    Balado was super-heavyweight, Stevension and Savon were heavyweights. Balado was very talented and unbelievable mobile for his weight. Unfortunately he died in a car accident

    Stevenson was fighting at 81+ (superheavy at that time) for a lot of his career!

    I highly doubt Povetkin only started boxing at age 20. That might have been when he made the transition to being a full time amateur boxer, but I'm sure he started younger than that.
