Here's one I'll add to the list and let one of you Brits rate. Johnny Douglas, who beat Reg Baker for the 1908 Olympic Middleweight gold medal. He got tagged with the Nickname "JWHT" (Johnny Won't Hit Today) while captain of the British Cricket Team. He was also a footballer.
An article about him is at the following address: http://www.boxing-monthly.co.uk/content/0402/two.htm

BIKO BOTOWAMUNGU HW (1992-2004) Overall Rating = high 1
Born - Kisangari, Congo Hometown - Sheffield, England, UK 10(10)-16-1 Came out of retirement in 2004 to fight for something called the Austrian International Heavyweight Title against a fellow with four fights under his belt. Biko lost. He also has dropped bouts to Przemyslaw Saleta, Obed Sullivan, Lamon Brewster, Timo Hoffmann, Wladimir Klitschko, Corey Sanders and Chris Byrd. He did manage to stop Frankie Hines, but hasn't everyone? (I wonder who paid to see that fight)

Here are my ratings for Bobby Rose. Record: W:9 (4ko), L:2 (0ko by), D: 1.
Won the Northern Victorian LW title. Also a champion aussie rules footballer at the elite level with Collingwood FC. Can someone please post the photo of him, as I've lost it somehow, thanks. check out this site for a great tribute to this man: http://www.geocities.com/buckleysurf...3/bobrose.html Cheers, Shane.

Thanks Shane, I'll post the photo later in the weekend when I am back at my home PC. I do not have it here.
Tommy Campbell LW (1941-1951) Overall Rating = 8 Hometown - Rock Island, Illinois, USA 33(16)-14-5 Campbell faced many great lightweights and welterweights of the forties. He holds wins over Joe Brown, Glen Flanagan, Harold Jones, Del Flanagan, Charley Salas and Gene Burton. He drew with Lester Felton, Jimmy Carter and Del Flanagan. Was beaten by Brown, Felton, Freddie Dawson, Art Aragon, Enrique Bolanos and early in his career, Burton and Flashy Sebastian. In 1956, Campbell testified before congress that he had been told to throw the Del Flanagan fight (which he won) and did throw the fight with Art Aragon; both under the orders of gangster Baby McCoy. He was stopped four times in 52 pro bouts, two comming early in his career and one in the fight with Aragon that he claims to have thrown.
