Who's Who..? Heavyweight roll call.
This photo I took from the 1990s is of a training camp in California.. Featured in this are former world heavyweight title challenger to Larry Holmes, Scott Ledoux .. Heavyweight contender and brother of former WBA heavyweight champion Tony, Nate Tubbs.. Contender Elijah Tillery, top rated heavyweight Mark Wills.. Featuring at the very back Olympic Superheavyweight Gold medalist from 1984, former Heavyweight title challenger to Mike Tyson, Tyrell Biggs.. Scott is sadly passed now, Elijah boxed two notorious fights with a young Riddick Bowe, Nate Tubbs was serving sparring partner to Mike Tyson and also handed future heavyweight champion Corrie Sanders his first loss by KO. Mark Wills was a dangerous heavyweight throughout the 80's boxing everyone, beating a peak Greg Page on national Tv. Who's son Damien Bolo Wills carries the Wills name into the ring today as a promising heavyweight. Tyrell Biggs fought a whole list of top heavyweights after turning pro.. James Tillis, Renaldo Snipes, David Bey, Lennox Lewis, Gary Mason, Francisco Damiani, Riddick Bowe and Jeff Simms... Lennox is rarely seen in public but a documentary is being filmed called whatever happened to Tyrell Biggs featuring Biggs and his commitment to young aspiring fighters in his neighbourhood in Philly.. This photo has a bit of history attached..
