it is the biggest news and sport site in australia, and one of, if not the biggest media conlomerate in the world. here, look at the latest news...http://www.news.com.au/sport/boxing-mma
last article posted over 5 weeks ago!! up to that point they did post something fairly regularly. now they have dropped boxing completely..
not sure why they have dropped or are just ignoring boxing. not only local but world wide fights?
boxing deserves more coverage than this.

local media interest in boxing? ZILCH!
Re: local media interest in boxing? ZILCH!
oz boxing needs some sort of PR, advertising and promotional department. if that is what the ABA are supposed to do, well they have failed.
our emerging stars need more exposure in media. interested and invested parties in oz boxing need to sit down together with interested media and work a way forward to get more exposure in print, news, and sports shows if just to educate sports followers that we do have some talent worth following.
more interest from the public would create better sales at gates, and increase profits at shows. it would also give PPV better ratings and fox fights better numbers.
