    Unfortunately, none. They start at 50, which is a massive shame.

    Wilder is the most protected 'named' fighter out there.... His record is padded to ****. I'd fancy Audley massively here....

    TKO A-Force

    If he does get this fight, he has broken the mould, as he has not won a professional fight since beating Adams.

    As much as I hate it Prizefighter goes onto a fighter's record and counts as 3 wins. No matter how limited the opposition.

    If that is the case, where is Richard Dunn's? He fought numerous one night tournaments in the late 60s. Where is Foreman's five fights in Toronto?

    In this era fighters do not fight three professional bouts in one night. Yes they might have an exhibition of boxing with three opponents, there is a great tradition of this, particularly in small hall shows, normally to get a promoter out of a hole due to a no show or injury. But these bouts do not count on fighters professional record.

    He's showing that, sadly, the Prizefighter fights do count towards a fighter's professional record.

    I believe the BBBoC did ponder over their inclusions for a while but eventually decided in their favour which is why so many of those who have won have gone on to fight for a domestic title on the basis of their success.

    This, its a shame because he should knock Wilder the **** out, even at this late stage of his career.
