    Recently retired, at least I hope he has, Englishman Peter Buckley 'boasts' a 32 wins, 256 losses and 12 draws record.

    Not the record of a world beater, to say the least, but the guy was only KOed 10 times in 300 fights (256 of which were losses)....that's some chin!!

    Mavrovich and Mercer against Lewis ... both took bombs from a huge puncher and stood up ... many, many bombs ...

    And a few of those are cuts losses.

    He went the distance with Hamed, the Hamed stoppage was an absolute ****ing joke, and one of the other stoppages was a bodyshot.

    So yes, the guys gone a few thousand rounds. His beard is pretty incredible.

    I still like Pryor taking that a#1 right hand Alexis had set up for about 12 rounds. Picture perfect and right on the button and late in a fight to boot. Incredible.
