I can handle reading a book by a teenager. Bret Easton Ellis's - Less Than Zero is rather good. But the Bible-basher stuff is a put-off.
Advertising you're the assistant editor of

Hope you're not responsible for all those moronic "so-and-so
DISSES so-and-so" titles?
Who are you talking about...what titles and disses....did I miss post on this thread ???
Doghouse has all those news release thingys titled - "Hatton disses Oscar" "Toney disses Jones" etc etc etc.. I think they're embarrassing.
Why, you don't do that S*** here do ya, Daxx? :-\
Where on their front page?...have you ever seen our front page with such things?......there is your answer....
I was more or less refering to this part of the post

and who you were speaking of... ???
For fucks sake, Daxx. Engage brain.
Of course those moronic titles are not on this site.
The kid that wrote the book, that started this thread is the assistant editor at doghouse. I am saying that is NOTHING to boast about considering the SHITE that gets put on that site.
Get it? :-\
That 17yr old kid is the asst editor of doghouse?.....WTF.....Well that explains everything :-\....shows what i think of their site.....them and ESB I won't be caught even having in my browser history
lol it carries the same kind of embarrasment factor as someone finding traces of shemale and granny porn in your browser history right ;D
Pretty much...then to find out the kid is 17?......is he even old enough to travel and cover fights?.....hell he is not old enough to get into some of the press conferences that are held in casino's and pubs
Re: New Boxing Book - A Great Read
I'll say this and this alone:
If you don't think Doghouse is a great boxing site, then you don't know boxing journalism. DHB is one of the top websites out there, period. How many websites can say they have writers that publish works in "The Ring" and "Boxing Digest"? How many websites can say they have interviewed guys like Felix Trinidad, Floyd Mayweather, Oscar De La Hoya? How many sites can compare their site design to that of Doghouse?
And the Fighters-of-faith.com site is nothing to be joked about. What's wrong with a group of people in the boxing world trying to do something positive with their sport?
Also: FYI, I am now eighteen, and I've already covered 10 fights ringside. In fact, I'll be ringside for Mayweather-Hatton, happily covering the fight for Doghouse.
Listen, I wrote the book because I hoped it could help out a sport that has helped countless people. I tried to illuminate on the positive aspects of boxing with hopes that readers would see the sport in a more positive light. I do want to revive boxing through media, and I believe this book is an excellent medium to do so.

You just described any website with credebility

Good luck with the book Dan, like I said as soon as it appears on Amazon I will be happy to pick up a copy. Have fun at Hatton Mayweather, you jammy bastad I'd love to be ringside for that.
Don't take the criticisms too harshly, there has always been a bit of needle between the various boxing forums, like school rivalries I guess.

Fair enough.
I guess if your hero is the Jesus fella you're gonna be a fan of "saving."
I wouldn't consider it "great journalism" taking a throwaway quote and making three billion "news" stories per day about "so-and-so DISSES so-and-so."...then again...maybe it is... :-\
