which unbeaten champions lose their zeros this year?

Back in the day a fighter lost or got knocked out and he simply dusted himself down and moved on.

Losses matter less than great fights. But I’ve seen plenty of serious posters in this forum treat a fighter’s first loss as “exposing” him and proving that he obviously never would have been able to hang with various old-school champions.

Sugar Ray Robinson was 40-0 when he fought Jake La Motta. He'd already beaten him once. Ray was a Welterweight. Jake was a middleweight. 14 pounds ? No problem. He fights La Motta for a second time. La Motta wins via a brutal 15 round decision. Becoming the 1st person to beat Ray Robinson

They rematch again 21 days later.

But it's get better.

Sugar Ray fights a 10 rounder a week later to prepare him for the La Motta rematch.



Ray wins the rematch via decision. Then goes undefeated for his next eighty fights.

That's eighty fights in 8 years

Until he loses to Randolph Turpin in 1951 (And this lose was probably because this was the last fight of European tour. A tour of seven fights in two months and he beat Turpin in rematch two months later)

That's why all these undefeated fighters need to humble themselves. The top fighters only fight every 9 months and avoid risks well to be fair it's mainly their promoters and managers. But probably better to ask over the next 3 years or who will lose their "0" first. I didn't recognize everyone in the list but surprised the likes of Tank or Shakur wasn't on that list.
