Sugar Shane even said it in an interview im trying to find it on youtube as we speak. Diego had to lose 18 lbs of water weight. Like Shane said you never see floyd knock anyone out like that before then all of a sudden he does this to a big guy? He also went on to say anyone at that weight class would have done that or something to that effect that they would have done the same thing that mayweather did
So one of floyds best wins was really amplified becoz of the scales .... just like pacquiao right? :smashfrea
A loss is a loss and a win is a win. Winning isn't 100% about the skill of the fighter it's about the skills of the fighter and his team.
The fight begins at the signing of the contract (or maybe even before) A boxing coach and manager is supposed to advance as many advantages to their fighter as possible. Mayweather happens to be a better boxer with a better team.
Are you talking about Ali vs the Japanese wrestler?
That's what we boxing fans call "an Exhibition". Fury vs Ngannou was what we call "a fight". Fury's win over Ngannou went into Boxrec as split decision W10.
Too difficult for you to extend across all divisions? It's all boxing after all. And lets be honest Fury was hardly an impressive world champ, with that weak record. Getting beaten by a novice I guess exposed that.
Jesus Christ you are worthless. Dig your parents up out of the ground and punch them both in the mouth for the $hitty job they did raising you.
Foreman Briggs?
Hard to research, but this is the best I can get; Foreman may have been an ex champ by then. Wiki has his second reign as 1994 to 1995. Foreman's fight against Briggs was 1997 and was an eliminator to challenge Lennox Lewis for his world title. (Can't look up which title right now because boxrec is a piece of sht)
YES, but you have to go all the way back to Jack Johnson. The are others.
Fury vs Ngannou was a non title heavyweight match involving a reigning World Heavyweight champion.
This is a very rare occurrence, but it has happened before. When was the last time this happened?
Everyone already know that mayweather duck so many fighters and the reason why almost every boxing experts and boxing legends keep calling him a cherry picker.
Yet after two chances, you can't name one.
Ask haney, tyson, robert garcia, holfield, hopkins and they will answer you as they are the one who keep saying about mayweather cherry picking habit.
So you don't know either, fair enough. Look, I'm no Mayweather fan, when I thought of someone he didn't fight the only name I could
come up with was Antonio (Plaster of Paris) Margarito.
No one was hollering for a Margarito-Mayweather fight anyway, so hardly worth mentioning.
Seems none the four kings would even mentioned Julian Jackson or Mike McCallum. Nice of Hagler to give Mugabi a shot tho.
SYNOPSIS: You won the WBC title against a long time reigning titlist and are meeting your manager for your next opponent....who are you picking?
Your record is 33-7, with 19KOs.
Would you pick options A or B or C?
A: Voluntary defense against an overmatched opponent in your hometown for $400K. You will be ridiculed and called a duck and a lucky bum who won the title on bad judging by BoxingScene posters. If yo choose this option, you will then miss the opportunity to unify and will called to face a mandatory in his backyard for 200K and get TKO'd in the later rounds.
B: Face the WBA/Lineal Champion in his home country of Thailand in a matchup where you are 98% guaranteed to lose via UD for 5million dollars
C: Retire from boxing after achieving your longtime dream, with 50K in the bank
A and B
unbeaten
/ʌnˈbiːt(ə)n/
adjective
not defeated or surpassed.
"they were the only side to remain unbeaten"
It's not accurate. He's never been unbeaten in his pro career.
The Longest Win Streak :) :yes:
If you learned proper English, you would see you never got off the ground here. Stay mad! :purity::ok:
Don't forget to give your (red herring) slant to these authors:
https://www.thefightcity.com/a-fistful-of-murder-carlos-monzon-boxing/
(after going 16-3 record)
"And there are few better subjects than Monzon, a dark artist who pulverized a slew of rivals during a thirteen-year unbeaten streak that stretched from
1964 to the end of his career in 1977."
https://www.boxingnews24.com/2022/01/the-longest-unbeaten-streaks-in-boxing-may-surprise-you/
"Hal Bagwell, of Manchester, UK, was 30-0-3 when he lost for the first time. He went on to be unbeaten in sixty-seven fights, including five draws. It has been crediting him with 183 and 180 straight wins. His final record per box rec is 100-5-8."
"Spain’s Pedro Carrasco was 11-0-1 when he lost for the first time. He went on to be unbeaten in ninety-three fights from 1964 through 1971."
Instead of busting my balls you should thank me for educating you. Quit trolling with your petty semantics game.
Nice gif, big fan. Don't start name calling though lil' fella.
Then you should have said WIN STREAK. He lost his first fight and was NEVER UNBEATEN. :dunno:
Additionally, he was fighting 0-4 type fighters. Hardly remarkable.
Unbeaten streak means unbeaten streak. English, you speak it? unbeaten streak is accurate statement, none were losses (hence unbeaten streak). Never did I say he was unbeaten nor was the level of the opposition relevant to the statement posed in the O.P. Quit resorting to red herrings to deflect from the OP statement.
The only one that comes remotely close is Jimmy Wilde and he fought debutant fighters, .500 fighters, winless fighters and farm boys. Like every red herring you bring up, it is irrelevant.
Needless to way, you haven't changed my mind.
How does one change the mind of a retarded pitbull?
Don't start name calling though lil' fella. I see the stress is too much for you so
I have a question that won't be so hard to answer..
How come when I buy avocados green, some get ripe and of course I have to eat them ASAP. Other avocados stay green long after others have been eaten, these stay green until rotten spots start showing. They totally bypass the "ripe" phase and go right to "rotten" phase even though they are still green. WTF is going on here?

6 of those fights in Buck Smith's 108 streak record were NC's, so much for your "wins". "Unbeaten streak" more accurate. Apparently your 12 year old mind has difficulty discerning between "Unbeaten streak" and "Unbeaten". change my mind.
Buck Smith was the ultimate bum slayer. He would fight many times in a month. They announced him once in Tuesday night fights with that record and everyone was wondering how did he go undetected for so long. Dude was trash.
Was there ever a point I said otherwise?
Troll thread, but seriously, we need more Buck Smiths in the world.
We need guys willing to fight bums twice a month & step in on a moment's notice.
I think this should turn into a Buck Smith Appreciation Thread :boxing::boxing::boxing:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yzn9N-KHfWA
This is a Buck Smith appreciation thread, it's others who are trolling, trying to deny his historic streak.
He lost his 1st and 22nd fight lol.
...And then he went undefeated in his next 108 fights, LOL LOL LOL LOL. Do your research you silly retard! LOL
Good luck finding a fighter with a longer unbeaten streak than Buck Smith.

LOS ANGELES - Ryan Garcia is confident, despite the obvious obstacles, that he'll finally fight Gervonta Davis next. The undefeated Garcia believes their handlers will work through the various issues that could prevent competing promoters and platforms from coming together to make one of the highest-profile fights in boxing for later this year. If, however, those complications cause them to go in different directions again, Garcia would want to face another popular boxer who has left the 135-pound division.

Garcia vs Lopez would be the battle between the two biggest Divas ever. I pick Garcia over Lopez, Garcia has a good chance against Tank also.
Undisputed lightweight champion Devin Haney is all-in on next facing Vasiliy Lomachenko, but he's already sending preemptive strikes toward another opponent in a new division.

Devin Haney won't f... up Teofimo Lopez, he will however totally outbox Teofimo Lopez. 100%
KO's 16 straight in the first round. Hasn't KO'd anyone in last 2 years. Yeah, not the dynamo he was marketed to be, useful to help pad Canelo's record tho.
Weight classes are usually set in place for a fighter's safety and to prevent gross mismatches. Naoya Inoue, however, doesn't seem to abide by those rules.

Well the article misquoted Davis record, got it confused with Inoue record so not impressed with commentary after that.
This card reminds me of the "A Night with the Heavyweights" back in the 70's. I think it was Lyle, Norton, Young and Holmes vs worthy opponents. At the time all these guys mentioned were top ten rated heavies. It was on NBC and free to watch.
