BIRMINGHAM, England — Unlike bowling, this 300 is far from perfect.
On Friday, boxing’s biggest loser, Peter Buckley, right, will try to earn career win No. 32 in his 300th and final bout.
The 39-year-old super featherweight has the worst record of any current fighter — 31-256-12 — and he hasn’t won in five years.
“I’m always in the gym, so if I get a call a couple of hours before a fight, I usually say yes,” Buckley told The Associated Press. “If you phone up a bricklayer and ask him to build you a wall, he doesn’t ask for three weeks to prepare. He comes round and does it straight away. Why should a boxer be any different?”
The Englishman, who sometimes goes into the ring with a black eye from his previous fight, has lost to a few eventual world champions: Prince Naseem Hamed, Duke McKenzie, Scott Harrison and Colin McMillan.
