St George

So who’s this St George guy? I don’t wanna come out of retirement for some nobody. Can he put up a fight? I don’t want my punters dissing me if there’s a knockout in the first round.

What’s with the saint thing anyway? That’s just weird, it’ll be like fighting a priest or something, and I ain’t done that since the early days. Man, they is too easy is priests, I hope this saint is a scrapper.

People ask me why I'm getting back in the ring at my age, it’s because I need the wonga. I’ve spent everything I won, I just love my bling too much, it’s spend, spend, spend every time. Look at this necklace, solid gold that is, and this chain, all my rings of course and this sceptre. I didn’t even need a sceptre, I just saw it and thought ‘gotta have’. My entire hoard is all top carrot gold, I won't touch no gold plating, no silver. See this golden fleece - that cost me my entire fee for the Tyson fight. Extravagant.

Am I fit? Ha. Listen to my roar, I still got it. RRRRROOOOOOOAAAAAARRRRRRRR.

That felt great, but it made you shit your pants. It’s true that I don’t have as much fire as I used to, but I’m a better fighter now, wiser, tactical, don’t take on crazy odds any more. Time was I’d take on entire kingdoms, one time I found myself fighting two different armies on the same day. Na, the big prize fight is low risk, high pay, one blow to this St George and I can go on a shopping spree. I’m hoping on a movie deal on the back of it, may never have to work again.

This’ll be my greatest fight, the one they remember me by, the mighty saint George slain by the dragon. Saint silenced in Silene. It’ll be talked about for as long as men and dragons fight.
