[edit] Professional career

Brewster turned professional in 1996 and was undefeated for his first three years as a pro until losing decisions to Clifford Etienne and Charles Shufford in 2000.

On April 10, 2004, Brewster shockingly knocked out Wladimir Klitschko in the fifth round to win the vacant WBO Heavyweight Championship in Las Vegas. While Klitschko dominated the fight at first, Brewster survived the onslaught and rallied to knock out Klitschko. Klitschko claimed that he had been drugged, but this claim was never proven.

Brewster lost his WBO title by unanimous decision on April 1, 2006 to Sergei Liakhovich from Belarus in an action-packed fight. In an interview following the fight, Brewster said that he could not see with his left eye after the first round. It was later confirmed that he had suffered a detached retina in his left eye and he had to undergo surgery.

Lamon Brewster returned to the ring on July 7, 2007, losing his rematch against Wladimir Klitschko after trainer Buddy McGirt stopped the fight after the sixth round. The fight took place in Köln (Cologne), Germany and was for the IBO and IBF Heavyweight Titles.

[edit] Personal

Brewster has two children with his wife and one from his previous relationship. He has two girls and a boy. He is also a cousin of former IBF world Heavyweight Champion Chris Byrd. Lamon Brewster also started to star in public service announcements against dog fighting.
