T. J. Wilson (b. 1975 February 13 in Tulsa as TJ Edward Wilson) is an American heavyweight who won the US Amateur Super Heavyweight championship in 2000.
Amateur
Tall southpaw Wilson had a stellar amateur career. The counterpuncher was an Olympic alternate in 1996 and was the American boxer at the World Championships 1997 where he lost early to eventual runner-up Alexis Rubalcaba.
He crowned his career with a win at the United States amateur (AAU) Super Heavyweight championships in 2000. He beat 1999 national champion Calvin Brock in the Olympic qualification, too, but lost the rematch 5:6 again having to settle for alternate. He also beat Dominic Guinn in the amateurs.
Pro
He turned pro afterwards but suffered a major disappointment getting knocked out cold by clubfighter Willie Chapman.
In 2007 he sensationally KOd undefeated prospect Travis Walker in just 15 seconds. He lost the rematch by KO2.
As of February 2008 Wilson's professional record was 12-2 with 8 knockouts.
