    Some of you know my name and know what I'm about.

    In brief, I've taken over as Editor at Undisputed Fight Mag after someone left us in the ****. I've been in charge for 12 days now (it originally launched in Oct of this year) and our numbers (site hits/page views) have increased five times as much as they were initially.

    I'd appreciate your feedback on things like site content, standard of work, the way the site looks, negative - positives etc. The subscription banners will be getting taken down. We are getting the site off the ground to start with and the aim is still to become a digital magazine next year.

    To all that have read our work so far and commented, thank you very much.

    Or if you wanna email me then please do so

    Interviews are generally done over the telephone.

    I like the comp idea though.

    Maybe you could get someone involved in the sport to have a column each week. Kind of like what Boxing News do with George Groves, Jaime Moore and Dave Coldwell.

    That's something I'm actually in the process of sorting out. Just waiting on confirmation.

    That should be good for you maybe you could actually get that done in the Mag itself. Not even the same person every week, but just having someone that's heavily involved in the sport should help.

    God willing the mag will launch next year and we could implement it then. But for the time being it will remain on the site.

    Are you just concentrating on the paid ranks or will you be doing a feature on the amateurs, not just the boxers but the clubs too...:think

    Do you have a women section? Not really my cup of tea to be honest but it will broaden the market for u. Good luck.

    At the moment we have two UK writers on board, three American and and a couple of quality contributors (Steve Wellings and John Evans). So right now concentrating on the paid ranks to get our name out there is the focus.

    The amateur ranks can be given some attention when we have more writers and if and when we develop into a magazine.

    No woman's section but I take your point of views. I wouldn't mind trying to find a writer that specialises in women boxing.
