Only Boxer To Retire Undefeated

My God, some of these answers are ridicoulous. Muhammad Ali had 5 losses, Mike Tyson got his *** kick countless times, and Lennox Lewis had two knockout losses(Olviver McCall and Hasim Rahman). The only heavyweight to retire undefeated was Rocky Marciano. He was very overated though. He had only 7 title defenses and most of the people he fought were shells of thier former selves. Joe Louis was ancient when they fought and Jersey Joe Walcott was beating the snot out of him when Marciano landed a "perfect" right hand that wouldve knocked out an elephant. Marciano was tough and a hard puncher, but a great champion he was not.
