#DURING a visit to the Bahamas this week, former Bahamian professional boxer Quincy ‘Thrill-A-Minute’ Pratt met former world heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield.

#Holyfield was in town and was having dinner at the Fish Fry when Pratt, a taxi driver, caught up with the American former professional boxer who competed between 1984 and 2011.

#He reigned as the undisputed champion at cruiserweight in the late 1980s and at heavyweight in the early 1990s, and is the only boxer in history to win the undisputed championship in two weight classes in the three-belt era.

#Nicknamed “the Real Deal”, Holyfield is the only four-time world heavyweight champion, having held the unified WBA, WBC and IBF titles from 1990 to 1992, the WBA and IBF titles again from 1993 to 1994, the WBA title a third time from 1996 to 1999, the IBF title a third time from 1997 to 1999 and the WBA title for a fourth time from 2000 to 2001.

#Pratt was best known for his three pro fights with former Bahamian bantamweight champion Ray Minus Jr. Pratt was a former sparring partner of Minus Jr before he challenged him. However, he lost all three bouts against Minus Jr before they both retired.
