    Which arena took the titles of three World Champions, which had a total of at least eleven succesful title defenses between them. All on the same night in the same ring. Where is the arena, date of card, & fighters who lost thier championships on the same night.

    Great try, but I dont believe. Randall or Simon Brown had accumilated eleven succesful defenses.

    No, on my header I mistakenly put an extra "T" on titles. Hahaha, that was a good catch.
