    Sonny Liston’s pro debut, and all the wins that came after it.

    Very true, also I thought he won the first fight with Pazienza and DEFINITELY was robbed in his first fight with Camacho.

    Agreed. Weirdly judges have seemingly conspired to let Foreman keep that oldest HW champ record. Holmes should have beat it in ‘97 against Neilsen and Holyfield should have beat it in ‘08 against Valuev. Both were robbed.

    nothing against Foreman. Absolute legend. But both men should have beaten his record there, and Holmes should hold the “oldest champ ever at any weight” accolade.

    Zhang's wins against Joyce at 40 were impressive considering Joyce beat Parker and Dubois.

    Prior to first Joyce fight - Zhang was a BIG underdog.
