Some sources have Joe Coburn - Bare Knuckle Heavyweight Champion, BUT he was beaten twice during his career.

Here's some others that were Undefeated:

10. Ricky Womack - (1984-2001) (defeated Holyfield 3 times in the amateur) 13(6) - 0 (0) - 1

There even more, BUT I don't think I have the room to put them all in.

Rocky Marciano is to this date the only undefeated heavyweight champion.
