A recent question from a BoxRec forum poster put me on the hunt to find out which boxer had the largest amount of consecutive losses before winning a bout.
Believe it or not, a boxer named Frankie Hines lost 51 consecutive bouts before winning again. The streak spanned over 7 years (Dec 1993 – Mar 2001). He won twice more after this, and retired with a record of 17-120-5. Boxers, Frank Wuestenberghs, and Arv Mittoo, receive the silver and bronze, with streaks of 49, and 46, respectively.
