I forgot about Clay-Bey yeah he had some talent and started late problem for him was after the amateurs he did not dedicate himself to training like he should have and by time he started to make some noise he started on the down slide as well...

I think Ron Lyle was like 29 when he started as a pro and he did fairly well in the greatest era of HW boxing...He was almost 55 when he finally retired for good


Though Clay-Bey and Lyle were Hwts a division where you can get away with being older
