Undefeated careers of ten boxing dynamites (Part I)
Boxing is among the most famous sports of the World. Some of the great boxers and their impressive boxing career play a very vital role to boost the popularity of boxing.
It is hard to be digested but it is a fact that there were ten boxers, who went undefeated, in their boxing career. Their fabulous boxing carrier is briefly discussed below:
Rocky Marciano
Rocky Marciano “The Brockton Blockbuster” was an Italian-American boxer and the heavyweight champion of the World from September 23, 1952, to April 27, 1956. When he retired he became the only heavyweight champion to finish his career undefeated.
He lacked height, his arms were short, and he certainly wasn't the most graceful fighter. But Rocky Marciano defeated every opponent he faced, most of them by knockout.
Marciano's legend is enhanced by the fact that he was highly respected as a person as well as a fighter. He was a dedicated family man, and that's one of the reasons he retired from the ring.
Unlike so many of boxing's other great champions, he never fought again after announcing his retirement.
The thing which made Marciano great was his God-given knockout power. He could flatten his opponents with wide, looping shots, or dispatch them with short punches that traveled mere inches.
Marciano’s “The Rock from Brockton” unbeaten career contains 49 wins, 0 loss and 43 knockouts.
Joe Calzaghe
Joe Calzaghe is a former Welsh professional boxer. Calzaghe is sometimes referred to as the "Pride of Wales", or the "Italian Dragon" in reference to his mixed heritage. He is a living undefeated boxing legend.
The undefeated former two-weight World champion left boxing exactly two years ago on Monday becoming only the fourth European boxer, to retire as an undefeated World champion.
But unlike a lot of pugilistic peers that have gone before, Calzaghe does not miss fighting, the paydays or the adulation that comes with such a unique and celebrated unblemished record.
Calzaghe now lives in swanky Notting Hill and his only training these days is a twice-weekly run around Hyde Park and has only been "on the pads" in the gym twice in 12 months.
Samson Dutch Boy Gym
Samson Dutch Boy Gym, also known as Samson 3-K Battery and Samson Toyota-Thailand, is a former professional boxer from Thailand.
He won the lightly-regarded World Boxing Federation (WBF) version of the World super flyweight title in September 1994, in his fourth professional fight.
In total he made 38 consecutive defenses of the title, before retiring in April 2002 with a final record of 43-0, making him one of a handful of boxers to retire undefeated.
Sven Ottke
Sven Ottke known as "The Phantom,” is a former German professional boxer, who remained undefeated throughout his professional career. He held the International Boxing Federation (IBF) World super middleweight title from 1998 to 2004. Ottke became the third
European boxer to retire as an undefeated World champion
He escaped undefeated in 43 fights of his career.
Mihai Leu
Mihai Leu also known as Michael Loewe is a former Romanian boxer. He is the son of Nicolae Leu, a famous auto racing sportsman and Ana.
He once held the WBO welterweight title and retired after one title defense, becoming the second European boxer to retire as an undefeated World champion.
He had 28 wins of 28 matches in welterweight.
As an amateur boxer he fought 200 matches and won 190. He had to leave boxing because of an accident but couldn't leave sport for good, that's why he went to motoring.
