He's got an answer for everything, week 30

What's the most successful racehorse ever?
The most successful racehorse ever was a Hungarian horse called Kincsem. Her career in racing began in 1876 and in the space of 4 years she managed to win every race she entered, finishing with a record of 54 straight victories in 54 races. She won many majors around Europe and won the Goodwood Cup in the UK, in 1878. Not even Red Rum, Arkle or Desert Orchid has that kind of record.
In terms of earnings, it would be difficult to top the Japanese champion horse Deep Impact, which earned over £10 million for his owners. The least successful horse ever has not had its name recorded, but is rumoured to have been called Pedigree Chum.


Who's the best boxer ever?
The best boxer ever is Sugar Ray Robinson. There is a general consensus that this pugilist, real name Walker Smith Jr, was even better than those often cited as the best boxer ever by other sources, such as Muhammad Ali, Rocky Marciano, Manny Pacquiao and Joe Louis. Even the Louisville Lip himself claimed Robinson was the greatest.
Robinson’s professional boxing career stretched from 1940 until 1965, when he retired for the final time at the age of 44. He had been in 200 fights, winning 173 (108 KO), with 19 losses, 6 draws and 2 no contests. In that time he won the World Middleweight Championship 5 times and also won the World Welterweight Championship. In 1997, Ring Magazine chose him as the greatest pound for pound fighter ever.
Worst boxer ever? Ivan Drago for killing Apollo Creed and for allowing Rocky Balboa to single-handedly bring down Communism by giving him a shiner.


What is the dumbest animal in the world?
Man of course! However, it is too conceited to say the human being is the dumbest animal in the world considering all the stupid things that people do. You could also pick an animal like a worm, which doesn’t actually have a brain, they have nerve centres, but it seems a bit harsh to call a worm dumb. Fish aren’t generally known for their intelligence and birds have very small brains. Basing the answer on a creature with some basic level of intelligence would lead to choosing the Afghan Hound, which truly is the bimbo of dogs.
However, even an Afghan Hound looks like a member of Mensa compared to the dumbest animal ever, the stegosaurus. This animal could weigh around 4,500kg yet its puny brain weighed around 80g. It would be like a human having a brain slightly larger than a pea, a condition known as Rooneyism.


When are men at their premium? On the decline what stuff starts to go first?
Men are at their peak at 18 years old, especially with regard to their sex drive. There is no biological set-list of what goes first, but generally losing hair, gaining weight and decrease in libido are the most common things that occur; it depends on genetics and environment.
Women have their sexual peak at around 40 years of age, so it would make sense to see more women of that age with young men rather than the other way round. But then that would see a lot of Porsche salesmen, Viagra vendors and hairpiece-weavers out of a job.
