    Which Lineal HW Champ lost the most fights?

    Which Lineal HW Champ won the most fights?

    Which Lineal HW Champ scored the most KO's

    I was just looking these up and was somewhat surprised at the results

    * The figures I ahve are from BoxRec so hopefully my answers will still be correct

    No cheating now!!

    Without looking it up, my guesses are:


    Carnera the most knockouts
    Leon Spinks the most losses
    ...mmm...Carnera the most wins? Controversy aside?

    Charles retired with the most defeats and victories, while Braddock had the most defeats of any reigning champion. Carnera had the most knockouts.

    Charles was also the only HW Champ who went undefeated as an amateur (42-0).
