      That's the way I see it. Bert Sugar is old school through and through. If you like hearing about the history of the sport, Sugar could keep you entertained all night. I love the dude's passion for it and that he enjoys talking about it so much.

        To address the issue of professionalism, it truth, its meant as more of a satirical site. And I enjoy taking poetic license to write about someone in vulgar terms if it feels appropriate. With regard to Sugar, the guy's annoyed me for some time and that clip sent me over the edge and it was time to unload on him.

            I get that, but he just feels like he's been on autopilot for some time now.

            Btw, thats a cool graphic of Manny/Floyd in Punchout.

                    That was weak. It came off as nothing more than a hate driven rant. With claims like "this a$%hole is obselete and nothing more than a gimmick," supported by evidence like.. "this rube wears an old hat and he doesn't like the HW division." The only problem is.. his look is timeless, he's got tons of character and he's intelligent. Also, at the end of the day there are very few people who actually like the HW division right now(so he's not alone in that thinking). I didn't read any of your other work but if it's anything like this then you're a noob and need to start over.. Interesting idea for a website though, Good Luck!

                      I have to admit I like the idea of writing about boxing with color and in such a conversational manner. Unfortunately, I found all of your talking points to be completely baseless.
