Why subscribe to Total Boxing?

After some 30 years writing for other people, I’m doing it for myself. Sure, I may still have bylines at Men’s Health, GQ and some other places, but if you enjoy award-winning boxing writing from someone who has prided himself on his independence, then I am the subscription you have been waiting for.

There will be three drops (minimum) per week, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. One paywalled, one free, and one that is paywalled shortly after the introduction.

I believe there is a place for the written word – though I’ll be using this platform for all manner of boxing things – that it can thrive, and that it is needed in boxing now more than ever.

Expect exclusive interviews, long-form features, fight analysis, opinion and historical stories, all written with the context that only comes from decades spent covering the sport.

No clickbait or hot takes (sorry, not sorry). It’s about telling the stories that matter and explaining why they matter.

In 2025 he won 1st place in Event Coverage in the BWAA awards for his ringside report in Tokyo of Naoya Inoue-Luis Nery and was recognised in all categories and the same thing happened in 2026, with two honourable mentions, a 1st Place for Feature under 1,500 words, and a 2nd and 3rd spot.
