2008 was a great year for boxing. Whether you’re a purist who enjoys slick technicians or a bloodthirsty observer who enjoys horrific brawls, there was an abundance of everything.

So the goon patrol has gone digital, huh? Taking a cue from MC Bin Ladin they have dialed up the world wide web and taken responsibility for every crime that has occurred in the last fifty years. I’m sure sooner or later some dude holding a .22 and wearing a full face stocking cap in […]
