Kevin Ford (boxer)

Kevin Ford (born August 3, 1962) is an American former heavyweight professional boxer.

Amateur career
Ford is a native of Sacramento, California, graduating from Rio Linda High School, but he moved to Houston in 1987 to further his boxing career. He had a stellar amateur career, becoming the 1988 National Golden Gloves super heavyweight champion. Prior to the win, he lost to Riddick Bowe in 1988 Olympic Trials.

Professional career
Ford turned pro in 1989 and was undefeated in his first 9 bouts before losing to Tony Willis by TKO in 1990. He then lost a decision to Joe Hipp in 1992 and again in 1993. He retired later that year after a TKO loss to James Smith.
