    If he kept the same fighting pace he was at and assuming he won all of them, how many wins? would he have?

    We're not women; you're gonna have to clarify a bit more what was on your mind because i don't really understand your question.

    I quite didn't know how to explain it either. I'am saying that he fought a lot during a four year span of time, during his prime. If he didn't lose or go to jail, how many fights would he have if he kept his pace from 1985-2005?

    He'd have some resume if he did that, he couldnt have kept that up though imo, but i see your question is- 'what if he did?'

    If he fought the best guys at that pace and kept comin' out on-top?? He'd have a shout for number1 at HW imo

    fighting that much, at that pace I think made him better because he was constantly in the ring and so comfortable. He never had ring rust.

    What helped a lot was that the fights often ended in quick KO's. So he didn't take much punishment during his prime.

    If he was undefeated for 20 years which would result in wins over Lewis, Bowe, Holyfield, Klitschkos, Tua, Mercer etc. he would be by far number 1 all time. But that's just not possible to do even if his life didn't spiral out of control.
