J. B. Williamson

J. B. Williamson

J. B. Williamson (born December 18, 1956 in Indianapolis, Indiana) was a professional boxer in the light heavyweight (175 lb) division.

Williamson turned pro in 1979 after a successful amateur career and won the Vacant WBC Light Heavyweight Title in 1985 in a decision over Prince Mama Mohammed. He lost the title in his first defense against Dennis Andries. Although he never challenged again for another major title, he moved up to heavyweight and became a journeyman fighter, fighting until 1995, losing matches against notable heavyweights Henry Akinwande, Peter McNeeley, Jimmy Thunder, and George Foreman.
