    I know Buddy, I was just having a go at you. I have no doubt that with you and the other buyers now in charge, fightbeat can return to its former glory :hammert:

    We're gonna sort things out slowly over the next little while, but I'm a person of my word. Don't go anywhere, guys! This place is staying put for a long long time.

    And I'd really like to say that Cupey has been a one-man show trying to do all this on his lonesome. That hasn't worked out too well even though he really tried. With help from you boxing and MMA fans, this will go back to being a dynamite forum. We just need to remember to debate as best we're able, and to debate the SUBJECT...not the forum member. We have some great boxing brains here. :popcorn:

    Now lets just hope you guys can keep your egos in check and not get a fucking God complex or I'll have to dip in my savings and buy you fuckers out.

    Good Luck

    Congrats to David!:bears:

    Fightbeat can make a comeback, but just like a comeback in boxing, it will take a lot of work and dedication.

    Regional correspondents will be extremely important on the hard road back -- writers who are familiar with the fighters, managers, trainers, and promoters.

    Media personnel who specialize in video will also help a great deal, and another radio show will certainly bring on more hits tot he front page.

    Best of Luck.

    Karl

    Couldn't agree more on this one, Karl!
    Do you know any good regional correspondents?
    You know, the kind who asks interesting, hard-hitting questions, and don't try to gloss over their fighters short-comings, be it in the ring or out of it...

    Why don't you give it a shot yourself?

    Help out the website on the way back.

    If you are referring to me brother, I have not written for fightbeat for quite some time now.

    I will suggest that you attempt to make contact with some writers if you are really serious about your reply, or as I indicated earlier, do it yourself
