Top 50 Fighters to Never Win a World Title

All good names :good Now the question is, whom on the list would you replace with any of those names?

 

Correct you are. He had the NBA version. My bad. Making a list like this drains your brain sometimes and makes you miss the obvious.

Appreciate the correction.

And Memphis Pal was definitely one I considered. Where would you put him?

 

Clarke is a great shout. But where would you place these guys?

 

Too bad you didn't mention anything before. I was just in Memphis last month, about a stone's throw from the library. I will be going back in the Fall. I'll look up that fight, scan and send.

 

2 of those three are on the list (Shade and Tendler) :smoke

 

I was trying to accommodate our British brethren there. Didn't want the list to be too America-centric.

Cuddy? He beat world champs Benny Bass and Mike Ballerino. Had two nice wins over Jack Zivic, who was a top contender at both lightweight and welter(and was at one time considered a possible successor to Benny Leonard upon BL's retirement). Beat top contenders like Eddie Kid Wagner, Jack Bernstein, Dick Conlon, Joey Silvers. Held Billy Petrolle to a draw. He was Harry Greb's stablemate and blamed Red Mason and Greb for not being able to get a welterweight title shot, due to the latter's unwillingness to negotiate with gangsters.

 

Tendler is on the list
