Another workhorse lightweight. Khalfi was born in Oran, but fought out of Paris. He lost a French lightweight title bout in 1957 to fellow Algerian Lahouari Godih. (Just curious. Can you imagine two Vietnamese boxers facing each other for an American title at the height of the Vietnam war?) At all events, Khalfi fought from 1948 till '57; he finished with a record of 45-21-6 (15).
