Yeah, I'm going by the IBHOF in Canastota.

 

That's remarkable.

I was looking at Sam Langford's record.

In 1916 alone, he faced HOFers McVea, Jeanette, and Wills a combined nine times.

I suppose Cachorro Amaya has the best pure ratio ever. His only listed pro fight was against Alexis Arguello. And he won. I wonder if he brags about it everyday like Al Bundy and his 4 touchdowns. I sure would.

 

Marshall has wins over at least half a dozen Hall of Famers, but isn't in Canastota.

Go figure.

 

Sam Langford, this one took awhile. I hope I didn't miss any. On cyberboxing zone, they list some of his fights with Jeannette as no decisions, but they're listed as draws in boxrec.

57 fights against 12 Hall of Famers for a record of 22-19, with 13 draws and 3 No-Decisions.

I left out Jack Blackburn as he is the HOF, but more because of his training of Louis. He is in there as a "Non-Participant".
