Antonio Tarver Vs Lateef Kayode: THE BOXING ADVANTAGE

May 29th, 2012 Geno

In addition to the amount of wins, losses or knockouts a fighter possesses, another number exists that is often discussed in the buildup to a prizefight: age.

However, history reveals that neither 43-year-old former Undisputed Light Heavyweight World Champion Antonio “Magic Man’’ Tarver nor unbeaten 29-year-old top rated cruiserweight Lateef “Power” Kayode will have a clear advantage or be at a distinct disadvantage when they clash in the main event on Saturday, June 2 on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING live on SHOWTIME® (9 p.m. ET/PT, delayed on the West Coast) from The Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif.

The same goes for the evening’s co-featured bout between 40-year-old former Undisputed Junior Middleweight World Champion Winky Wright and undefeated 28-year-old Brooklyn native Peter “Kid Chocolate” Quillin.

Boxing’s history includes many instances of fighters in their 40’s taking on 20-somethings, and SHOWTIME color commentator and boxing historian Steve Farhood assembled a list of marquee fights in which the result favored the more experienced fighters and the reverse, a list of bouts in which youth ruled the day.

20’s over 40’s:

WINNER AGE RESULT LOSER AGE
Muhammad Ali 20 KO 4 Archie Moore 48
*Chad Dawson 29 W 12 Bernard Hopkins 47
*Canelo Alvarez 21 W 12 Sugar Shane Mosley 40
Joey Archer 27 W 10 Sugar Ray Robinson 44

40’s over 20’s:

WINNER AGE RESULT LOSER AGE
*George Foreman 45 KO 10 Michael Moorer 26
*Archie Moore 41 KO 11 Yvon Durelle 29
Bernard Hopkins 43 W 12 Kelly Pavlik 26
*Bernard Hopkins 46 W 12 Jean Pascal 28
*Bob Fitzsimmons 40 W 20 George Gardner 26

*Denotes World Title Fight
