Boxing Records Least likely to be broken...

[No Contest]

Sugar Ray Robinson's streak of 90 fights without a loss. Doubt that will broken anytime soon.

[milmascaras1]

how about julio cesar chavez' 90 fight win streak to start a career? say what you want but that's pretty impressive. also, his all-time best of 27 successful title defenses overall.

pacquiao's eight division world titles is probably going to stand the test of time and might not be broken for many decades, if ever.

ultimately, i believe most records will be broken with the exception of those early boxers who had like 250-300 fights. that will never be duplicated again.

[Beanflicker]

I guess the obvious answer would be anything that has to do with the number of fights. Obviously its very unlikely that anyone now adays is going to break Archie Moore's KO record. Fighters today wouldn't have 130 career fights, let alone be able to record 130 knockout wins.

Most defences of the unified heavy title (WBC, IBF and WBA) Mike Tyson holds that.

Youngest ever heavyweight champ, Mike Tyson Holds that.

The fighter who appears in the biggest upsets of the sport the most, Mike Tyson holds that

The only 22 year old to have won Ring magazine fighter of the year Twice, Mike Tyson holds that.

All together Mike has 12 Ring awards, 2 fighter of the years, 1 fight of the year, 1 KO of the year, 2 upset of the years, 4 events of the year, 1 round of the year and 1 prospect of the year.

Tyson may have had some kind of unified deal under modern bullshit but Louis was the undisputed champion and still holds the record at 25 defenses.

Yeah but there was a reason Louis's defences were called bums of the month.

Im gonna have a look and compare the calibre of fighters that Tyson and Louis defended their titles against. I bet Mikes were a far better quality over all

Joe Louis beat at least 8 hall of famers in his career. That I know. Tyson only beat 1, and that was a faded Holmes. Fact.

Sugar Ray Robinson's streak of 90 fights without a loss. Doubt that will broken anytime soon.

Im pretty sure SRR lost to Jake LaMotta after about 40 something fights.

Anyway as for the thread.

Phillip Holiday vs Ivan Robinson = Most punches thrown and landed in any fight using Compubox, im not sure of the exact stats but its crazy.

Michael Spinks is a hall of famer, he was an amazing Light Heavyweight one of the best at all time. And he was a good Heavyweight aswell, he was just scared and didn't turn up vs Mike Tyson.

Oh I forgot about Spinks.

Also fighting 200 times and beating everyone in his era and only getting knocked out once by heat exhaustion is a record in its own. And I think SRR was 85-0 in the amateurs. The man was baaaad.

What about Sucra Oliveira vs Zack Padillia with over 3 k thrown,landed ?

[miron_lang]

George Foreman winning the Heavyweight crown 20 yrs apart (1973 and 1994). - That's mind boggling

Those old dudes having close to 200 fights.

What do you think are the boxing records in general or for a specific weight class that are least likely to be broken?

Here's a couple I think are pretty safe
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?

The Valero one has already been broken by Tyrone Brunson.

I think the Tyson one can be beat as he was a titlist at 20, I think that is doable again.

[Nameless]

Being champion at 17 doesn't sound to me like something likely to be beaten, I would personally go with that one.

given the state of the HW division and seeing how the average fighter in the division is in their 30's i don't really think it'll be broken anytime soon

Being champion at 17 doesn't sound to me like something likely to be beaten, I would personally go with that one.

in the US at least it won't be broken, seeing how you have to at least be 18 to turn pro so no chance in hell they'll become champion at 17
