 John Tate (boxer) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Tate was an American prizefighter and Olympian boxer who briefly held the World Boxing Association Heavyweight title from 1979 to 1980.
Tate's reign would be brief, however, as he would lose the title to Mike Weaver just five months later.
Tate's life after his championship reign was brief and troubled, suffering from a cocaine addiction during the 1980's, being convicted on petty theft and assault charges, serving time in prison, and at times panhandling on the streets of Knoxville, Tennessee.
