    I think Georges Carpentier of France ,who was light heavyweight champion and fought Dempsey for the Heavy title turned pro at 13 or 14 as a flyweight. He took a few years off to fight in WWI and fought in every weight class right up to heavyweight.

    Leon sucked. Skeltons a good example of an old pro. Audley was 28 - 30 I think.
