Yeah I had a go at it for a while but hhascup always put me to shame coz he had the monthlys as well. good to see my work appreciated though, probably a few errors in there coz it's quite tedious work.
Thanks! If you feel up to it would it be possible to check out: Lupe Pintor Gaby & Orlando Happy Lora just for a Chandler comparrison for me??? Also how about Prince Naseem
Awesome work Luf :good Joe Louis at 50-3 is absaloutley outstanding considering he only had the 68 fights. Also when you compare Jack Johnson's record to fellow black fighters of the time like Langford, Jeannette and McVea, he must be applauded. His record is pretty damn consistent for his time Anyone willing to do this for Kid Gavillan would be appreciated
Ineteresting stuff my dudes. You'll be regretting not doing it alphabetically in about six pages time though.
The Cubans Jose Napoles 23-4 Kid Gavilan 21-19-1 Luis Manuel Rodriguez 17-8 I regret not doing this.alphabetically. Good work guys.
Some modern little men (the numbers being their record against 'The Ring' top 10 and champions, as well as fellow Hall of Famers). Carbajal 6-3 Gonzales (Humberto) 2-1 Galaxy 3-0 Harada 7-5
