About Marion Wilson

  • Marion Wilson (born October 19, 1956) is an American former heavyweight professional boxer who competed from 1989 to 2007.
  • Wilson, despite having faced some of the hardest punchers of his era, has never been stopped in his professional career.
  • As a result, he is considered by many to have one of the best chins in boxing history, and boxing writer James Slater included him on a list of boxing's best "chins" and Livefight.com ranked him as #8 in terms of best heavyweight chins ever.
  • Wilson faced virtually all notable prospects of his time with perfect records, stopping several promising winning streaks as well as taking former heavyweight champion Ray Mercer to a draw.
  • In the words of the ABC Sports Network's boxing analyst Al Bernstein, Wilson is a veteran fighter, who "has not won many fights, but always gives these youngsters a tough time." He holds wins over Corey Sanders, Mike Hunter, and Paea Wolfgramm.
