    Shannon Briggs has 31(!) 1st round ko's now. Say what you will about his comp in those 31 fights, but that is still damn impressive. Anyone know if that is a record, or if not what the record is?

    I think Jack Dempsey had more.

    I think it was Briggs, Dempsey had a lot of fights that haven't been documented so it's hard to know for sure.

    Fairly certain as well that Briggs holds the distinction.

    Impressive. However, their combined record is poor I done this and Briggs feasted on Brunson level competition... Remains impressive in the quantity department nevertheless :hellohi
