Former undisputed boxing World Champion, Evander Holyfield has revealed that he was not once as big as he now is and was nicknamed 'little Holyfield' as a teenager.
Holyfield, who was the undisputed champion in both the cruiserweight and heavyweight divisions, revealed that he weighed less than 160 pounds and was 5-foot-9-inches tall when he graduated high school, New York Post reported.
The retired American boxer, who grew to 208 pounds and 6-foot-1-inches by his heavyweight days in the 1990s, joked that his high school friends couldn't call him 'little Holyfield' anymore when he went back for a reunion.
