I thought Bryant Jennings might have had one too (I was wrong).. but when I looked up Jennings I came across this other kid Alex Barbosa who has two degrees from Temple.
Also, Tom Zbikowsi who still plays for the Colts is active sometimes in the off-season. His fights were with top rank, I think.Comment

The Klitschkos can't be compared to the others. They have Doctorates, which take an extra
2, sometimes (with a thesis), 3 years. They had to get a Batchelor's degree first.Comment

Matthew Macklin has graduated from College and started Law School but stopped to focus full time on Boxing.
Born in Birmingham, England, to Irish parents, Macklin was studying law at Coventry University while simultaneously competing as an amateur boxer. After winning the national senior Amateur Boxing Association of England welterweight title in 2001, Macklin made the decision to put his studies on hold, to the ire of his parents, in order to pursue a professional boxing career.
