    Do you only mean famous ones? OK I'm not sure about famous ones but one of my coaches has a degree and he had a couple of bouts. I have a degree and I've had 12. I think Hitmandonny is reasonably close to getting one. It's not so uncommon really.

    I believe Roy Jones has a degree, I know he and Ron Jeremy belong to the same fraternity (go figure the boxer and the pornster)

    i think the klitschkos PHDs are in sports science or something, which is like nutrition, which probably does help them stay in the shape they do
