Best Record of All Time

If Larry Holmes had beaten Rocky's record would you say his was the greatest of all time. I wouldn't it. I don't know why but I hate that guy.

marciano is the best...

Take a guess.

I love Marciano, his style was intimidating and his power was lethal. Not many people give him credit for being a very intelligent fighter, which he was. He mastered the art of decking people systematically. As far as impressive records go, I have to go with Julio Caesar Chavez. He brought an old-school mentality to modern boxing and put away many terrific fighters. Sugar Ray Robinson runs a close second with Marciano and Ali following.

Jimmy Wilde - flyweight champ from the early 20th century 134 wins 4 losses 10 draws amazing fighter!

Greb, Robinson or perhaps Willie Pep.

Maciano, he had no flaws.

Marciano retired undefeated.

Theres a guy named Lopez that cant be left out...! Ricardo "finito" Lopez. Unbeaten! :eek: WHAT WAS HE LIKE 56-0-1 48 KO'S AND RETIRED CHAMP.A MASTERPIECE OF NACHO BERISTIEN. :D

You have to look at the quality of the opponents. Marciano didn`t really fight that great of opponents. Some were old and past it ( Joe Louis ). Roy Jones has a great record. I know he lost his last two but if you look at the career on whole he dominated every lightheavy spare Tarver + Johnson, he beat very good fighters in Toney and Hopkins, and beat them convincingly. Evander Holyfield also deserves a mention, the quality of opponents was unreal and he fought most of the guys when they were in their prime ( Lewis was in his prime but Tyson....little past it but still had something to offer ). I know recent performances will damage Evander`s legacy but look at his prime, he was fantastic.

"El Gran Campeon Mexicano"Julio Cesar Chavez!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yup, Ricardo Lopez can't be left out. Whoa, how 'bout Willie Pep? 230-11-1. Shit, that's a ridiculous win/loss ratio!

Not many fighters can match Harry Greb's record and opposition. He fought in a total of 299 bouts and amassed a record of 26(48kos)-21-15. His record pretty much consists of 80% of all the hall of fame fighters, from 135-heavy, that fought during the 1910s and 1920s.

Theres a guy named Lopez that cant be left out...! Ricardo "finito" Lopez. Unbeaten! :eek:

Just for you young ones here. For what it's worth: Julio Ceasar Chavez incredible win streak ( before whitaker tied him and randall beat him) is kind of sku'd. He actually had a disqualification loss, but Don King had it removed from his record. Curious to know if any of you knew that. I'm sure Julio was better, but none the less, just goes to show there is always politics involved, even in boxing...imagine that. Yea against Miguel Ruiz, but it was Ramon Felix that had it changed to a ko win, it helps to have your manager be on the commission!:rolleyes:

Chavez KO'd a guy after the round had finish. Same kind of thing that happen to Roy in the his first "loss". Chavez first real loss was to Pea, just like Roy's was to Tarver.

Robinson. I mean, Marcaino was great for going undefeated and all, but Robinson just fought way more fights and racked up a huge record. I'd have to give him more propes.

Rocky Marcianno is my pick

Sugar Ray Robinson, I'd say

Dude you really can't be seriouslly bagging on the fighters from the throwback years like that! You cannot compare the fighters from nowadays to them, like Floyd, yes he's a really good fighter with all the potential in the world but he fights far to infrequently and his competition level needs to get back to where it was when he fought at 130. As far as Rocky Marciano fighting mostly club fighters I have a hard time calling (Archie Moore, Ezzard Charles x2, Jersey Joe Walcottx2, Rex Layne, Roland Lastarza, and albeit an old Joe Louis but still Joe Louis) club fighters! and that's not even counting Don Cockell, or Harry Matthews! So I'd say that Floyd maybe really good could be really great but shouldn't be put anywhere near this class of fighters such as: Ali, A. Moore, Suger Ray Robinson, Rocky Marciano, Julio Ceasar Chavez, Joe Louis, even Larry Holmes, and George Foreman if going by records!
