Career
[edit]Bird has 356 recorded fights, but has been rumored to have even more fights during his career which were not professional matches. Bird currently holds the knockout world record at 138; the second closest is Archie Moore with 132 knockouts. Ian Palmer of Goliath listed Bird's achievement as "10 Boxing Records That Will (Probably) Never Be Broken".[2] Robert Aaron Contreras of Bleacher Report believes this record will "never be repeated" as the current active boxer has a knockout record of 51.[3]
On 30 September 1929 Bird won a fight against Leo Wax by decision after a 15-round bout.[4]
Bird worked as a taxi driver when he was not boxing.[5]
Bird died on 6 February 1951.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
