Evander Holyfield
The youngest of nine children, Evander Holyfield was born on October 19, 1962, in the mill town of Atmore, Alabama.
His mother, Annie Laura Holyfield, moved the family to Atlanta, Georgia, several years later. By the example that she set, Mrs. Holyfield taught her children that hard work was key to reaching their goals, thus establishing a quality that Evander Holyfield would exhibit in every aspect of his life.
As a child, Holyfield had dreams of representing his new hometown on the football field as an Atlanta Falcon. With his mother's encouragement, and a membership at the Warren Memorial Boy's Club in southeast Atlanta, Holyfield started out on the 65-pound team as offensive fullback and middle linebacker on defense. He quickly distinguished himself on the field, but it was an 8-year-old's curiosity about a restricted area at the boy's club that led Holyfield to his athletic destiny: boxing.
