    Did your boxer’s championship come at 160 pounds or above?

    That is my understanding per earlier posts by/discussions with @Rubber Glove Sandwich but he should answer.

    The idea being if I’m out, I can’t take away any of the precious 20 darts still left to be thrown from someone still in the game who is angling in on it.

    This is correct. If you guess incorrectly, you can't ask any questions.

    - Does Your boxer have more than 100 career fights? (In case there's some confusion due to newspaper decisions being counted or not - let's go by boxrec).

    Boxrec contradicts itself in this regard.

    The W-L-D record displayed in the heading of the fighters first page does not include newspaper decisions in no decision bouts.

    However, an opponents record going into an individual fight does include newspaper decisions.

    E.g. Boxrec list Harry Greb as 109-9-3 on the header of his first page, whereas on Tiger Flowers page Harry Greb is listed as being 265-18-17 going to their rematch, which was Harry’s final bout. So, according to boxrec, Greb contested 301 x fights, including no decision bouts.

    I'm staying at my sister's place this weekend and most likely won't be as active on here. Feel free to ask questions or take guesses, I'll just be more late than usual in responding.

    Feel welcome to count this as either a clarification or an additional question, whichever you see fits best - you've answered that your boxer has more than 12 draws; and less than 100 fights, excluding no decision bouts. Does he have more than 12 draws excluding no decision bouts?
