Boxers with the best-documented street fighting "careers"?

Didn't someone sucker punch Ray Robinson for not paying him? It was over sparring dollars or something.

 

Don King.

 

The guy I was talking about was Aaron Wade. Aaron actually was rumoured to have knocked Ray down in sparring and the fight outside the gym was over Robinson telling Wade he was taking a pay cut because he felt the gate for his fight wasn’t going to be good enough.

 

Hasim Rahman was known on the streets as an enforcer

 

Dwight Muhammad Qawi never had an amateur career...he was just a really good street fighter

 

Roberto Duran beating the trash out of his adversaries as a teenagers on the poor streets of Panama. Carlos Monzon beating up the other boys who attempted to steal his newspapers while he was a teenager on the impoverished streets of Santa Fe, Argentina.

 

Just to flip the premise, sort of, for a moment.

It is very well documented that HW Bernie Reynolds, prior to his fighting Marciano, had his clock cleaned by actor Robert Mitchum in a bar fight. Nothing resembling MOQ of course and it was also corroborated that Mitchum wasn’t above giving Reynolds the slipper while he was down.

 

But for who, and did Rahman ever get charged for anything?

 

Sonny Lisron Deadlifting police officers, taking their gun and breaking their leg In the process could be a sport in of itself.
Words Strongest Hoodlum.

 

Tyson beating up Mitch Green

 

a lot of Fighters became 'Minders' or Bodyguards, for Organized Crime, the Underworld or Bookies or Mob Bosses. Some fighters had their own little enterprises too.

the amount of street fights over the years would have been plenty for everyone of these types... Lastly Not All Boxers are 'tough guys' so to speak, some are athletes, some are street fighters, some are both.
