    I came across 5 bouts yesterday querying the nytimes. 4 involve a world champion. who would I contact to see if those bouts could be added to the appropriate sources?

    I could add them to Boxrec myself if they aren't already listed. Which champion?

    they're not, it's joe coburn, larry foley and professor william miller. I'll contact cbz since they have their records listed.

    Exhibitions and London Prize Ring bouts are excluded from boxrec.

    I can understand why exhibitions are excluded, but london prize ring results are to a finish and that doesn't make sense, but such is life.

    Is there a site which has records for fights fought under the London prize rules ?

    I come across a few unrecorded bouts from time to time and i am sure that many others come across more. Maybe it would be worthwhile to have a thread on here for people to place links to unrecorded fights, so that those in the know, might be able to update records or find links to unrecorded fights easier?
