I'm talking about Marion Wilson of course!
How do you rank this journeyman heavyweight on the all time journeyman ranking?
Just as impressive as his chin is his resume. Some of the guys Marion mixed it up with over the years include:
Sam Peter,
Tony Thompson
Hasim Rahman
Larry Donald
Oleg Maskeav
Page Wolfram
Carl Williams
Ike Ibeabuchi
Obed Sullivan
David Izon (twice)
Andrew Golota (twice)
Kirk Johnson
Tyrell Biggs
Franz Botha
Shannon Briggs
Ray Mercer
These opponents had a combined record of 272-23-1 at the time they faced Wilson.
What's also interesting to me is that he fought both Davis Izon and Andrew Golota, both several years apart. I remember his later fights with both those guys, but didnt realize at the time he fought both of them already. There was no boxrec back then.
