Julian Wheeler (born April 22, 1971) is an American former professional boxer who competed from 1993 to 2002. He is the former WBC Continental Americas super featherweight and USBA lightweight champion.
Wheeler turned pro in 1993 and had some good success.
After winning his first 11 bouts, he lost to Mexican American Robert Garcia for the NABF Super Featherweight title in 1995. [1]
His career went downhill shortly thereafter and he suffered defeats to Juan Manuel Márquez, Jorge Páez (twice), and Juan Lazcano.
In December 1998, Wheeler beat an undefeated Victor McKinnis to win the IBC Light Welterweight title. [2]
He retired in 2002 after losing a close decision to Leavander Johnson in an IBF Lightweight Title Eliminator.
