Although it's not got anything to do with your point which I agree with, I'm once again pissed off at another Thomas Hauser article produced by Bob Arum. How did such a talented writer basically become his mouthpiece. He puts forward at least one argument that is factually incorrect there regarding PBF's 'women beating' which was disproved by Killersheep on here a few months back. You can search both Michigan & Nevada state court records and quickly discover that PBF has no conviction for domestic abuse or battery of a female, as he was cleared in all of those cases. I don't know whether he did it or not, although given family backgrounds and the propensity for boxers to be violent against women, I wouldn't be surprised, but the fact is a proper journalist should not be printing stuff that is factually untrue. If more boxers actually acted on it, they could stop boxing journalism (once considered the best in sports writing) from being a running joke.
Anyway that's besides the point, just as someone who's a qualified journalist, it's truly embarassing how poor most boxing journalism is. I mean you expect this stuff from boxingscene, but Hauser? The guy is a phenomenal writer. Anyway that's my rant over
