    In 1949 you had three HWs born who fought at a high level into their late 40s. Two who actually won some form of belt in their late 40s. "Born in the late 40s to win in their late 40s". A nice slogan.


    Has there even been a trio like the 1949 triad? Or was there just something in the water in 1949?
