it's SFW.

by Rowley Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:41 pm

Was the DLH one Paez. I know he was one of his earlier world titles but is a pure guess

by samevans1 Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:41 pm

Correct weight; who was the fighter?

by samevans1 Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:42 pm

Paez incorrect.

by **Union Cane** Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:43 pm

Ok samevans1, keep your hair on mate.

Yes it was Idi Amin.

Some foreign sounding SuperFeather, Brohlin or Dahlin or summat like that.

by Gentleman01 Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:43 pm

Genarro Hernandez?

by samevans1 Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:44 pm

If it sounded rude, wasn't meant to be so. Apologies if misinterpreted.

by samevans1 Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:45 pm

Nope, beat Genaro Hernandez when he was a lightweight titlist and Hernandez was a super-feather champion.

by Scottrf Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:46 pm

Can't think of anything before Ruelas to be honest, wrong weight too.

by Rowley Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:48 pm

Was it Bredahl?

by Imperial Ghosty Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:50 pm

Beat me to it Jeff

by samevans1 Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:51 pm

Jimmi Bredahl is correct, at SFW.

by Rodney Fri 25 Feb 2011, 3:52 pm

Think Jeff is right with Bredahl, I would've said Jorge Paez

Rodders

by **Union Cane** Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:17 pm

A deathly silence fell....

Which Canadian went through his whole 93 fight career without once being knocked down?

by Gentleman01 Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:18 pm

George Chuvalo?

by Scottrf Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:20 pm

George Chuvalo...

At least you can see when someone gets in first on this forum.

by **Union Cane** Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:21 pm

Chuvalo indeed.

Your turn...

by STC Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:22 pm

Terry Marsh.

by Gentleman01 Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:23 pm

Nice easy one for you then lads…

Who is the only American Heavyweight to have both won and lost his title outside of the United States?

by **Union Cane** Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:24 pm

Terry Marsh?

"Location: Near Scunthorpe"

Nuff said...

by Scottrf Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:26 pm

Ali - Zaire and Manilla (Phillippines?). Doh, brain told me that was fight of the century but ignored it. I'll leave the question asking to Windy...

I can think of two, Gentleman01.

Johnson and Foreman.

by Imperial Ghosty Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:29 pm

Same as me Windy

Ah, well I had Foreman in mind, but you're absolutely spot on about Johnson winning in Oz and losing in Cuba... A gross oversight on my part. Apologies.

No probs, Gentleman.

Ghosty, since you haven't posed one I will.

Who was the first southpaw world champion ?

by Gentleman01 Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:32 pm

Al McCoy

by Gentleman01 Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:33 pm

An early opportunity to redeem myself, being a southy myself this is a subject I actually do know a bit about... At least I hope I do...

by **HumanWindmill** Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:33 pm

Spot on, Sir.

Think you're correct, we had it the other day, but I wouldn't have remembered. Too late on a friday...

Which Heavyweight champion has the highest % of KO's?

by Imperial Ghosty Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:48 pm

Vitali Klitscko?

by Gentleman01 Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:50 pm

imperialghosty wrote:Vitali Klitscko?

That is correct Ghosty. Vitali has roughly a 91% KO ration I believe.

by Imperial Ghosty Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:51 pm

Not many actual KO's in that 91% though

Who was the first left handed heavyweight world champion?

by Scottrf Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:53 pm

Michael Moorer?

Unless we have a converted lefty?

by **Union Cane** Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:53 pm

You said 'has', so...

Vitali Klitschko (92%)
David Haye (92%)
Wlad Klitschko (89%)

Its a tie between VK and Haye.

by Gentleman01 Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:53 pm

I'm actually rather disappointed you got that one so quickly ghosty. I was hoping that one may have occupied you all for at least 5 minutes... Must try harder!

by **HumanWindmill** Fri 25 Feb 2011, 4:55 pm

imperialghosty wrote:Not many actual KO's in that 91% though

James J Corbett was a lefty who converted, as was Jeffries, strangely enough.
