Len Wickwar had the most fights in boxing history, with a record of 340-87-43 with 94 KOs. But how good was he? Was he ever ranked highly or was a legitimate contender?
Very Good, and a Credit to TRUE Boxing, in that he was a Contender, a Fringe Contender, a Journeyman and at the Top or Among them for Years... 'IF' only we could get champions & contenders today with such 'a Willing' approach to fighting, Boxing would still be "in the Main". a Lost Fighter, Age and level of 'overall' greatness we will NEVER know again.
Following this... I'll admit I know nothing of this guy outside he is the answer to a trivia question. This is what I love about the history of this sport. There are always fighters worth learning more about.
Two wins over Ginger Sadd seems to have been the highlight of his career.He looks a capable pro on the bit of Footage against wild swinging Eric Boon .
On paper, Len Wickwar 1928 - 1947 boxing record. 473 fights 4,020 rds in a 19 year career. 342 wins is pretty impressive!
