Floyd arguably has a better resume than Marciano, but the win that will cause him to beat Marciano's record completely taints the accomplishment.

His crowning achievement for the record is Mcgregor "peeleft:


Just imagine the difference if win #50 was against Spence instead

It's just a number. It's not like NBA where having the most points all time. I could get to 50-0 if I fought 50 kuyukuts

Chavez 87-0

What record? The mob fixed half those fights

I don't even know why retiring undefeated carries so much weight when you consider several other fighters throughout history have gone undefeated for 70, 80 fights or more (JCC) until they suffered a loss. Duran only had one loss in his first 73 fights. Harry Greb went 45-0 in one year, and did it fighting three different weight classes that included about a half dozen hall of famers. Now that is an achievement, one that will never be repeated.

And Floyd never fought an elite in their prime. Not to mention the gifts he got to remain undefeated. Castillo I was the most obvious of them all.

Corrales, hatton, Marquez all prime p4p fighters and floyd started ducking after cotto.

And really Castillo? You didn't see that boy get embarrassed in the rematch?

Aint nothing "arguably" about it. Floyd's resume ****s on Marciano's. Rocky was a can crusher, he fought McGoober level opponents all the time.

Marciano has no "record." He retired undefeated.

So did Sven Ottke. It's totally meaningless.
