Boxing is a sport that allows someone to knock someone else out and win titles in whichever class they are in. Over time there have been millions of fighters in pro boxing and still more to come to the sport that could still beat this record and could demolish this record if they get the chance to in the future, however nowadays fighters only have 50 fights before they call it a career! Most boxers now only have a couple of fights win a championship and end it, however back in the day it was different.
Billy Bird is currently the man who has the most KO wins in boxing history! Billy Bird was born on the 1st January 1899 in Chelsea, London, United Kingdom. He started his boxing career in 1920, this was the start of a great 28 years of boxing. He went up against Ivor Pickens and beat him in the 9th round of boxing via TKO, he then went on to fight Seaman Joe Wakeling a week later, however lost via Points decision in 10 rounds. Throughout his career, he never had the same consistence as great boxers should, however he managed to fight over 356 fights and over 3000 rounds of boxing to get this incredible record. He managed to get 256 wins with… 138 of these wins via KO.
No other boxer have reach this incredible milestone! Boxing now will most likely never see a record like this ever again! Floyd will be known as one of the best boxers in the world with a great 50-0 record, however he Billy Bird will be remembered as the knockout king, knocking out 138 fighters in 28 years of fighting! Will anyone beat this record?
