Ryan, so you get to go to this fights for free as press right??
What other fights have you seen this close as press??
Also what is your job there tonight? I know you are a writer but what exactly will you be doing. Tweeting? Blogging? Writing articles (specifics)? etcComment

sweet view bro! enjoy the fights. . . NOTHING like some live boxing up close and personal
i didn't know you were ryan songolia! ive been enjoying reading your interviews and articles for a while now. . .
@ other posters - if I had to guess, I'd say there will be about 2800 fans in attendance - i think arena is scheduled to seat like 4000? Also, the main event will start @ 11PM/ET like Ryan said. . . If you are watching on HBO like me, then the feed will start at 10:30 with the HOPKINS/DAWSON replay (uhhgg, i know) RIGHT AFTER Pac/Marquez 24/7 which debuts @ 10 PM/ET!! Why can't they show the Garcia fight instead? Smh. . .Comment

I don't use the term "free" as it pertains to admission to fights because I'm a working member of the media and I attend the fights to work. Fight night is a hectic schedule of compiling interviews, writing stories on a tight deadline and avoiding distractions.Originally posted by Bombs View Post
But yeah I'm at all of the fights in the New York area at ringside, writing for a number of news outlets (like BoxingScene, GMA 7 News in the Philippines, ****** and others), and shoot videos for websites and TV stations.
Tonight, my story will appear on GMANews.TV, which is the leading news outlet in the Philippines.Comment

Right, right. That's what I meant. But you get to work in an environment that you enjoy working on since I imagine boxing is your passion and to get to watch those fights up close has to be a blessing.
That's awesome. So you will be at the Cotto-Margarito one?!?!? I want to be a writer. How do I become one? I think I got some writing skills but do I start writing and send them to news outlets. How do I get hired?
That is awesome. I will look forward to it man. Have fun tonight!Comment
