 6'3"
(1.9m) actor and model Ngo Okafor also boxes. So he gets paid to have a handsome
face AND let men punch it. Talk about having it all! Ngoli
Onyeka Okafor is a Nigerian American male model, actor and
Two-time Golden Gloves boxer and actor. He is of Igbo decent, with both of his parents
being Igbo. The led to years of tragedy as people assumed he was connected
to the OTHER IGBO: the International Gay Bowling Organization. How
awful! I would never want to be associated with people who bowl.
Ngo has been called one of the quickest studies the boxing world
has ever seen. He started boxing at the late age of 31, an age that most boxers
retire, and within 3 years, he won 2 heavyweight Golden Gloves boxing championships.
Search engines proclaim Ngo to be the most downloaded black male model and actor
on the internet and has worked with the likes of supermodel Gisele Bundchen, Little Kim
and Mary J. Blige. He has been featured in Vogue, W, Vibe, Men's Health and The
Wall Street Journal Magazine.
As an actor, he has worked on soap operas,
TV shows and film including "The Rebound" with Catherine Zeta-Jones. Throughout
his career, Ngo has been dedicated to giving back, which can be most recently demonstrated
by his determination to build boxing gyms and develop a strong amateur boxing program
in his home country of Nigeria. |
