    Let me ask a question while we're on the topic; if Valuev goes to 50-0 does he qualify to break Marciano's record even though he has 1 no-contest on his record?

    My answer to this question is, I don't really know because no one is really sure what happened to cause one of his fights to be ruled a no-contest. Does anyone here have any info?

      No, no one has ever beaten the record.
      what was it?

            The only record that matters now is the RING Championship. If you hold that for many years and go undefeated, then you are somebody.

            Holding one of the many fractured titles does not make you the champ. The RING is the only real authoriy left in boxing championship status.

                I dont know what happened either but my answer is no coz even if it wasnt his fault and he is undefeated it aint a PERFECT record. I could be biased tho, i hate Valuev!
