Just picked it up and not a bad read, was interested to see Jamie Pittmans open letter to Anthony Mundine. Must say I enjoyed the local fight round ups, the guy who did the write up on the card in Perth certainly seems to know his stuff and really should have his own monthly column...

The guy from Perth copied the article from another Magazine/Boxing newspaper i believe.

WELL I HEARD the guy who allegedly copied the article from another magazine was in fact rewriting his own material that had been copied and stolen from a famous boxing website and put in said boxing magazine with no credit given to the original author.
Smartarse. Your dvd prices just doubled.

Some superbly written material from the Perth correspondent. As I was reading it, I could hear the ghosts of old commentators "Hello fight fans..." :good

Will check if the newsagents have a copy at lunchtime.
The ESB contribution to Fist is becoming significant. Perhaps this litterary genius from Perth could do a monthly 'Dear John' (or even Leon?) column where he tackles letters from our resident nut-cases!
When Fist first upgraded to the glossy format my missus looked over my shoulder whilst I was ogling the ring-girl page and asked 'What's that magazine?' To which I answered 'Fist'. She rolled her eyes and walked away thinking porn, more porn!

I'm surprised Leon they didn't let you submit some of those brilliant photos you had taken at the show. That would of really enhanced your reporting!! :lol:

Smartarse. Your dvd prices just doubled.Next time you should just write up two reports, one for the copy cats :yep and a real one.
It would be good to see a Copy Cat version in the Fist :lol:

Would love to see Pittman fight Mundine, if they were both in good nick it would be an awesome fight, I think Pittmans style would make Choc fight on the front foot a bit more and regardless of the result it would be a fan favourite.
Mundine owes it to himself (and all the fans who have made him a millionaire) to fight someone who will challenge him. Unlike some of the warm bodies he has fought of late

Unbeknownst to Ray in the initial report I never mentioned the knockdown in the Yamaguchi-Lerio fight. Strangely enough, that detail wasn't in the World of Boxing report either. Go figure.

Mundine may just find Pittman an awkward opponent - there was certainly speculation as to why Pittman wasn't included in the Contender.
...interestingly, Mundine hasn't fought a southpaw since Bargero in 2001!

Well public opinion regarding Mundines class of opponents lately probably couldn't get much lower and I seriously wouldnt underestimate Jamie in this tussle

How bout the ringcard girl of the month , what a hottie.
Good on the boys at the fist for picking Garth Wood for the fighter of the month , well deserved award.
i dont know about the aussie top 15, I wouldnt rate Daniel geale above Sakio Bika, very close to call but I would have Sakio ahead. Other than that the mag is a credit to australian boxing.

Just took a peak at the latest fist myself today. That girl is smoking. I thought it was Miranda Kerr for a second.

Bika's a gun. But he's only fought 5 rounds in about the last 2 and a half years!
When he's busier he'll probably rate above Geale though.
Let's hope he can land a meaningful fight, and soon!

A well worded letter too IMO.
Hearing Pittman's story certainly makes a mockery of the decision to leave him out of The Contender on the basis he DIDN'T have a story to tell.
Interesting that Pittman is of the opinion, and he's not alone in it, that the Mundine camp influenced selction of The Contender 'cast', including leaving him out.
Reckon Mundine's very reluctant to fight southpaws, particularly ones with any ability (he last fought a southpaw nearly 10 years ago!).

Spoke to Elias today, he may register on eastside boxing. He was rapt that everyone was talking about the ring card girls and he is seriously thinking about getting everyone in the aussie forum on voting for the next girl.
He started to laugh when I asked him who the perth correspondent was, his reply was " a great up and coming writer, who should be writing more."
Eastside boxing is in the house !!!!

Pittman's certainly on the moral high ground. He's just a local looking to give it a red hot go - bit different to the other fella!

Once again I donate my money to the aussie fist magazine and associates :roll: $7.95 well worth the purchase considering the coverage of professional world elite boxers challenging the best of their weight devision.
Green v Siaca promo, Manny v Clottey, Darchinyan v Guerrero, Lenny v Angulo (let's hope Lenny has learnt from his outing over in the states).

Nice pic of Ablett jnr and green, reminds me of a letter I wrote a couple of years ago to Ablett Snr.
It was about an article I read in the world of boxing, Darren Burrows volunteering his boxing knowledge to people in need of direction for a positive outlook and future in life.

FIST continues to be a good way to spend $7.95 boxing dollars.
Must admit I was wrong regarding the price. Said months back - just after it went glossy & new - that the price would rise within 3 or 4 months........It didn't!
Would like to see more from those two exciting new FIST writers Leon & Tony.
