Joe Louis' 25 Consecutive Successful Title Defenses at Heavyweight

Wilfredo Benitez's youngest Champion at 17 years old

Mike Tyson youngest heavyweight champion at 20 years old

Evander Holyfield 5 time heavyweight champion

Edwin Valero's 18 consectutive 1st round KO's

I think Marciano's 49-0-0 will be beaten 9as Larry Holmes and even Nicolay Valuev have been within 1 fight of matching it), but I doubt the fighter that beats it ends his career undefeated.

Can you guys think of any others?

Good records all. Of this list, however, I hold Holyfield's record in the lowest regard. Winning a HW title more than once can be due to so many things. Theoretically, you can... retire and come back, retire and come back, retire and come back... Winning titles in different weight divisions is more impressive to me.

That being said, I doubt Holyfield's record gets broken with the state of the HW division as it is today. (Unless Wlad decides to retire and un-retire five times).
