Born as Ras-I Alujah Bramble, the icon is best remembered for his two victories over Ray Mancini.

The hard-hitter knocked out his rival at the Buffalo Memorial Auditorium to claim the WBA lightweight belt in 1984.

He retained his crown in the rematch against Mancini a year later and when facing Tyrone Crawley.

But in one of the biggest upsets of the generation, Bramble lost his title to Edwin Rosario in 1986.
