    never heard about the assasination attempt. But he is the only boxer who has won titles in three or more weight divisions, all by defeating a reigning champion in the ring, and who has never lost a title defence. Even Floyd can't claim that.

    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    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.

    Amazingly, Armstrong started his career with a 1-3 record...only in boxing.

    I don't know a lot of boxing trivia, but here goes...

    Which famous musician released an album named after a heavyweight champion?

    One more...

    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.
