‘The Travelling Man’

This weekend sees my first feature, ‘The Travelling Man’, for Boxing News go into print in the UK, where it will go out to tens of thousands of readers.

The article is about the life of heavyweight gatekeeper Kevin Johnson and his recent against-the-odds victory in Magdeburg, Germany, over former IBF cruiserweight champion Yoan Pablo Hernandez. To write it, I interviewed Johnson extensively, read his book, watched his old fights, and went to Magdeburg where, ringside, I reported from there not only for the Boxing News, but for NY Fights in the US.

I’m really proud of the piece and am looking forward to doing more for the Boxing News guys in the future!
