GREAT guess BUT they never did that.

Like I said, it's a very hard question because it wasn't even in BoxRec, until just now, when I put it in. Now it should be a little easier.

 

I kind of suspected the Jimenez brothers, but I didn`t really know about Chino... only Natalio and Fremio.

 

YES! GREAT JOB!

The Jiminez brothers - Chino, Fremio & Natalio - each scored a knockout on the same card on February 22, 1964, in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Chino needed only 3 rounds to stop Lucas Rosario, Fremio stopped Criscencio Fernandez in 8 rounds and Natalio took 4 rounds to stop Lachy Linares.

Here's the other 2 remaining questions:

Who fought in the 1st bout that the ring announcer announced the scores?

When was the 1st time both the mandatory 8 count rule and 3 knockdowns in 1 round terminating the bout was used in a Championship match? Who were the boxers?
