Evander Holyfield, known for his iconic bouts against Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis, and Riddick Bowe, reveals that his biggest rival was actually Rickey Womack, whom he faced six times during their amateur careers.
Holyfield won four out of the six bouts, with their rivalry culminating in the Olympic Box-Offs where Holyfield secured his spot on the 1984 Olympic team.
Despite Womack's potential, his career trajectory was marred by legal troubles, culminating in a 15-year prison sentence and his tragic death in 2002.
