Axel Schulz
Heavyweight
Although he never won a major title, Axel succeeded and still succeeds in winning over people in Germany, making him one of the most popular boxers in Germany.
This is thanks to his straightforward, honest manner, his exceptional taker qualities and, of course, his humour.
His determined and courageous fight against George Foreman in Las Vegas is unforgettable. And although he lost this fight, he was known and appreciated all over the world afterwards.
