    Shaun George Gives his Take on Boxing (Video!)

    Excellent interview with a New York City tv station. In the interview he discusses the light-heavyweight division, the way boxing is run, becoming a father, Shane Mosley, Joe Calzaghe and more. It's really worth a watch.

    He's a likable guy, I'm not sure how good of a fighter he really is for beating a washed up Chris Byrd.

      He's hungry for the opportunity to show how good he is, he just can't get them in the ring. Guys like Glen Johnson, Chad Dawson, Yusaf Mack would all show the world what he is about. His last opponent Jaffa Ballogou lasted only 86 seconds with him, showing that he is more than ready for the next level.

        bhop would mop the floor with Shaun George right now, so him ****ting on Calzaghes wins is crap. Hell, roy might be able to beat the piss out of george right now.

        Buzz your his promoter, so get him roy jones jr. I bet he isn't even ready for that version of roy. I love how boxers talk **** about each other, but George still hasn't beaten anyone great or good yet.

          Whenever someone says this and that would beat George, I say let them go for it. Neither Jones nor Hopkins would fight Shaun because he's too big of a risk for the pay. Jones is calling out super-middleweights, he doesn't want light-heavyweights.

          Not even Glen Johnson would fight Shaun and he's supposed to be the most feared man in the division.

          I'm not his promoter, I just work for his team. I respect Hopkins and Jones but the reality is, they wouldn't fight George.

Can't even get him some better names on his resume, or is the truth he isn't ready for someone like hopkins, and Dawson. I think that is the truth since George has only had 20 professional fights so far
            George is promoted by Dibella Entertainment, the same promoter who controls Jermain Taylor and Paulie Malignaggi. Lou Dibella is one of the highest-regarded promoters in the country.

            George isn't "talking smack", he's simply asking for his opportunity to fight someone of note at light-heavyweight. Truth is that most people picked Chris Byrd to knock George out, and then when George knocked him out, then all of these excuses popped up.
