Floyd Mayweather's record means a lot to his brand, his legacy and his persona
Also Julio Cesar Chavez was mostly fighting tomato cans and cab drivers
We talking about legacy in here not brand, Floyd is at the end of his career
floyd's legacy isn't going to be his record it's the skills his displayed in the ring
The record is the record, Marciano was fighting cans to and only defended his belt six times half against former middleweights
the whole point is the record never meant shyt, this is an espn talking point for casuals
Chavez defended his superfeather weight belt 9 times, won the light weight belt defended it twice before beating roger mayweather again for the WBC Light Welterweight belt and defended it 12 times before losing to Frankie Randall then winning it back from him the next fight then defending it 4 more times including the fighter of year with Meldrick Taylor
Chavez record is way more impressive than rocky marciano's, he was 89-0 before he even tasted the canvas
like I said it's nothing but media bias to bring up rocky's record who only defended the title 6 times, when Joe Louis still has the record for 25 title defenses, and overlook chavez and a bunch of other fighters
nobody things 49-0 is a big deal except casuals
