Professional Boxer
Mr. G always knew he was going to be a boxer. Fighting was his life. Even as a kid his right cross was awesome. His folks wanted him to be a mechanic, like his father and brothers, but he never changed his mind.
It was tough growing up as the only black guy in his neighborhood who wanted to put on silk shorts and prance around for a living! He made sure that those who mocked him dropped where they stood. When he started as a professional it felt better than good. He proved he could win, and win big.
Mr. G. had one problem - his manager. He was stitched into a contract so tight he could hardly breathe, let alone make a buck! Mr. G. wanted to show the fat leech who was really in charge, so he threw a Las Vegas title fight and lost - for the first time ever. His manager went ape! Later that night, in a bar, some heavies picked a fight with Mr. G. Nobody could see what it was about, but Mr. G. seemed surprised - especially when he wound up dead. Did the Leech get the last laugh?
