    Round 3 is officially over.

    Round 1: Sugar Ramos 15/20 Final guess: @Saintpat
    Round 2: Glen Johnson 19/20 Final guess: @Mastrangelo
    Round 3: Marvin Camel 13/20 Final guess: @Dorrian_Grey

    Before we start round 4, how did we feel about the one guess per poster rule? I personally liked it and am planning to keep it unless I'm out voted.

    I think if this is a consistent feature it would be a huge positive for the classic forum, it’s one of the only threads I have anticipation for. Great work @Rubber Glove Sandwich so far the rules seem really solid too.

    You should study up on Marvin. He was not only the first world cruiserweight champ (WBC — he fought Mate Parlov to a draw in the initial bout for the vacant belt, then won the rematch) but he also won the first cruiserweight title fight of any sort (beating Bill Sharkey for the USBA) and later won the IBF and NABF titles.

    Split two decisions with Matthew Saad Muhammad on the way up as a light heavy before cruiser was invented.

    Most importantly, perhaps, he was the first Native American world champ, born on the Flathead Reservation in Montana. He wore an absolutely gorgeous feathered headdress to the ring and was no doubt an inspiration to an entire generation of reservation kids.

    I’ve never heard or read anything negative about him. I think he took his responsibility as a role model very seriously in being one of the few true Native Americans on the world stage not only in sport, but in the public eye in any way.

    Props to @Rubber Glove Sandwich for spotlighting Camel. Introducing him to even one boxing fan who’d never heard of him is a service to the sport.

    I mean it was a southpaw named Marvin who fought Matthew Saad Muhammad twice so you were almost there.

    Thanks for all your kind words. I'm not sure how long I'll be doing this because college is coming up soon but I would like to at least get to 15 rounds.

    Round 4 is a go.

    0/20

    One guess per poster rule is still in effect. I will try to remember to say a reminder once the first guess happens.

    Boxer must be a professional who won some sort of claim to a world title at some point in their career.
