49-0 is Nothing Special

[TheEvilSaint]

In professional boxing 49-0 is outstanding.

no its not.

[BuddyChacon]

DM and Larry Holmes both got to 48-0, but lost their next fight.

Also Ricardo Lopez retired 51-0-1 I believe, he drew once but never lost a fight either.

I forgot about Dariuz. Their must be something about that number 49.

[TheEvilSaint]

Neilsen lost his 49th fight to ****y Ryan I believe. Holmes also lost his 49th to Spinks. No Heavyweight has every duplicated that feat before. Valuev could get to 55-0 and it wouldn't matter he'll never be the Rock. He won't he will lose before his 49th also.

i checked, he lost his 50th fight to ****y ryan.

more like fat ass

[badblood]

no its not.

Like I said, you go out and do it then. It should be no problem for you since it's not that hard.

[Abe Attell]

But how many Title defenses did he make?

Look at someone like Tszyu, the guy went after the title in like his 14th fight, that would be a ***** to try to defend that title till you got to 50-0


Ali has the best record because of who he fought...he was also undefeated before his exile, and missed out on what was probably the years of his true "Prime"

you expect too much.

I think you are right. I was just going on memory I didn't look it up or anything.

[badblood]

I do know this much, any pro boxer that can go 49-0 is a very good fighter. 49-0 doesn't come along that often and when it does it should be respected.

then i suppose we should all consider brian neilsen one of the top HWs of all time simply because he reached 49-0.
