    I knew Allie very well, but he was 9-8 at the Garden. My guy had several more wins than that.

    one more guess

    Tippy Larkin

    although I think Tippy was a junior champion, so perhaps he doesn't count anyway.

    Tippy was another good friend of mine. I use to take him around to all the boxing functions in the last 10 years of his life, and when he passed on, I was asked to give the eulogy, But he was 13-5-1 at the Garden. My guy won several more.

    Beau Jack had a record of 19-6-2 but he was a Lightweight Champion. The question is Non-Champion.

    YES! Joey Carkido went 17-3-2 at the Garden, which was 3 more wins than either Frankie Narvaez or Joey Archer had. Carkido is 1 of only 2 Non-Champions to box at the Graden 20 or more times, can you name of other boxer?

    I believe Gaspar Ortega just makes the cut with 20.

    I never thought of Gaspar Ortega at all despite having seen him on TV many times.

    Thanks for the thread, Henry.
