great stuff as usual - just found out about that blog recently and it's already one of my firm favourites!
Just out of interest how do you have so many Scottish boxing contacts? Are you a member of a club and do you train anywhere or are you purely on the reporting side? Do you write for any of the papers? Cheers mate - just interested.
dont think he really bothers who he gets,he is quite adament he will fight anyone. i think he will get the chance to go in with mcgee cos quigley/smith has been put out for purse bids ...so i would imagen that would potentially be his next fight. it would be good fight for him,but i think a nother fight or two a ten rounds would benefit him more
to answer your questions,its purely through hard work.I started out and got registerd with all the pormoters (except sports network) and get all the usual press releases.i also approach them for interviews and most cases i do get them but there are a few who dont do them apart form press confrences. Blv it or not i have never attended a press confrence,and the reason is simply because i have a full time job and cant get the time off . I dont write for any papers but i do offer them the chance but to be hinest there not intrested in them,i dont tran anywhere at the moment ,but it is something imseriously condsidering doing,pureley for excercise. hope ths helps mate
