    Not posted anything for a while and on YouTube or twitter.

    Does he own Boxing Social or work for them?

    I think he alluded to an health issue a while back?!

    He definitely was unhappy with his boxing media colleagues throughout the last 2 years. Especially that horny slag MJP. He had a few twitter meltdowns regarding her.

    He doesn't appear to be a founder, but is still listed as Managing Director.

    As a few have already said, he's no longer a director as per Companies House, and has gone off the radar completely on social media. If as it seems he's moved on, I wish the guy well. He's helped build Boxing Social into a very credible journalistic outlet.

    I agree @BXNG101, he was definitely unwise in going public with spats. No matter how cathartic, a history of publicly attacking former employers ain't going to help him out.

    I wish him well and hope he returns to conducting interviews at some point. At times he's felt like the only person willing to put some time and thought into the process of conducting an interview.

    The Boxing Social podcast, when they had the full panel of Rob Tebutt, Andy Clarke, Ade Oladipo and Barry Jones on, was a decent listen.

    Between them all there was a good depth of knowledge and insight. It's a shame because I personally find Boxing podcasts of quality are few and far between.

    If this is long-lasting then it's a shame. The full length podcasts with the likes of Shane McGuigan were a great listen.
