Larger-than-life Irish actor and writer Seamus Patrick McDonagh is a charismatic contradiction of a man with a huge infectious smile, an honors degree in English literature and a powerful left hook. Up from obscurity to become Golden Gloves champion by knocking out all his opponents, the then third-ranked cruiserweight in the world moved up to the heavyweight division in 1990. Against all odds he fought Evander Holyfield for the heavyweight championship.

    If you want a snapshot of the dire state of heavyweight boxing, look at the contrasting circumstances of Evander Holyfield and Seamus Patrick McDonagh. They fought nearly 17 years ago and both are still in the headlines, but for vastly contrasting reasons.
