    I added a feature for an excuse to bump. Now * signifies the active fighter with the most active KOs. Of course the list will be updated as more fighters reach the list. (Looking at you Inoue)

    Secondary titles don't count. Only real titles.

    I added a legend and a notifier if they KOd the most people in a division's history. I will add each fighter's primary division (by title fight KOs) later today.

    There goes Dariusz.
    ;)

    I remember attending the Antontio Tarver-Reggie Johnson fight. It was listed as an IBF eliminator but one guy was also the #2 WBO contender. The other, I believe, was the WBO #4 contender, so it was essentially a WBO eliminator as well. Excellent fight. Johnson floored Tarver. Tarver eaked out a decision.

    On the undercard, local pug Joey DeGrandis fought a nobody in a 4-rounder and won a sloppy decision. Three months later, Dariusz defends against DeGrandis and he never fought Tarver or Johnson. That was kind of typical for him much of the time.

    One thing I seem to have to disqualify Dariusz for is that the WBO title wasn't a major title until 1999 (at the earliest, some people push it to 2002, 2004 or 2007).

    *Edit: I decided to disqualify him, for the sake of proper historical view.
