Whos going to be first to beat Rocky Marcianos amazing 49-0??

So cmon, lets hear your opinions?
Some are closer than others....some greats have already spoilt there chances....some will not even get close. One day it must happen, so lets hear your view on who it might be?

The one who fights the most bums.

Nobody fighting currently I don't think. To my knowledge only Valuev is close but I really can't see him going another 3 or 4 fights without being beat.

As soon as he tries and unifies it's pretty much all over for him.

Calzaghe could beat the 49-0 but obviously not in the same weight class, Mayweather possibly.

Overall though I'd say Kessler may have the best chance. I think he's 37-0 or therabouts and as long as avoids Calzaghe I can see him beating everyone at 168.

Him and Calzaghe is a 50/50 fight imo.

Good point. Valuev wont make it i believe. And Calzaghes not looking to stay around that long.

i would say at the mo mayweather jnr

I almost guarantee that Valuev will be fed a diet of stiffs until he beats the record.

Incidentally, I don't think we can count people like Mayweather, as Marciano's record was for heavyweights. Lets see Floyd beat Sugar Ray Robinson's record of going seventy fights undefeated, losing to an all time great in Lamotta, and then going another 70 fights undefeated.

Valuev.....if he keeps fighting bums and stays clear of the Klit he has a very good chance of beating that record. he is improving a lot and i really think he has the best chance at doing it

I was thinking the same thing...Nicolay Valuev

He never has fought anyone dangerous and he never will

Actually Robinson only went about 40 fights undefeated before his loss to Lamota. Not sure how many fights Floyd has had but he may already have gone longer, I know Calzaghe and Valuev have ;)

wasnt chavez like 89-0 or something like that didnt he have longest underfeated record ?? even though i think he should of had a loss before

Me bad - I just checked and you're right - he went 40 fights undefeated up to the first loss against La Motta.

But he then went 91 more undefeated until the Turpin loss.

Robinson had an amateur career of 80 and 0 or something like that? If thats true then accumulative he went 120 fights before losing once :o

If Tyson had half of a brain he would have beat the record, a scientific study said that humans only use 3 percent of their brain, Mike maybe uses 1/4 of that.

Valuev, I'd be surprised if he didn't make it, just for the same reasons that X mentioned, I doubt he'll fight a dangerous guy before that.

DEAR GOD! i hope Valuev doesnt get to 50-0 then retire! That will be SO embarrasing for the heavyweight division!
