Michael Prevost
German boxer Canadian boxer
Michael Prevost (born June 5, 1953 on a Canadian military base in Hameln, Germany) is a retired amateur boxer who represented Canada at the 1976 Summer Olympics. There he was disqualified (for holding while looking at the clock to determine how much time remained) in his first fight against Vasile Didea of Romania by an Australian referee. On being disqualified, he stomped around the ring for several minutes and would not leave. The referee was also later disqualified when he was found with a suspicious amount of money that was not in his possession when entering Canada. Prevost won the silver medal at the 1975 Pan American Games.
