    Ponsaklek Wonjongkam didn't exactly avenge all of his defeats, but he's beaten all three guys who have beaten him in his career.

    Joe Louis was more worn down physcially, he had title 11 years, and was coming off retiremt. Lennox Lewis was not worn out, had matured later in life than Joe Louis. Tyson won title at 18, Walcott at 37, people are different.

    Pongsaklek Wonjongkam is an interesting story. He twice lost to a guy named Jerry Pahayahay but beat him in their 3rd fight, then he twice beat Daisuke Naito before losing and drawing with him, if a 5th fight ever happens, he has an excellent chance of avaging all defeats even though he's ahead in the rivalry anyway.

    Myung Woo Yuh.

    His sole loss came nearing the end of his career. He fought a man named Hiroki Ioki in Japan and lost by a close, disputed decision. Yuh was obviously devastated, but after taking a year out of the sport, he returned to rematch the same man, again in Japan, and this time won fairly handily on the scorecards. Yuh holds the record for consecutive title defenses at 108lbs.
