My thanks to Oliver Fennell for drawing attention to my idle suggestion that mediocre American Ray Austin could unseat Wladimir Klitschko last weekend, a prediction roughly in line, in terms of stunning stupidity, with my suggestion Clifford Etienne could outwork and and outlast Mike Tyson a year or two ago. Oliver, who now writes for Ben Carey’s website ukboxingpress.co.uk is a long-standing contact from our dual residency at audleyharrison.com. Proof if proof were needed that association with failed heavyweights needn’t preclude success as a writer.
Knowing greater attention than the 50 regulars to this site, yes 50, will be afforded to my lazy musings on here brings its own pbligations and perils. And don’t think I will one day return the favour young Mr. Fennell.
I start Monday.

Better to be there before they fail than after. Any truth in the rumour rayaustin.com has offered you a job?
