    I believe Jack Dempsey lost to Fireman Jim Flynn in his first Pro fight

    Who exactly is Sorry? And if you're referring to Sor Rungvisai, you have no clue what you're talking about, an overhyped fighter would not defeat Chocolatito or Gallo Estrada. His skillset is deceptive as hell, he's got a ton of subtle little wrinkles in his game that most novices miss. He's great at cutting off the ring, has underrated defense, is an excellent counter puncher, great punch selection, good footwork, handspeed, and excellent combinations. If anything he's UNDERRATED and UNDERHYPED.

    If you're referring to Siri. Then find another sport to watch.:ohno

    Mills Lane was knocked out in his first professional match, only had 10 more fights after that (won them all). Very successful career as a referee afterwards.
