    Ive been very lightly toying with the idea of beginning a channel as one, weekly of bi weekly along the same lines as the islander, if anyone knows his channel.

    My questions are what do people like us on sites like this want to see, what is there a gap for and do you think its a good idea or waste of time. Is there enough already or would you welcome another one.


    I am quiet young so I realise I may not be taken seriously but I do feel if what I had to say was listened to many one see how serious about the sport I am and anyone who has seen some of my previous posts when i approched the topic seriously will hopefully know this already.


    So please tell me if this would be a complete waste of time or if I should go for it and what you would like to see on it.


    Any comments welcome :good

    Gambeino keeps it real and adds comedy to his videos. Always a hit with the masses.

    Go for it man. From what I've seen the youtube boxing world can use more guys who talk about all fights not just floyd and Pac. Personally the guys I watch most on youtube is bloodboxing, divinesense, bigragu, 78fightnews, and Gambieno.

    The only one I like is ukwingchunstudent, probably cause he's a bit more entertaining than the other guys.

    Nothing, really. They're no different to posters on forums.

    Thanks so far guys appreciate the support. Keep the opinions coming.


    True except they dont get the anonymity we posters have they really put themselves out there and back up there opinions.

    Number 1 rule for me is this.

    Don't be biased for or against any fighter, keep it impartial.

    Gonna be honest bro I don't really listen to or watch them

    Gamebino is an exception and I think I'm subscribed but I hardly ever watch his vids

    As Uncle Rico said I don't treat them any different to posters on here, only difference is it takes me 2 or 3 seconds to see if I want to read a post whereas I have to sit through 10mins of a video to know if the guy DKSAB or not

    I watch quite a few of them, being knowledgeable and unbiased is very important. Being funny is just a bonus but it's not really important.

    I get the feeling with a few of them though that they think they know more than other people because they make videos. One in particular has been getting a bit above his station recently.

    Thanks slot guys like I said it's only been an idea so far. This isn't an excuse to show that I think I'm smarter then people, I love boxing I love discussing it and for me it is just another medium to discuss the sport where hopefully people will want to listen to my views in a mature way

    I think I am unbiased, well compared to a lot of ESB, yes there are fighters I cant stand either for moral personal reasons or just there style is not enjoyable to watch but at the end of the day people don't want to hear someone sing the praises of someone just because they are a boxer. I would plan to be objective but critical when needed.

    Good luck.
