Fight Reports for records.

WHO do I email Fight Reports for records to?

Thanks in advance.

[ABC BOXING]

I've sent some...

how long does it usually take to get such information added to fighters records encyclopaedia's?

[jimglen]

bump,

I've got loads to contribute.

how long does it normally take?

[claudevsq]

Depends on the country, but if you have more, just let come. Everything will be inserted what is official fight card reports, etc. Shouldn't take very long... Maybe a week...

[jimglen]

well that's nearly a week and nothing, it is also the 3rd time in the past year or so I have supplied reports from Boxing News and the top Boxing Papers and they don't get added, yet others are.

is there another contact email?

[claudevsq]

[email protected] We normally don't add single fights from a few years ago, let's say, to a fighter's record, unless we are provided with an official report from the supervising commission. Video of the fight is also not bad, in most cases, when there is no report.

Thanks Claude...

OF COURSE their 'official' reports...

Boxing News, top boxing writers & correspondents in the Main Boxing Newspapers ALREADY cited on numerous other records!

what's the delay then, sent them to [email protected] ?

[claudevsq]

Listen, I really can't tell you, maybe Marina is not home, being on a convention far away or whatever, you already have to ask her yourself...

Official reports only come from the supervising commission not news reports which are often biased.

[jimglen]

So BOXING NEWS, British Boxing's official trade paper,

and the Major News Papers all that I've seen cited on Boxers Records,

are you telling me aren't 'official'.

Yes exactly, Boxing News is just a newspaper with it's own perspective. The official reports come from the British Boxing Board of Control who sanction fights in the United Kingdom.

[jimglen]

well who's going to remove all such reports from hundreds of records that have been 'attached' onto fighters records on here?

Why do you cite Newspapers also under certain fights if your not also going to attach them to the 'book icon'

[John]

There is some confusion here, the editors use official fight reports to lock down the shows (green tick). Anyone can edit the wiki to add newspaper reports.

[jimglen]

I've got hundreds of reports for hundreds of fighters,

how do you do that then or WHO do I send them too.

[John]

use your forum name and password to login to the wiki

[jimglen]

ok I can't login or I am already logged in (?),

and I'm on the talk discussion link, is that the link for the BOOK Icon for fight reports

same Fight listed twice, mistake - Mick Hasson vs Bert Gilroy L ko 1

Boxing News, Fight Reports, 29, 1 1937 Glasgow
ALSO recorded in Fight Record 17, page 6 April 11 1945

it is their first meeting of two (2) fights, BoxRec has this one listed twice.

that is incorrect... also Gillespie vs Gilroy KO 3, NOT 1.

thank you.


after note, I see you have Mick Hasson's record twice this is the Same Mick Hasson who boxed Tommy Henderson, and others too of course most missing as yet.
