    He's romanian mate,his name is Alexandru Manea.He has a record of 0-50 indeed.Came out of retirement to lose another won against a pro debut guy a few months ago.

    For his sake I hope he is done,the guy must have **** for brains.

    Anyway honorable mention to Kirino Garcia who lost 18 or 20 first fights and then actually had himself a decent career.

    Uh... nope. That 31 fight losing streak was his career. Retired 0-31 (31 KO). Legend.

    Carlos Monzon had like 3 draws and 3 losses in his first 20 fights. Not really an ideal start to your career.

    Ended up being one of the greatest Middleweights of all time.

    Arguably the greatest fighter of all time went 1-3 in his first 4 fights.
