Burt Watson- Boxing and MMA Legend

Intentionally Overheard w/Robert Ginyard

Thank you for listening. Send us a text message.

Today, I have a conversation with the legendary Burt Watson who is known in the boxing and MMA community.

Burt’s rise in the boxing business started when he became the business manager for his close friend, Smoken’ Joe Frazier.

It didn’t take long for Burt to become recognized for his managerial and organizational skills. He quickly became one of the industry’s most sought-after event coordinators.

He has worked of course, Joe Frazier, Muhammad Ali Larry Holmes, George Foreman, and Ken Norton, Mike Tyson, Oscar De La Hoya, Sugar Ray Leaonard, Roberto Duran, Julio Chavez, Roy Jones, and when I say the list goes on...believe me ….it goes on!

In 2021 Burt joined Bellator MMA- where he inspires and motivates fighters to give their best effort in the ring, cage, and in life.

Burt also makes time to share his energy, enthusiasm, and his story about his prostate cancer journey-a fight he never thought he would have to take on. He’s made it part of his life’s mission to educate men and their families about the disease, so that men won’t have to take on a fight against an opponent they know nothing about.

Burt and I caught up to talk about life, decision making, and life’s purpose.
