    I was a rugged great fighter,who went through a great career without
    ever being stopped until my last fight when I was a shell of myself.
    Who was I ?

    This ought to be interesting. (I'm disqualifying myself, but expect the answer to come quickly, even if Mr. Hascup also withholds.)

    i missed the 175 fights bit
    the only ever being stopped in his last fight is what had me typing so fast.

    Yes Meast, the great Tony Canzoneri, who had 175 fights against the
    greatest fighters of his time..He was NEVER kod til his last bout on 1939
    by the great left hooking Al Bummy Davis in 3 rds...Canzy was great...

    And with that now settled by Burt and Meast, this well crafted
    tribute video might be an appropriate supplement to the thread:
