You won’t find Shaun Negler’s name in the FightFax database, the official record-keeping service of professional boxing.
There are no tapes of any of his memorable wins or stories of epic triumphs left behind. That’s because they don’t exist. He was robbed of a career in the sport he loved.
But none other than Bernard Hopkins, one of the greatest fighters of this or any generation, will tell you that he hasn’t met a tougher, or more courageous, fighter than Shaun Negler.

As much of a cunt certain people think Hopkins is, dude is a very cool guy. I already like him and this endears him to me even more

That's the best article about Hopkins' relationship with Negler IMO, it's good to see Hopkins' other side.
