Knockouts are common in the heavyweight class, far more than in the lower weight classes. So for a boxer to not only go 49-0 but to also get 43 knockouts in the process sounds like an impossibility.
The famous Klitschko brothers couldn’t even rack up those kinds of wins. Floyd Mayweather may have a higher knock out rate but he’s in a lower weight class and intentionally avoids both delivering and taking big hits, so we can’t compare.
Paula Radcliffe Is The World's Best
Apparently there is a difference between the "world record" and "world's best." In any case, the "world's best" title belongs to the former British long-distance runner, Paula Radcliffe who set it in a race where she was paced by men.
That title is still over two minutes faster than any women's marathon in history. Her speed is simply unbeatable and no one other woman has come close. The only one who can top that title is Radcliff herself.
Grete Waitz The History Maker
Grete Waitz achieved the unimaginable when she did not only become the first woman in history to run a marathon in under two and a half hours, but she also won 9 New York City Marathons between 1978 and 1988. That is more than any other runner in history.
How did she do it? Sheer super-human abilities apparently.
Cael Sanderson Non-Stop Perfection
Not only did wrestler Cael Sanderson get a crazy number of matches on his way to snatching up his four consecutive NCAA titles, but he also did it without a single loss. Even the best talent have bad days. Apparently not him.
That kind of consistent perfection seems to belong exclusively to Cael Sanderson. Oh, and he also has an Olympic gold medal.
A Killer Streak For This UConn Team
During the college basketball season of 31 games, the Huskies team from the University of Connecticut has pulled off some unbelievable feats. The female basketball team has four consecutive national championships. As a whole, UConn managed to win 111 games.
Not only that, but they also beat their previous record of 91 easily. Unfortunately, their reign lasted between 2014 and 2017. The match ended thanks to a buzzer-beater from Mississippi State and they were sent packing. Did things turn around? We'll see.
