Even the most avid fans of boxing will admit that keeping up with the sport is a demanding task. The reasons are seemingly endless and, when trying to list them all, one may wonder why he or she let the sport put them through such a tumultuous burden of simply staying afloat. With that in mind, The War Report (TWR) is designed to help you through the process.
Simply put, TWR will be a weekly recap of what happened in boxing and gives a snapshot of what’s about to transpire. Fifty-two editions, one for each week of the year, will have a consistent format and are divided into the following sections:
Fighter(s) of the Week, Fight(s) of the Week and Knockout(s) of the Week: These sections give the best boxing had to offer over each weekend. An award column, this is not but TWR is inspired by the brain-wracking boxing fans suffer when trying to remember everything that happened in a year as they hand out their own personal awards. These sections will be sort of like a catalog for the year and each section will be grouped at year’s end with article links embedded to make the search easier. Lastly, it will be this column’s goal to have a sole fighter, fight and knockout of each week but it’s realistic to think that won’t be the case every week.
Hostile Agent of the Week: Just like there are great performances in a given week, there are bad ones and this section will keep track of all the fuckery that happens in boxing, both in and out of the ring.
Results: Quick results of the notable fights of weeks past all over the world.
Declarations of War: This will simply provide what fights have been officially signed, sealed and delivered over the course of the past week. Official fights only – no rumors.
Imminent Conflicts: This final section will provide the upcoming fights for the following week as the original war declarations approach their final hour. It will lay out all the upcoming worldwide title bouts, the television schedule in the United States and a few fights of note that aren’t under either umbrella.
TWR will certainly evolve over time but its focus will never change. It’s a safety net for off-and-on fans, who can’t – or refuse – to watch every weekend and an organized way to start every week for the diehards. Finding the right vehicle to navigate through these boxing streets is tough enough already and TWR invites you to take a seat in the back while it sits firmly in the driver’s seat.
