A southpaw slugger from South Philly, heavyweight Randy Mack had an on-again/off-again career between 1975 to 1985. Periods of inactvity limited him to only 26 professional bouts in an eleven year period.

After winning his first pro contest, he lost his next three, and after dropping an eight round decision to Marty Monroe in September 1976, he left boxing.

He returned eighteen months later and ran off a string of fourteen fights without a loss which included two draws with Marvin Stinson, a TKO over Jody Ballard, and a ten round majority decision over tricky Leroy Caldwell. His streak was snapped in a return match with Caldwell which Mack lost via a ten round decision at the end of 1980.

During the next two years he only fought five times winning three and losing two. His wins were against three stiffs. Both Lynn Ball and James Broad stopped him for the two losses.

Following his loss to Broad in Spetember 1982, Randy retired once again, but he came back two years at age thirty for two fights against bottom feeders, both of which were losses. Mack then retired for good with a record of 16-8-2.
