have never been KD or KO'd in their career. Forgetting the Roldan KD which was bogus, Hagler is an obvious one. Are there many more? Active fighters not included
GEORGE CHUVALO was on espn not long ago boasting he was never knocked down. Never. Lamotta I was sure never got knocked down neither ,but he may have had one slip up at the very end of hs career. Even so I put him in the Chuvalo/Hagler category as far as chins. Hagler got ruled a knockdown ,but it wasn't .
But Lamatta got stopped....I am wondering how many fighters were never knocked down or stopped in their career. Is Hagler the only one?
if you've ever seen the footage of it, it looks more like a push considering lamotta was shot and exhausted
i have saw footage i know it was pretty rubbish but he was KO'd offically i dont doubt his chin though it was excellant
That's tough:think. Borderline impossible, but I don't believe NIKOLAI VALUEV has ever been down/stopped yet. OLIVER McCALL excellent chin was never downed ( but he did get the strange breakdown Lennox Lewis stoppage) BARNEY ROSS suffered only one 'flash' knockdown out of his 81 fights (won 72 & loss 4)
Valuev is still active so he doesn't count. Lamotta was stopped by SRR. McCall stopped by Lewis. So Hagler and Billy Graham the only ones? Any others, people?
Rubbish, sure Hagler to a point lost his footing, but there is no doubt Roldan clipped him with a punch. It was 50/50 whether the ref called it a knockdown, and he choose too, thus Hagler was floored as a pro.
I, Sugar Ray Leonard & others simply saw it as a push/punch to the 'BACK' of the HEAD of a retreating Hagler. No argument with you here because it is technically a moot point, but REFS are human & make mistakes like the idiot I just watched again last night allow Griffith to pummel an unconcious Paret.:-( So 'technically' we only have Billy Graham?
