    It’s cliche, but Borges will land on his feet. He’s one of the best (and few knowledgeable) boxing writers out there.

    Too bad no one wants to read about boxing anymore.

    A boxing site will pick him up.

    TBH, I don't think there's nearly enough top boxing coverage. Would read that over an MMA story in a heartbeat. Of course, that's a whole 'nother thread.

    Maybe his buddy Don King can give him a job.

    Isn't this basically a useless skill. It is like being a knowledgeable auto racing, bowling or golf writer. With staff cutbacks they are becoming extinct.

    Is there any boxing website that pays a living wage?

    I think Dan Rafael already got the last decent-paying boxing job left.

    A. Cullen, in my rare interactions, seems like an alright guy. That does not excuse this.

    B. The touchdown dance by Minihane is way over the top. And it’s classic Minihane. I generally like his show, actually, but when he falls he’ll fall very hard and people will be very happy.

    The guess the questions are mostly about the 5 year anniversary column, but he was included the breaking news Pulitzer they got in 2013 right? If he fabricated any of that, I mean, Jesus....

    The entire newsroom received the Pulitzer.

    Which is why the breaking news Pulitzer is and has long been a joke, given to the saddest story of the year, to the newsroom that, wow, showed up to do their job.
