    Default 4 heavyweights with 3 things in common, I'll give you 1, which will leave 2.

    These four heavyweights had three things in common. They were all Affrican-American. What are the other two things.
    Sam Langford
    Harry Wills
    Joe Jeanette
    Sam McVey

    I'd guess one being that none of them ever got a chance to fight for a proper HW title, they were avoided by the likes of Dempsey or whichever other white champions? No clue as to another.

    Actually, I think that Langford, McVey, and Jeanette were avoided by Jack Johnson. He was black, too.

    Never received a shot at the world heavyweight crown, but all have been elected to the International Boxing Hall of Fame.

    We are a bit thick at maths on here.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
