Alexis Argüello
Next up is the three-weight world champion Alexis Argüello who competed from 1968 to 1995. Argüello has been called one of the greatest boxers of his era as he’s never lost any of his world titles in the ring. Rather he relinquished every time he pursued a title in a higher weight class. Oh, The Ring magazine ranks him at 20 on their “100 greatest punchers of all time”.

Gene Tunney
The Fighting Marine held the world heavyweight title from 1926 to 1928. Tunney’s most successful title defense against the great Jack Dempsey remains to be one of the most famous bouts in the sport’s history – it’s known as The Long Count Fight.
