Area of Expertise
Interviewing; features writing; ringside reporting
Interests
First fight attended – Ricky Hatton-Juan Lazcano, May 2008
Career Background
Years on boxing beat – 16.
Reason for doing what you do – Because boxing, for all of its many flaws, is never dull, because it has the richest history of any sport, because so many of its leading figures are so accessible, and because at its very best it's unlike almost anything else. In the moments before the biggest fights, if I'm privileged enough to be ringside, I'm very aware that there's nowhere else in the world I'd rather be. Very little else delivers the nature of experience that's anywhere near as intoxicating.
