    Excellent job!

    You'd think, that there can't possibly be a shorter way than this - but there actually is! You have probably spent quite some time on this question already, so I hate to think, you might spend several more hours trying to shorten the chain even further. So maybe I should just post the answer? Or do you want more time? Let me know.

    I'm too stubborn to let you just give it me, I want another go! To save myself from madness, I'll ask for one more go if you will. :thumbsup:

    Ugh I can't beat 6! I found Carnera > Stribling > Gomez > Carlin > Villa > Wilde.

    Another very good effort!

    The trick to solving this is to realize, that Wilde and Carpentier had a common opponent - George Gloria! So we have:

    Wilde - Gloria - Carpentier - Loughran - Carnera… I'm pretty sure, there's not a shorter way!
