Charles Lamont Shufford, Jr. (born February 3, 1973) is a retired American professional boxer. He had 35 amateur fights at superheavyweight (no exact record given) and in 1996 beat Lance Whitaker, but lost to Joe Mesi and Lovy Page. As a pro Shufford's biggest victory was a win over once-beaten amateur star and future WBO champ Lamon Brewster in 2000 via unanimous decision. He also beat Jimmy Thunder.
His most notable fight was a devastating 6th-round knockout loss to WBO champ Wladimir Klitschko in 2001. He also is known for losses to Lawrence Clay Bey, and contenders Jameel McCline and Samuel Peter. He went 0–2–1 in his last three fights with the draw coming to Kelvin Davis, and the losses to Malik Scott and Jason Estrada.
Perhaps Shufford's most notable accomplishment has been outside of the ring, playing the role of George Foreman in the 2001 film Ali.
