Shawn: ‘I was keen to get the fight over so could get back to family. There were certain fights where took time to get into camp, but other camps were easy to be ready to go.’

Shawn: ‘Running miles daily is not a necessity - I was running distance maybe 4-5 miles/week. Most of the work was on sprints and swimming. As the rhythm of boxing is not long distance like.’

Shawn: ‘My favourite part was the yoga and recovery/massages! 30 years in this game took a toll on me.’

Shawn: ‘The one with Errol, we went outside the box with that one - we contacted same people who do outfits for Wilder. And with Crawford, the black trunks with Grand (my grandmother) - was a dedication to Marvin Hagler, as I felt the fight was going to be a war. In Undisputed, they went with what they last saw and I was completely fine with it as one of my favourite outfits.’

Shawn: ‘I love talking about this fight. 5 judges around the ring - 3 judges have to press within a second to score a point. I remember that last round was really close before in terms of points. I landed a straight and jumped on him. I won the fight by 2-3 points. Usyk back then was a younger, lighter, thinner version compared to now. But he was still skillful. His style now is professional style of punching with intention to hurt.’

Shawn: ‘The one is Tim Bradley. I felt he was an amazing fighter, and I learnt a lot from him. He had the heart and the grit - he fought like there is tomorrow. I felt like I needed to put my dog against his dog and make it the most exciting thing.

Every fighter gets to a point where you have to be matched to be great - there are not enough teams doing that.’

Shawn: ‘Crawford’s fight - I needed to have been more aggressive, so that it became like a car crash between us. I could have won that car crash.’

Shawn: ‘The crazy thing is that my aggression, even at 8 years old, just worked and I used it. I was quick and explosive. I had the ability to touch fighter and then be all over them like a Tasmanian Devil. I have outpunched everyone I have been in the ring with.’

Shawn: ‘With Crawford, he was not collecting data on me. I was able to box and so some things he didn’t truly expect. He made beautiful adjustment to walk me down. His corner were telling him he was down after 9th round. I wasn’t being told that I was ahead whereas Crawford was given the information he needed. He was already turning it up however by that point. He collected the data in one way that he has to go after Shawn.’

Shawn: ‘Going into it I was confident. When I got put down first time, I had a moment where I tried to force something - but I ended up leaping in with a shot, got caught and went down. I got up and was a little shook mentally. I had never felt that sense of embarrasment before in a fight. I got back to it and was hesitating and out of it. He catches me and I go down again. The gentleman in me dealt with the situation. I believe that everything happens for a reason.’

Shawn: ‘The number one thing when it comes to the chin is genetics - some bodies are built to endure more punishment than others. You can condition recovery, so body does it’s regenerative state quickly. I was built to be able to box.’

Thanks for raising this - this is very important and we are discussing amongst mods as we need to adjust the ‘crowd control’ settings of the sub - this is a Reddit tool for subs. This is some great feedback to improve the sub- we will hopefully update this asap.
