    Then were fine, then no one should be bothered by that here. GBP likes boxingscene!

      what was the reason why boxingscene stopped doing round by round coverage? BS had round by round coverage over a year back or so.

        They actually said that?

          what was the point when half a dozen people were doing them in the forums.

              What happened to Ishe's article/threads.

                Yeah, the site I wrote for told me to.

                I understand they don't want to step on toes, but the only thing about the entire event was the crowd. Not to mention it was PPV. The editor really wouldn't let me write anything negative unless it was something very minimal.

                    #1. The blacklisted site has not done "several hate pieces on Keenan." The fact that the site's credentials were threatened if they did round by round of BHop v RJJ was simply being discussed on the forum. No "hate pieces on Keenan" were published by the site to my knowledge.

                    #2. Very interesting that this "site is pretty close with Keenan and Golden Boy" and you no longer do round by rounds.

                    #3. If this Keenan punk can blacklist independent forums at his descretion, what is there to stop him from demanding that this site ban all negative threads about his punkness and GBP?

                    You should take your own advice.

                    Convenient rationalization.

                      Who did you hear that from? There's never been any "hate pieces" on Ed Keenan over there. If that was the case, wouldn't there be some evidence of these "hate pieces"...maybe some links to articles...or perhaps some search results on appearing on Google? There hasn't been anything talking about Ed Keenan at all on that site, so that just doesn't make any sense. I don't know...I might be wrong...but if I am, I'd love to see some of these "hate pieces" to find out more about this Ed Kennan character. LOL.
