The undefeated former champ walked in the induction ceremony like a boss. Certainly, the legacy he left behind gives him all the confidence to portray himself as a megastar.

The 45-year-old legend is a 2021 Hall of Fame inductee along with Roy Jones Jr. But the entire celebration and induction took place this year because the Covid pandemic had forced the Nevada Hall of Fame body to postpone the 2020 and 2021 ceremonies.

The champ walked into the ceremony in black attire with his team. There is no doubt that he was the center figure, despite the presence of other legends. His aura was captivating. A ring on his left hand and the jewelry around his neck were adding more shine to his looks.
