    Just Wondering

    Have any of the BS staff or whatever, like BPP, ever boxed or at least trained and sparred? Because if they haven't, it just seems odd that you would become part of a website about a sport you have never particpated in. I remember reading an article on here by some writer on this site saying he was finally going to start training as a boxer to see what it's like, and i was thinking, how would you get into boxing to the point where you write for a boxing site if you havent boxed yourself, just seems odd. Not trying to be a **** btw just curious.

    enzo calazghe has never boxed, but has won ring magazine trainer of the year. angolo dundee never boxed. cus d mato never boxed.

    just because you havent boxed dosent mean you can be invovled in the game.

    as i've just proven.

            Not sure which of the staff have boxing experience, but I've heard that boxingscene writer David Greisman is an expert at *** jitsu.

                not fair to mention promoters lol. they are buisness men. in it for the money not the sport. a journalist or commentator is another thing.

                    Not a big deal. I'm sure plenty of media cats ain't ever been involved in the sports they cover.
