    Either a journalist or a matchmaker. I'd like to think I'd make the best fight the best...

    I'd like to either:

    be a journalist on international assignment
    or
    the head of an internationally ratified sanctioning body, like FIFA for boxing

    The Buboy Fernandez approach.

    Yep, and look where it got him.

    BB, I love the hype you get in the corner, I am more nervous working a corner than I am for fighting. Love the buzz you get, especially warming the guys up, getting everything ready.

    Ring card girls are fairly modern.

    Keith 'Ian' Keith

    or just Keith?

    A good journeyman type, good enough to be invited to spar with the big fighters for the big fights. Or a cleaner at the wildcard or somewhere.

    Call me a geek, but i'd love to be a sports journalist, like say for a magazine, you'd get to go to all the fights, see them ringside, and write about them. You get pricks doing this job though who have an agenda and bias, i'd be the sprts journalism games long awaited answer, haha.

    Why not?

    Plenty of posts on both the British and Classic forums are comparable if not superior to articles that are published both on here and on other sites.

    It's a real shame that britishboxing.net disappeared, the articles on there were excellent, a good way to pick up knowledge for a relative newbie like me.

    Ring girl fluffer :)




    No seriously.
    A trusted Journo would be great. I remember seeing photos of Hauser sat respectfully on the floor while the fighter held court in the dressing room. Can't remember which fighter it was. Maybe it's a famous photo. Should be.
