Answer 2

Evander Holyfield (born October 19, 1962 in Atmore, Alabama) is a professional boxer from The United States. Holyfield won a bronze medal at the 1984 Summer Olympics (held in Los Angeles, California) after losing a controversial disqualification to New Zealand's Kevin Barry. His nickname is The Real Deal. Though some might claim Evander Holyfield is a "four time world champion", this claim is spurious to most boxing historians, who claim that Holyfield only regained the lineal heavyweight championship of the world once when he beat Riddick Bowe in their 1993 rematch. Evander is also the younger brother of actor and dancer, Bernard Holyfield. Evander currently lives in Atlanta with his wife, and three children
