    Do fake fighters count? If so, Stone Cold Steve Austin is my pick. He was my hero growing up.

    Hmmm....I'll, let the board decide on that one. The amount of PED's in MMA and Wrestling might overload the list.

    I think in order to make it, the fighter had to box professionally or in the movies....so I'm adding Mr. T a tough man winner, and actor in the Rocky movies.

    Was Shavers really bald or did he just shave his head. He had a full head of hair when he fought Stan (the Animal) Johnson in 1969. I haven't read his autobigraphy, but he might mention whether he shaved his head or not. Earnie "Shavers!"

    In his most famous fights, Ali, Norton and Foreman, he didn't have any.

    I've seen photos of him early in his career, and he had a big bald spot up top so he probably just shaved it to save the trouble.

    Who, before he went bald, had a hell of a 'fro that he was always styling.

    Back when he was known as Bad Bennie Frizzcomb,
