Don't call us nattering nabobs of negativism. There's plenty of good news out there – for just one example, there's Thomas Gerbasi's feature on Kevin Cunningham, trainer to Devon Alexander, on BoxingScene.com.
But blog posts are better made when they're not just roundups, but when there's an overriding theme. And so there's these:
Thomas Hauser of SecondsOut.com has the behind-the-scenes stuff on how the flagship boxing network, HBO, lost the top boxing star, Manny Pacquiao, to Showtime.
John Whisler of the San Antonio Express-News has the story of drama involving a South Texas amateur boxing organization.
Tom Archdeacon of the Dayton Daily News looks into the dangers of Toughman contests, which returned to his city last week.
And Lance Pugmire of the Los Angeles Times says the newly launched World Series of Boxing is already in major financial trouble.
No need to pile on with the poor ticket sales for this Saturday's fight between Timothy Bradley and Devon Alexander...
