He had very little if any amateur experience. He seemed to be heavy handed, but also slow handed. He's got good size and everything, but he's going to have to take things pretty slow IMO just due to his lack of experience. He seems to fight a bit like his father which concerns me because 'Big' George was a beast and sons of famous fighters that adopt their father's style of fighting can run into trouble....Marvis Frazier for example was a slick boxer, but Smokin' Joe wanted him to be a pressure fighter like he was and he just didn't have the skill set to do that.
Marvis didn't have the chin or size for it either. Also it was unfortunate for him that he was in Mike Tyson's era and ended up getting brutalized by the man. Probably made a good payday though.

I hope George's son does well and doesn't get hurt, but I don't see him being champ or a contender, but who knows. I think I've seen him fight once on TV, as others have said he doesn't seem to be in a hurry to face anyone serious.
