Nice one Gareth, I like the fact you add your score scard and compare it to the official one. It shows a good research and also gives the reader more of an insight - as we know some decision can be dodgy.

I Like the one the BBC did. Its was very in depth and gave a great indication of what went on.

Williams holds on to title

Dazzo Williams retained his British featherweight crown with a points win over Jamie McKeever in Bridgend.
The Hereford fighter damaged McKeever's right eye early on and despite a brave challenge the champion was never threatened.

The referee scored the bout 116-113 in Williams' favour.

Jason Cook was due to defend his IBO lightweight title against Kevin Bennett but withdrew with flu.

See what I mean, Proffesional boxing reporting at its very best.

Do they get paid for this bollo(ks ?

Brilliant report Gaz..indepth yet interesting. They wont need me to go to the shows anymore!

On the BBC question..it shows why internet sites get accreditation..bar BN we are the only medium that give full reports on everything, we let the fans know what went on during the undercard, you idea of giving the public your scores is superb...

Good work mate

I got 215 words in a well regarded local evening paper recently, reporting on a small hall show. Just got the cheque this morning. £10.46. How the fornicate is anyone supposed to make a living from that? At least they paid me I suppose, which is more than most of them do...

Try 3500 for boxing news for the Princely sum of 80 quid.

I make that 2.28p per word.
