Best up and coming writers

Springs Toledo, who already posts on ESB as S89.

 

Percy Crawford - Fighthype --- too much of a Floyd fan
Chris Robinson - Examiner --- more substance please
Gabriel Montoya - Max Boxing --- filling Doug's shoes quite nicely, and this is genuinely meant as a compliment
Ryan Songalia - Boxing Scene --- too little articles lately
Dennis Guillermo - Examiner --- too much Pacquiao
Mario Ortega - 15 Rounds
Joseph "The Mad Boxing Genius" Torres - Doghouse Boxing
Ryan Maquinana - Max Boxing
Vivek Wallace - East Side Boxing --- I'm sorry, but I get the sense he's too partial for black fighters
Other --- yes, Springs Toledo is one of the best but...his articles come too few and far between!

 

Prefer quality over quantity, k

 

I dont read any of these guys regularly.

Terry Dooley is the most interesting of the younger writers he's at a dog of a site, ***********, but is a very talented wordsmith.

 

I went for Vivek Wallace; i genuinley find him insightful and articulate in everything he says, apart from when he is talking about floyd / pac. then he decends to troll levels of floyd nut hugging.

 

Me too. And his articles are work of arts mostly. Even when I don´t agree with them all the time.

 

I like Tim Starks from the queensberry-rules boxing blog, but I guess he's not really an up and coming writer... I went with Gabe Montoya, the others I'm not too familiar with

 

John Garfield spanks them all but I don't think he writes anymore

 

Crawford might actually be NALLEGE.

 

somehow agree with these observations. i voted for montoya.

 

There is no heir apparent to Thomas Hauser.He blows everyone away.

 

Agreed. Hauser is the man as far as Boxing journalism goes, proper old-school digging and follow through.
