    Hey all,

    Check out the recent feature on Paul Fleming, shown on Channel 9's, Wide World of Sports. A great piece and it aired a couple of weeks ago co-inciding with his recent USA victory.

    Cheers.

    Very good report, Fox need to be doing stuff like this for each edition of their Friday night fights. Paula personality seemed to come through in those few minutes and came across as a likable character, which having met him I can say is no show.

    Cheers Leon.

    I fully agree with the Fox FNF aspect and to be frank, this was all filmed over a 2-3hr period. Both the in the gym stuff as well as the out on the street aspect.

    You can't tell me Fox don't have enough forewarning to profile one of the boxers from each upcoming show, as well as the fact that the 2-3hr period doesn't break the bank from a show's budget.

    Wondering aloud, it may even be worth some fighters organizing a little independent piece themselves for broadcast.

    I agree 100%,
    If Paul can keep focused he has the talent to be a World champion. I will go one step futher and say he has the talent to be a star on the World scene.
