John David Chapman, better known as J D Chapman (born March 17, 1983), is a US-American heavyweight boxer.Chapman is a heavyweight boxer. Chapman never fought as an amateur and started in toughman competitions before he turned pro in 2002 under the name "The Natural". Chapman hails from Arkansas, "The Natural State".He was trained at first by Michael Moorer then by Jeff Mayweather and now by Norman Wilson; his manager is the very powerful Scott Hirsch who recently netted his fighters Jameel McCline and Shannon Briggs Don King-arranged title fights. Hirsch seems determined to keep Chapman out of harm's way and move him along slowly.Chapman's opposition has been less than imposing so far; he is 28-0 but never faced a contender.None of Chapman's first fifteen opponents had a positive record, but his last twelve opponents at least all had winning records.His most notable opponents so far are Chicago-based Edward Gutierrez who was 15-0-1 coming into the bout, New York veteran John Carlo who possessed a 14-1 record, and fellow undefeated Mid-West prospect Matt Hicks 7-0. He has captured several regional heavyweight titles including the IBF Southern Regional title, the North American Boxing Council title, the WBC Latino title and the Arkansas State title.
