Age 26 with no amateur or professional fights (and sounds like no sparring). Good luck.

Following in the footsteps of Mark Gastineau, Alonzo Highsmith, and Ed "Too Tall" Jones.

Jim Brown actually thought he could box at a very high level too, until Muhammad Ali slap-boxed with Jim and put him in his place.

And who in the heavyweight division has 1/10th of the athleticism as Ali? Most NFL players wouldn't excel in boxing though. It's the athletes that the NBA takes that hurt boxing the most.
