      whats wrong with him? i mean promoters are all bastards as a rule, but shaw seems decent
      All promoters are bastards you're most likely right, it's just that Shaw shows it. You don't see none of the other promoters like Dan Goosen or Bob Arum publicly making an ass of themselves. He also doesn't really build fighters right, Lacy and Angulo for example.

      He doesn't really give boxers the right advice (Chad Dawson). Yeah he's powerful but he doesn't have power over the ABC sanctioning bodes. Shaw needs to do a better job sticking up to his fighters because he is obviously two-face.

        As much as I can't stand Arum, Gary Shaw is a poor man's version of the Knob bobber. This guy lost all credibility with that smug comment that he made at the end of the Darchinyan-Arce fight in regards to having Vic fight Nonito. Another thing too, we wouldn't be getting a Glen Johnson-Chad Dawson rematch if the matchmakers at HBO didn't lay the hammer down with him and Chad. They were wanting to weasle out of the fight but HBO told them to f#ck off with their bull****. They eliminated all of Chad's other options and rightfully so.

          Gary has a lot of fine talent under his promotional umbrella. You would think his fighters would be in the perfect position, but they are not.

          No other promoters like to work with him. None of his fighters have become stars. The reason is he cannot get them the fights they need once they reach another level.

          Arum can be difficult, but at the end of the day he is willing to work out deals fair and square. Arum and Golden Boy have made some sweet deals lately, and as a result it has enabled some fighters to become huge stars.

          Gary is good with getting a fighter a good shot at getting on TV, but I bet a lot of them once they reach a certain stage, they want to leave him as he seems to hold them back from getting big fights.

          Myself, I still wonder on why some fighters sign with Don King. Now he is bad x 100.

            He's already hindering Andre Dirrell's career.
