rocky marciano had the best heavyweight record, except another fighter by the name of Ricardo Lopez has a record of 51 wins and no defeats, however undefeated records arent necessary the best records, the record of the largest winning streak is 88 fights... and if the more fights the better, then Len Wickwar should be taken notice of, with an astonishing record of 337 wins, 85 defeats and 42 draws

Because you can't compare those differentthreeeras in boxing (Reasons: Different Know-How in boxing, different Knowledge in boxing, different training methods, different ring rules, different weight class definitionsecc.), I would say It's a tie between Muhammad Ali, Joe Louis and Jack Johnson.
Rocky Marciano retired with a undefeated 49-0 record. The only heavyweight to accomplish such a feat.
