Scott Shaffer, who really is one of the coolest people I've met in boxing, is no longer affiliated with DBE as far as I know.

That's not what I heard...unless something has changed in the past few weeks. Maybe he's just representing Lou DiBella fighters now...like Kermit Cintron (who he just helped in that legal case with Bobby Bostick) and Monte Barrett. Don't get me wrong...it has been a while since I've had my ear on the pulse of what's going on at btalk, so maybe he has ended his association (although again, that's not what I'm hearing). I definitely know that I was told to create the fake alias Hector Linares for Shaffer to use because of his association with DiBella. I'm not really sure of the last time Shaffer may have used that fake alias, but I do know I saw it pop up in regards to Zab Judah:

JUDAH TO HAVE STITCHES REMOVED TOMORROW
By Hector Linares

Michael Shinefield, manager of former undisputed welterweight champion Zab "Super" Judah, has informed Boxingtalk.com that Judah will have the 50 stitches that prevented him from facing Shane Mosley on May 31 removed tomorrow afternoon. "It's a shame we couldn't reschedule the fight with Mosley. All we needed was another two weeks and we would have been good to go. Zab is looking forward to facing the best available as soon as possible," stated Shinefield. When asked about Zab's expected return, Shinefield responded by saying, "Zab will be ready to go as early as the end of June or early July. We're going to see what's out there for him and make the biggest and best fight for him and his fans."

For the record, Scott Shaffer and "cool" should not be in the same sentence. Nice guy...yes...but cool...I don't think so. Not exactly sure of how closely you've had to work with him, but I've known Scott since 2004 and "cool" isn't exactly a word that I'd use to describe him. Maybe "nice", but not "cool". I guess it depends on who you're comparing him to though as there are quite a few "uncool" people in boxing.

Ben, I don't know if you are anyone would be interested but I know a local place that does some cool stuff & I priced baseball jersey's @ $38 I think it was for like 20 of them & the price dropped with the more you bought. The only thing was is they were cotton which is very comfy but don't last like nylon does! I'd be glad to help if I am needed bro! Kinda FYI!

The latest that I've heard from him is that he's with Sauerland Events now. I still feel he is a very cool guy, then again I'm no authority there myself.

You gotta admit the work ethic this dirtbag has.

He even pretends that there is a B. Artest. LMAO.

G. Leon forwarded me your email. Thank you for your interest, but FYI, I'm not Greg. Having him as a mentor is helpful when it comes asking the right questions. I hope this puts your mind as ease. Thank you for reading, keep supporting BoxingTalk. -B.

LOL @ "G. Leon forwarded me your email."

If he forwarded the email to B. Artest, then how come you still don't see any email address at the end of those interviews to send questions and comments to?

Send questions and comments to: ????????

You would have thought that he would have come up with a fake Hotmail address by now.

Does he though?

You can knock it if you know how much dough that really is.

And LOL at another NY IP and registering with his email address.
