    To make things more reasonable, let's say the undefeated fighter had to have at least ten victorys.

    Marlon Starling had 4, you could argue he won multiple more.

    James Toney has 7.

    Sumbu Kalambay has 6.

    Bernard Hopkin's has 5, with a case for 7.

    Donald Curry, 5.

    Terry Norris, 8.

    Hoya, 6.

    Larry Holmes made a living beating on Embryo's in the mid 1980s, so i suspect he will be the champ in this thread.

    Yes, before siad fighters slipped into drugs, with the motivation to keep their 0's. It's not as simple as 'They were inexperienced".

    Many of those men fought their best fights ever against Holmes, such as Witherspoon and William's. Holmes was the great white whale of that decade, he had a price tag on his head and many came to collect.

    Starling doesn't win, but at one time he was heavily noted for being a prospect killer :yep

    The highly touted and flying Baret, Ayers and Brown were all put into their respective places at the time. For some (silly) reason managers started to see him as a barometer and these three matched up with him when they thought their fighters were ready. Trouble was, he was VERY underrated at this time which he subsequently proved.
