    I only got 107 because I've done it a few times. It's a good way to learn the history of the division, like I'll do the quiz then research a fighter I don't know much about.

    That's probably a bit sad...I funking love a good quiz though.

    I like trying to see how many I can get in order. I can get to 1984 before I lose it.

    I'm just about to give it a go, but ****ing hell- good effort guys! I'll be surprised if I get 15 :yep

    Higher than 80 is ridiculously good

    I WAS MISTAKEN

    I thought (on looking at it) you had to type the champion's names into the boxes next to the dates, which would have made it a lot harder! I take back my previous compliments, to a certain extent

    70. Managed to go back to 96, but forgot Akinwande

    First try, 81 :oops:. A few of those misses shame me (Jersey Joe, Charles, Bowe, Johnson, Fitzsimmons). Total cerebral flatulence. The rest are of the more forgettable "oh yeah, I guess technically he was a champion" ilk, mostly in the 90s (Weaver, Morrisson, Bentt, Hide, Seldon, etc.)

    The only real surprises for me were a couple of the WBO holders. Henry Akinwande? Francesco Damiani? Okay...

    Ah, both won vacant belts and had no notable successful defenses. I don't feel too bad about those.

    First try I wen on into the late 70s without missing anybody but then the there just are toomany belts: 93.
    Second try: 102
    third try: 112
    fourth try:112

    I just can't remember the first IBO guy. When I make it again tomorrow I will be at the mid 90s again I suppose, the rest just went into the short time memory :rofl

    The fact that they have Valuev in as Nikolay but don't take Nikolai (the more correct transliteration to my knowledge) is ****ing brutal.

    GD THING! It refused to take Sonny Liston or Joe Frazier and I have no idea why. It's adding EBU champions? Since when does EBU count? AND IBO now...bloody hell.
