Four of the boxers the are sons of former world champions–Elijah McCall, Aaron Pryor Jr., Ronald Hearns and John Jackson–and two of the fathers, Aaron Pryor and Thomas Hearns, are nominees for the “World’s Greatest Ever Boxer.”
The card is promoted by Seminole Warriors Boxing of Davie, Fla.
At the awards gala the age-old question about who are the all-time greatest boxers finally will be answered. Muhammad Ali was the self-proclaimed “Greatest.” But was it really Ali or, instead, “Sugar” Ray Robinson or Joe Louis? And then there are current boxers such as Floyd Mayweather, Jr. and Manny Pacquiao?
The winners in the eight original weight divisions plus “The World’s Greatest Ever Boxer” will be announced Dec. 13, the final day of a three-day celebration of these outstanding boxers in Las Vegas.
