ABOUT IRAN BARKLEY

'The Blade' was a world champion in three middleweight divisions.

He scored one of the biggest upsets in boxing history with his defeat of Tommy Hearns in 1988.

He spent his $5 million and became homeless.

He was a gang member until his family convinced him to channel that chaotic energy into boxing.

He lost his IBF super-middleweight title to James Toney in 1993.
