Interviews - The Fight Nerd talks with George Sheppard, who is fighting next Saturday evening at Bally's Casino in Atlantic City, NJ, for his final step in the M-1 Global Selection Americas event and possibly his ticket to the first M-1 Challenge Event in December. Sheppard will be taking on "The People's Champ" Jose Figueroa, and talks fight strategy with me, as well as if he prefers to fight in a ring or cage, growing up in Virginia, and how MMA and wrestling especially has changed his life for the better.
