    hans strecht german middleweight

    Hans Strecht (German middleweight of the 40's/50s)might qualify - after being disqualified in one of his fights he knocked out the ref and chased everybody out of the ring -then took a bow!

        Tony Galento, not sure about eccentric certainly a hell of a character. Depends on how you define eccentric I guess.

            Was he? I dont know, I thought he was.

            Anyway, as for him being eccentric, I guess he wasn't.

              He was certainly a character and a bit odd as well. Any man who has a boxing match with a bear (a real one, not Baer) must be.

                Eubank has to take the biscuit here.. I mean, what kind of a bloke drives a 40 foot truck while clad in a 3 piece tweed suit, big brown jodphurs, while sporting a monocle & cain combo..

                I suppose you could say George Foreman was an eccentric to.. I believe he's named 5 of his sons George.. I've always found that a bit odd..

                Ricardo Myorga, Jorge Piaz & Ali all liked to do things differently to..

                From the old school, I'd say John L Sullivan & Jack Johnson were a bit off the wall..

                      I heard that DeMarcus Corley wears Victoria's Secret underwear... Larry Merchant mentioned that right before the first bell of his fight with Zab Judah.. I think that would qualify, unless he's gay.
