By Ken Hissner: The undefeated boxers active and retired get their share of ink. The defeated not so much, to say the least. This writer keeps a 100 Loss list of Non-Winning boxers and boxers with over 100 losses both active and inactive.

Heading the list of the “defeated” and retired is Bheki Moyo from Zimbabwe living in East Earl’s Court in London, UK, who last fought in March of 2015 finishing with a record of 0-73-2 stopped 6 times.

Moyo lost to thirty-three opponents without a loss and twenty-five opponents making their debut from the time of his debut in July of 2005. In 2006 and 2011 he received a pair of draw decisions.

With all of these fighters you have to wonder why their boxing commissions do not retire them.
