    I can't find any. Al Hostak drew with Jack Hibbard twice within the span of fourteen days. As a side note, Hostak once had five draws in a row, including the Hibbard fights, and a whole **** total, something like eleven or twelve draws total!!!

    since hhascup already posted , i won't try , but my 1st guesses were Sim Thompkins' , Sam Langford's and Joe Walcott's series against each other .
    I guess they didn't reach d 6 though .
