I dont know any thing about this guy but training in his garage doesnt seem like the best place to learn your craft

Francois Botha??? Did you see him walking about with Franco Pianeta a few months ago? If I was Chris Arreola or Dereck Chisora I’d be a bit miffed about being bundled in with Botha and Rahman.

Mark de Mori…, “Some good offers have been coming my way and I keep forwarding them to Don King Promotions.” … RIGHT…and they keep ignoring them because nobody is tending the store … So you end up spending 2 years on the beach.

Mark.., “I sent you an email 2 weeks ago about the Boytsov fight? They’re offering 25,000.. Why didn’t we jump all over that? … And what happend to that other offer?”

Don King associate.., “Boytsov? Oh yeah I tried to reach them…I’ll try to get back to you next Tuesday on that Mark.. Gotta run.. Have a good day Mark … OK?”

Better to manage your own career than be put on the shelf by lazy managers.

Good luck to him, seems a very likable guy. Definitely warrants a test against a worthwhile ‘name’, but have thought that for years now…

Deontay Wilder is my heavyweight contender. Will have to look into this de Mori fellow’s previous fights.

Off topic but how come esb is not reporting that Wach will get a 1 year suspention for roids in the k-bro. fight??? The only decent thing you could say about Wach is that he stood up to those punches,now even that means nothing from that sub-par club fighter.

The Wilder v Demori needs to happen for both camps. Fans are sick of both being undermatched and both fighters want this to happen. Would answer questions for both camps and be one of the more exciting HW fights going around. There are a lot of ‘prospects’ all around that 20-30 fight mark with shiny records that promoters need to bite the bullet with and let these guys of their leashes.

de mori has/had potensial and no doubt natural talent. Impressive that he has trained himself mostly.
But signing with don king is a very bad move.
I remember Vitali Klitschko said once about don king: Do you know why he has that hairstyle? Its to hide his horns

Endorse what Wingman (@Edwardwing) said. Get away from King at the earliest opportunity. End of story.

You’re a natural professional athlete. Get in that ring and smash their shoulders to pieces.

demori is a joke. he fights novices and old, broken fighters. hes a fraud. he doesnt even deserve to be interviewed. what? is this an extremely slow news day? or am i in a parralell universe where mediocrity is admired?

While Mark de Mori may be a real nice person, and he may really believe he can succeed, i doubt it very much, the last three opponents he has faced were 41,40 and 43 years old, it seems to me, a long time boxing fan, that his opposition is getting weaker instead of better. This might boost his KO percentage, but it will never make him a better fighter. I still wish him good luck, but maybe he should take a long, hard look at his advisors.

The best thing you can do is get away from Don King before he ruins your career, Look what he did to Mike Tyson, The K brothers do not have a nice word to say about the man. he is poison, Good Luck with your career hope to see you active in 2013
