The Convention was attended by some of the most important figures in boxing, past and present. Mike Tyson was the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world from 1 August 1987 to 11 February 1990, winning 10 consecutive universal titles and 12 in total. Julio Cesar Chavez won his first 87 fights and 87 of his 107 victories were by knockout, was world champion in three divisions (super feather, light and super light) and won 31 fights for a world crown). 

A bronze medallist at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, Evander Holyfield became the first undisputed cruiserweight world champion in 1998 by defeating Carlos de León, and repeated the feat in 1990 with a victory over James Buster Douglas in the heavyweight division. He won 16 fights for the world title, retaining it with a draw against Lennox Lexis in March 1999 before losing it to the Brit six months later. 

Oleksandr Usyk is one of today's biggest boxing stars, with a professional career that began after he won the heavyweight gold medal at the London 2012 Olympic Games. Undefeated in 21 professional fights (14 by way of KO), the Ukrainian is the current IBF, Super WBA, IBO, WBO and The Ring heavyweight champion, and on 17 February he'll face WBC champion Tyson Fury in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in a bid to unify all the heavyweight crowns. 

Britain's Amir Khan, silver medallist at the 2004 Athens Olympics, has achieved six consecutive super-lightweight titles. And finally, Shannon Briggs won in 60 of his 67 bouts (53 by knockout), and once held the heavyweight world title by defeating Siarhei Liakhovich on November 4, 2006.
