    He's getting adult charges for allegations he committed when he was young as 11?

    Did I read that right? Charged with sex with a family member?

    Going to be hard for Arum to market that guy...

      yeah that's disturbing stuff.

      even if he does get off and is found not guilty, unless they can keep this quite(too late) his career is going to be ****.


      the thing is, i remember a few years ago i saw him fight here in vegas and he had a great knockout, but i remember there was this whole thing with him and his dad and how they had this tight family unit, this and that, was it a cover up? or what?

      also, i might be mistaken but wasn't his dad a cop? or some ****, i could be wrong, i'm more than likely am, but i could've sworn his dad or somebody in his family was a chicago cop???? that would be embarrassing if someone in his family were............

        I'm disappointed, George has a lot of talent. He was an excellent amateur and good power.

          He could be tried as an adult of something happened and he never reported it. I don't think there is a statute fo limitations on these kind of things. Similiar to how priests are jailed for something they may have done 20 years ago.

          If he gets off, Arum can certainly market the guy. Tyson, Golota, Spadafora, Tapia and many others have criminal records for all sorts of things and they were still marketable even after serving jail time.

            Like Bob said "until proven guity" hold your horses. They had to know that this was going through the system at any rate? Even if the guy is guity; they need to find the **** that abused Don too, because that's how these things work it's a sickness that keeps going. Shocker
