    Nah, bro.

    I got tapes of the Tunney/Greb fights, they were clear robberies. Tunney in reality retired 67-0 not counting newspaper decisions. :deal

    Chavez had tons of gardeners, painters and other rough boxers fed to him by his promoter

    So did fighters like SRR, Duran, Hagler and Roy Jones Jr(to some extent) etc. it's what old school fighters did. Some of those fighters didn't have the luxury of Olympic experience they had to learn on the job. Having said that, Chavez's record is still impressive. :deal

    Lopez was awesome.

    Floyd is 45-1-2 in reality (Castillo I clear loss, DLH, Maidana I).

    Allow me to clarify this statement. Other fighters have had longer undefeated streaks (Greb and Chavez come to mind), but 50-0 would still be the longest unblemished career by a world champion, and Barry would still hold the record for most wins by a champion that retired undefeated.

    So, this statement stands. :deal

    I thought the point was obvious...But apparently it wasn;t obvous to others on this site. :conf
