I was doubting myself on that one because he looks a lot younger than his years. But he has always had a brilliant build. He'd have been a fantastic bodybuilder. He has a look of one of the best bodybuilders from the 80s, Mike Christian.
just to make us feel old, Mike Weaver is 60 in 2012!!

Purely a guess based on the watermark in the picture - its not the saviour of the devision, Ike Ibeuachi (or however you spell it).

After a very sad few weeks in boxing for me this quiz was great and put a smile on my face seeing these guys and inspired me to do my own little picture quiz for past Heavyweights.
