Johnny Griffiths

Griffiths met an astonishingly high number of top-flight boxers: Jack Britton (eight times!), Ted (Kid) Lewis (five), Mickey Walker (three), Jan Mandot (three), Bryan Downey (three), Frankie Schoell (twice), Charley White (twice), Matt Wells (twice), Freddie Welsh (twice), Willie Ritchie, Jimmy Slattery, Morrie Schlaifer, Jimmy Jones, Mexican Joe Rivers, Leach Cross, Milburn Saylor, Herb McCoy, Johnny Dundee, Phil Brock, Philadelphia Pal Moore, Eddie O'Keefe, Louis de Ponthieu, and Jack (Kid) Wolfe among others.

By my calculation 59 of his 122 fights were against world-class fighters, while 63 were against trial horses and tomato cans. I used these proportions in play-testing the attached fighter in over 4,000 bouts. The results are pretty accurate, I think.
