    can't find them. did find that he wanted to play hs football, but couldn't keep up his grades, lol. damn, you are bad at football if a high school or college even care if you attend classes.

    “I was 26 when I actually hit the gym,” Marsellos told FanSided. “I was also 26 when I had my [first] amateur bout.”

    Marsellos didn’t have many amateur bouts. He started so late in the sport that his amateur career had to end abruptly.

    “I haven’t too much of an amateur career — only seven fights,” Marsellos said. “But out of those seven fights I came out with five KOs. I get a lot of teaching with older guys and guys that are more knowledgeable in the game.”

    Originally, Marsellos planned on being a[url] football star[/url]. Deontay had the same aspiration before he started boxing, but Marsellos was an even brighter star on the field. He was a standout wide receiver at Tuscaloosa Central High School, but he didn’t have the grades to accept an FBS scholarship. Rumor has it that [url]Ole Miss and UAB wanted to offer him a scholarship[/url], but academics prevented it from happening.

    Not surprised. Deontay is also suffering from extremely low IQ, it would actually be surprising if he had an academically overachieving brother.

    Too bad about both not attending college, they would have become a bit more level headed and realistic in their ambitions.

    Dexter Manley attended college for four years and upon being drafted by the Redskins, had to sign an x on the contract. he was completely illiterate. if you are good enough, the colleges will find a way to make you eligible.
