    I just picked up THE FIST magazine and it looks bloody sensational. The boys have really picked up the standard !

    Its all colour now and there is even a couple of glamours inside of it. and a good read from a Skinny Hussein story.

    I thinkl this is what Aussie boxing really needs, a good shot in the arm and it seems to be focusing on the Aussie boxing, the UK an NZ parts have disappeared it seems!

    Well done , keep up the good work

    As a long term buyer of FIST I'll be interested in getting hold of this months ed. - sounds like they've made some improvements, but if it's crap I'll soon say so!

    Are you trying to be funny Leon because I definitely cannot take that comment as serious.

    There's always the next one, besides I just got back from my local bookshop and purchased a book for Leon to thank him for the Darchinyan fight he sent me a little while back :good

    Yes, picked up a copy today also.. at a newsagency run by Australian Asians in the Melbourne suburb of Ashburton.

    Having looked through the 'racks' for the mag, I felt a little odd having to ask a young Asian gal to uncover a magazine called "The Fist", with a semi-naked Anthony Mundine on the cover.

    Thankfully Mundine wasn't on the cover of 'The Ring'.

    Have usually found Ray Weatley's 'World of Boxing' magazine at least the equal of FIST. There's nothing glossy about it, and the pictures can be poor quality, but the articles tend to be good, and there seem to be more of them than offered by FIST.

    Will grab the new FIST today and have a squiz.
