    Better question would be: Who has 2 draws in succession? One answer is Tua draw-guy, Monte Barrett.

    David Tua - Draw
    Charles Davis - Draw

    Loads and loads of boxers have fought 2 (or more) consecutive draws.

    Young Papke, for example, had 10 separate streaks of 2 draws in a row... plus 3 streaks of 3, 1 streak of 4, and 1 streak of 5 consecutive draws.

    Austin Rice had 2 separate streaks of 4, and 2 streaks of 5 in a row.

    Jimmy Barry finished his career with 8 draws in a row!

    Thanks. That last stat is insane. Were there some unusual draw bets going on with Jimmy Barry? :lol:

    Monzon had a lot of draws in his early days. I always wondered if it was due to the way fights were scored in Argentina bsck then or if it was dodgy.

    As it says on BoxRec, in a couple of those fights it was agreed, that the decision should be a draw, if they went the full distance. Also the last fight may have been a "gift" draw, to enable Barry to retire undefeated.

    Back then, there was this rule in Argentina, where a fight would be declared a draw, if none of the boxers won by at least 2 (or was it 3; I'm not quite sure) clear rounds.
