Saint Jones for sure. Not only is his streak the most impressive, he did it while being a full time humanitarian and spreading the good word of Jesus while running a full time charity business. Imagine if he focused on fighting only, his record would be like 81-1
He was beating top LWH's in the world while oftentimes barely applying himself to training and coming off week-long partying and Coke binges leading up to the fight. He didn't even take fighting that seriously, and still the worst people can say about him as a fighter is they believe he lost to Santos & Reyes. He went as long as he did without losing and he was essentially half-assing it a decent portion of his career. And yet he'll always be in the GOAT discussion.
If he had focused only on fighting there would be no debate here. A coke head who basically fought for fun is on a lot of people's top spot.
