    I can't tell you folks how fun it has been to be here all of these years on and off, but I have decided to accept a position at another website starting next Monday, and have made a renewed commitment to covering fights and fighters, giving something back to the sport that gave me direction and discipline in life.
    A new year brings changes and new challenges, commencement signals the end of one thing, but the beginning of another.
    Thanks to Carlos, Andrew, REED, Slystaff, LOK, dsimon, and others that were totally cool that I may have neglected to mention here.
    I am confident fightbeat goes well in its new direction, and I'll see some of you folks for sure at the gyms and fights.
    Best of Luck,
    Karl

    I'm supposed to be there in late February or early March, bro.
    I can't wait to mee The Champ as I have a few momentos for him to sign for me.
    One of them is the on site program to his first fight with mantequilla Napoles, and the others are Boxing Illustrateds that he was the cover subject on.
    I'll definitely keep in touch, REED.
    Thanks, bro.
    I am gonna miss doing that radio show with you guys.
    Karl

    Sorry you've decided to go. We wish you the best and you know you are always welcome here bro! You'll be sorely missed on the radio show. you shouldn't even go. Really. What's the point, you know you belong here. Fuck them and the ignorant fucks in the world. you should stick around. I think with a bigger crew running this joint things are going to take off.

    Thanks, bro.
    I'll let you guys know where I will be at Sunday in the event you decide to read my stuff.
    I am retiring from posting in the forums for the most part anywhere as I have got to get going on my language studies in my free time next week.

    Does this mean the greatly anticipated Steve Dave vs Stinger showdown is not happening? :dunno:
    Even though it was scheduled for this past summer, we can still reschedule it for summer 2008 if you like.:cool:
