  • No apologies necessary Tris.

    I’ve read your article about Ricky for boxing scene and knowing your friendship with him, writing war and peace with him, having him on boxing life stories, I can only imagine how you must be feeling. Grief is a process, so take all the time you need. I look forward to your tribute to Ricky Hatton tribute in the future.

    Tris, your Boxing Life Stories is an archive of excellence and the continuation with Boxing Conversations is also very impressive.

    Take care of yourself.

    Bravo to Tris Dixon for his adaptation / addition to the (already Top Notch) Boxing Life Stories genre.

  • Great addition

    Good stuff, the longer Boxing Life Stories are brilliant but they are few are far between these days so the new shorter “boxing conversations” are a decent addition as they are being released at a quick rate. Keep up the good work Tris.
