2nd longest winning streak

Jimmy Wilde went undefeated his first 102 fights. Robinson had a 91 fight unbeaten streak. Packey McFarland put together like 93 wins and five draws after his one loss, I think. Looks like Pedro Carrasco also has a 93 win plus one draw streak. Duilio Loi put together 67 wins and a couple of draws. Nino Benvenuti put together 65 wins in a row. Monzon got 71 wins and 9 draws in a streak. Freddie Steele had a run of 54 wins with a draw and a no contest thrown in. Ricardo Lopez retired 51-0-1. Rocky Marciano went 49-0. Larry Holmes went 48-0. Henry Armstrong had a 46 fight win streak. Gene Tunney went 40-0-1 before losing to Greb and then never lost again. Benny Leonard had a 47 fight winning streak between his losses to Johnny Dundee and Willie Ritchie. Brian Nielsen 49-0. Joe Calzaghe 46-0. Harry Greb went 78-0-2 from 1917-1920. Marcel Cerdan went 45-0 107-0 if you don't count the two DQs.

 

All legends there...

 

Pedro Carrasco, el marino de los puños de oro. :good

 

Sure, except for maybe Nielsen. Also, Pep 62, Olivares 61, Zarate 52, Pascual Perez 51, Eder Jofre 47.

 

Well, yeah...

 

Pongsaklek Wonjongkam

His 56 fight win streak was snapped in his third fight with Daisuke Naito. In that streak, he was 18-0 in Lineal Flyweight Title fights.

Baller...

 

:shock: 80 fights in 3 years.

 

Buck Smith went 101-0 with 6 No-Decisions thru 107 fight from July of '89 thru November of '92. He was 22-2-2 prior to this stretch. Harold Brazier got the best of him in a couple of those No-Decisions.

 

Tony Ayala Jr turned pro in 1980
didnt take his first loss until 2000

of course in the middle of that streak he was in prison for ra.pe

 

Sugar Ray Robinson is reported to be 85-0 with 69 knockouts as an amateur
(supposedly lost 2 fights under his birth name Walker Smith)
he was 40-0 as a pro until losing to LaMotta

according to whats in the record books, he went 125-0 until his first loss

 

A winning streak of 3 can be bigger than a winning streak of 50, without taking the level of opposition into account numbers mean almost nothing.

 

yeah but that wasnt the question

 

these kinds of records are hard to wrap your head around. if i fought 100 fights in 3 years, even at my level of bar room loudmouth, the amount of trauma my body would endure with little time to heal between punishment, would steal years off my life. if i continually fought someone every 2 weeks for 3 years straight, i would have 85 fights... these guys were tough.

 

I prefer to think their records are partially fake and full of shiet, padded to the max with lots of bums who'd make current bums look like top fighters. specially in the cases of unicorns like Harry Greb where no footage of actual fights exist
