Off the top of my head I think JCC went like 15 yrs. loosing just once before loosing to ODLH. (he lost to Frankie in between)
Maske I think is riding on 18 yrs. having lost just 1 fight.
Joe Louis went 16 yrs. having lost 1 fight.
Bowe went 17 yrs. having lost 1 fight.
But damn! 19 yrs. is a lot of time so he must be old school.
Johnson is one
Glen?Quote:

Did the guy fight steady during this period or was there a long period of retirement. Also you may consider rewording the question to say "losing a MAXIMUM of one fioght" and not a minimum. Minimim means "at least".
Well Ricardo Lopez went his entire 16 year career and never lost but seeing as he fighting guys who weighed less than the average 7 year old American female it's no great feat imo.
Plus he went undefeated which defeats the purpose of the question in saying hes lost once. :)Quote:
