    Aldo Spoldi comes close but he had 139 fights. He was stopped by Henry Armstrong twice near the end of his career.

    No H,my guy was seldom defeated and only kod twice, in his last 3 bouts.
    Cute,clever and rugged was he,and was once a champion. Today would be champion of his weightclass...

    Are you should he had 136 fights. I know Lou Ambers was KO'ed by Lew Jenkins twice and that was in his last 3 fights but he had only 106 fights.

    I have a church meeting now so if no one gets it before I come back, I will do some more research.

    Henry I'm sorry when I mistyped Lou Ambers had 136 bouts when he had 106 bouts. Sorry about that. You are of course right H.
    My dad picked up Lou Ambers and his trainer after Lew Jenkins Kod Ambers
    in his final bout in 1941,in my dad's cab. Ambers was only 28 at that time,but was finished as a top fighter...Cheers Henry...

    That's OK!

    He was the 1st one I thought of But I didn't think you wanted him because Ambers only had 106 fights, not 136.

    I have been doing a lot of reserach since I was a kid and Saturday I will turn 63, so that'a long time.

    I also LOVE trivia, not just in boxing, But in all sports.
