Seriously. 39-5-3 by itself would be considered a very good record, period - especially from back in the times when fighters took on all comers and did so with high frequency.

Nearly 50 rematches is just insane by today's standards. I don't feel like looking, but I doubt Mayweather and Pacquiao combined have even a fifth that many.

 

Lazy *******s. :yep

Hagler and Charles were great in this category, yes. Holyfield and Nelson didn't fare quite as well.

Leo Gamez, 2nd meeting November 1990 W12
Hiroki Ioka, 2nd meeting November 1992 W12


I think the criteria for inclusion here should be quantity and/or quality. Yuh, for instance, didn't have all that many (compared to a freak like SRR) but he never lost a rematch, and those are all nice names to have a pair of wins over (or an avenged loss, in the case of Ioka).

Other submissions should be along those lines - ie people like Mitchell who wound up beating every man they shared the ring with, even if it took more than one try...or people who won a few very important rematches, if not lots of them.

 

Yikes.

OK. I'll filter out Newspaper decisions, too.
