    Since you of course know all the men, who fought from fly to heavyweight... I figured you would check out Kid's record and come up with the correct answer:thumbsup

    Chris Arreola's biggest weight gain between 2 fights was just 19½ lbs... so he's not the one we're looking for.

    The Sands brothers are of course "prime suspects" in a question like this - and you came up with 3 different men, who beat 3 of them. Again, well done!
    (there are other correct answers to this question, though)

    You nailed it once more, hh... Dillon is our man:good
    (again, it's possible to come up with another, who ties Dillon with 10)

    Round 10:

    In 1924, Greb fought the following HOFers:

    Kid Norfolk
    Gene Tunney
    Tommy Loughran
    Tiger Flowers
    Jimmy Slattery

    That's 5.

    4 is good enough for 2nd place in this category... but before Billy and Frankie there were two other brothers, who fought the same 5 HOFers!

    As you will probably have seen by now, hh has already mentioned Dillon... but maybe you can name the other guy, who ties Dillon at 10?

    Round 5:

    I think it is Vince Dundee, who fought 6 Middleweight champs:

    Freddie Steele
    Teddy Yarosz
    Lou Brouillard
    Al McCoy
    Ken Overlin
    Babe Risko
