Just looking at the summary of his life on Wiki, and it reads like a country and western song.
Are you sure?

Ray Mercer won Heavyweight Olympic Gold in 88 and the WBO title in 91

I'm certain that I'm not sure. :emoticon-0107-sweat

I'm even less certain having looked at Mercer's Wiki page. Yours looks like a good call to me. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Mercer

2nd paragraph. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Joshua He is also the second boxer, after Joe Frazier, to win a world heavyweight title whilst still reigning as Olympic champion at the top weight.

He could have been the greatest ever.

If you don't know who he is then you know **** all about boxing.

FACT.

No match for my man.
