So we all know and agree that Rocky Marciano's KO of Ali in 1969 makes him 50-0 by today's standards. Although there are allegedly some lower weight fighters who have recently come close to the number, it will only count if a Heavyweight beats it.
William Fernando Souza Bezerra is a fat cruiserweight. It's inevitable that he will eventually fight at Heavyweight. He has little skill and has clearly fought a lot of set ups and spectators. However, should he move to Heavyweight and reach 51-0 wouldn't this have to count?
Keep in mind also that by today's standards, Marciano wouldn't even be a full Cruiserweight even though he was KOing Super Heavyweights. Marciano usually or maybe always weighed in the 180's. Considering the weigh in tricks fighters do today, This would be the equivalent of GGG KOing Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder then retiring undefeated and coming back several years later to KO another undefeated all time Heavyweight great before retiring for good.
