Great Olympic boxer: Teofilo Stevenson

[Alexandoy]

At 6 feet, 5 inches, Teofilo Stevenson of Cuba is one of the tallest boxers in the Olympics. He had won 3 Olympic gold medals as an amateur and was undefeated for 11 years until he met his match in the person of Italian Francesco Damiani. Stevenson was offered $5 million to fight Muhammad Ali but he declined the offer in favor of the Olympic games where he won his 3[SUP]rd[/SUP] gold medal.

correct solution. I think that the Olympic Games are more important

I remember seeing him fight a long long time ago, and just until right now pretty much had slipped my mind. It just makes me want to see all these great boxers go head to head, but of course it won't happen and we can barely get active fighters to fight each other.
