The WBC mourns the death of former boxer Dwight Davison

We have received the sad news of the death of the former middleweight contender of the 1980s, Dwight “Dynamite” Davison.

Davison had a 28-0 record before suffering his first loss against Robbie Epps on the same card of the Larry Holmes-Trevor Berbick fight in Las Vegas. Davison recovered and scored several important victories.
In the second half of the eighties, Davison began to level down, losing 6 of his last 13 fights to finish his career with 44 wins and 8 losses.

The World Boxing Council and its President, Mauricio Sulaimán Saldívar, send Dwight’s family and friends their deepest condolences.
