Jack Johnson - 73 Wins, 13 Losses
Sporting News/Sporting News via Getty ImagesADVERTISEMENTJack Johnson is an American sporting pioneer and his impact cannot be diminished. He's the first African American to secure a heavyweight title back in 1908 by defeating Tommy Burns in Australia. Nicknamed the "Galveston Giant," he was a defensive wiz as well.
Not only did he have a great defense, but he had outstanding speed matched with great timing. President Trump granted a posthumous pardon to the boxer for when he violated the racially-motivated Mann Act in 1913.
