  1. Usually when someone asks about a "white" fighter they usually are not talking exclusively about the skin color of a fighter......it usually means a caucasian american fighter so i'm going to assume that's what you want and not answer Vladimir Klitchko............i'm going to attach a list of heavyweight champions that i've found...........just eyeballing it pretty quickly it looks like the last white heavyweight to hold any part of the championship was Tommy Morrison who held the WBO belt from 06/07/93-10/29/93.


  2. The last white heavyweight champion was Ingemar Johansson.

    Rocky Marciano, the greatest fighter to ever live, was the last white American heavyweight champion boxer. He NEVER lost a fight! He was of small stature compared to most fighter's, but he had heart, like no other, and in his day, the American Boxing Association did not act like the pansies they do today, like, if blood is drawn too many times, the fighter must forfeit the fight. They didn't do that then. A fighter fought until they couldn't fight anymore.

    Rocky was the Greatest Fighter to ever live, not Mohammad Ali, as so many proclaim.

    Words don't make you a great boxer. Your record does!

  3. white????? if you mean non african american nor black(mexican, etc) that would have been igmar johanseen of the late 50's and early 60's. he was the last undisputed linear champion. wladimir is only a unified champ

  4. butterbean??

  5. Wladimir Klitschko is still in action. He is now the current IBF and IBO World Heavyweight. Originally from Ukraine, he was in Germany for many years and he is a celebrity in Germany. He is now living in Beverly Hills. His height is nearly 2 meter (6' 6"). Thus, he is a giant and can overpower his opponents by using his height advantage. Quick jab and punching power- these are his main strength. He can also move quite fast in the ring. He was former WBO World Heavyweight (October 14, 2000 - March 8, 2003).

  6. Rocky Marciano

  7. If you are talking about the true linear championship and not paper titles, then the last white American-born heavyweight champion was Rocky Marciano.  If you include paper titles, then Tommy Morrisson held the WBO belt in 1993.

    If you mean white as in the color of their skin and not just born in the U.S., then the last true white linear champion was Ingemar Johansson.  If you include paper titles, then all of the current heavyweight titlists are white (they are eastern European)- Wladimir Klitschko, Ruslan Chagaev, and Oleg Maskaev.  I hope this helps.
