Kolya, Jane Doe (cowardly act to hide behind an alias) must have had a boxer "get robbed" in Houston. I had one boxer tell me that USAB has a meeting with all the officials and tells them who to pick.

He did find me after that and apologized.

On usaboxing.org page you can apply online for the Director of Marketing position...

"Cited all over the Internet?" Owwhhh, I'm sure all that Internet chatter will really help amateur boxing take off. Updating the USA Boxing website is not a press release. There were almost zero articles in major newspapers across the country. If news organizations are only sent basic press releases, they will not come because there is no compelling story to cover.

Yeah, what top notch marketing person is going to move to Colorado Springs for that salary?

There were quite a few articles actually, although I suppose there could have been more. The Washington Post had several articles a day, and most of the fighters had stuff in their hometown papers at least.

Yes - the Orange County Register covered Ronny Rios almost daily.

I don't agree with a lot being said by the "Doe family", but this statement is true. They really need to think about raising the salary unless this person will just do small jobs and they are going to contract with a marketing firm to handle the big stuff.
