Sherdog's Shawn Hawk v ............

actjac said:
Shawn. How about a televised fight with BJ Flores for a title and some money?

That was the idea, but he didn't seem to want to fight me. He didn't have an opponent until weeks before his last fight, so my people were trying to get me in.

He refused.

If he agreed to it you would then take a fight against BJ Flores for the NABO title later this summer?

Who are "your people"? Is Sycuan still your contracted promoter?

Is your fight scheduled versus Eric Fields solid? Is it an eight rounder?

Yeah, I'm sure we could work something out if he was interested.

Sycuan still promotes me, yeah. They said they talked to BJ's management and they said no, I doubt they ever actually talked to BJ himself. It's entirely possible they had just never heard of me and didn't want BJ in there with someone they perceived as an unknown or a bum, or they had already made their minds up about who they wanted to fight.

As for the Fields fight, there's a bit of squabbling now, but it's probably going to happen still and it will be an eight rounder, although I have no idea if it's still going to be in Canada.

Do you know BJ or work for his promoter or something?

Although I am neutral in this I do know his promoter (Square Ring) and I also know BJ. He does know you. It is possible that the communication didn't go all of the way through last time.
 
I think it'd be a pretty logical step in the right direction for my career and his, so yeah, if he would be interested I'm sure some sort of arrangement could be reached.

I don't know exactly what my promoter's up to, only what they tell me, so it's possible they got there too late or just talked to the wrong people.

Well, it'd go through my promoter first, then they'd ask me about it, and it'd get talked over with my coaches and whatnot, if everyone was in agreement it'd go through.

Okay then. It would/could be a good fight for you however he is a good boxer with a good jab. But he doesn't like to be crowded.
 
Good luck and is this gonna be on tv because I'll watch.

I don't know, there are some issues jeopardizing the entire card right now, so I have no idea what's going to happen at this point.

Apparently Nova Scotia is dragging it's feet with regulations and whatnot, so the card could be rescheduled/moved.
 
The show promoter is working hard to get it done, he's already sank a lot of money into this thing, it'd be the biggest event in Nova Scotia for a long time.

Problem is they don't really have much boxing there, and it's a US company putting on the show, so there are some tangles in some regulations, I think.
 
Well keep us updated. Good luck.
 
You'll remember the Name Shawn Hawk from here on and so on. Watch and see!
 
Tough opponent, good luck!

Do you have the fight in Canada set? If not what other fights are out there in the near future for you?
 
Boxrec isn't showing that as a fight scheduled anymore.

They just called me today and said it was canceled.

Guess they couldn't untangle the regulations. The promoter said they'd try to move it somewhere else, but it'd be pretty short notice now.
