        I am going to publish it myself right now... a lot involved but it is a very REAL book and if I was to have someone take over they would edit it quite a bit and they would surely delete a lot of things that I think boxing fans deserve to read about in the manner that I write about them, you know? I want to keep it as "real" as possible

          I just wondered because in Britain it would be impossible to do that thing alone because of the defamation laws but I was forgetting that they are very different in America. Are you going to be selling it through your website or something?

            I will sell it on my website. by word of mouth, etc. The thing is. boxing is a small world. EVERY boxing fan in the world knows there are a few places to look for the latest news, etc., so I think with certain connections in the media, and through you guys the word will get out

              The diary concept in particular is very interesting and perhaps even unique in cataloged sports writing these days. I'm sure it will generate alot of interest and I hope it's a profitable venture for you.

                  Thank you, my man. I like to think it is unique, never been done before. The thing I myself like about it a lot, for example, is that you can take the Tarver-Jones fights for example. I give pre-fight predictions...then give thoughts on the fights as they unfolded...then go deep into a post fight analogy, etc.

                  Then for the guys I trained and their fights...I go into analyzing their training and strategies for upcoming fights, what we thought in the corners, what we saw, looked for, the outcomes, why we won, why we lost etc. etc. I hope you like it (if u buy it)

                    Yeah I will certainly buy it. When do you expect to have copies for sale?

                      Well, like I say, the book was basically finished yesterday. Now I need to edit it, choose photos, make a deal with the printer and then print it. I will definitely post something when the time comes. Thanks for the interest, my man
