    Jobs before they became boxers?

    Does anyone know any jobs some of the boxers had before they actually become professional?

      Joe Calzaghe was a pillow fluffer for several years before boxing.

      And Wlad Klitschko is said to have been one of the greatest male fluffers of all time and still does it on the side to this day.

                Ricky Hatton was an dietician.

                Antonio Tarver was an archeologist.

                And apparently Pacman featured in games, like actually in them. Wierd.
