    Lets make it light heavyweights from the same decade.

    Matthew Saad Muhammed (Matt Franklin)
    Eddie Mustapha Muhammed (Eddie Gregory )
    Dwight Muhammed Qawi ( Dwight Braxton )

    by the way. I worded my Arguello answer wrong. You have to add that each title was defended at least once.

    What world champion boxer appeared in the ring with Robert deNiro in the movie Raging Bull. There may be more than one answer, I'm not sure.

    Eddie Mustafa Muhammed, no idea on the album title though.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    Right you are on the Raging Bull Question. I'll leave the album question out there a while longer.

    Yeah, the Album I was thinking about was titled Jack Johnson. The musician was Miles Davis, so I suppose Mos Def is not far off alphabetically.
