I'm a journalist in broadcast news with a deep passion for the “sweet science.”
I've profiled boxers in articles that were published both in print and online, reported from the press box at fights, and train consistently — honing my own craft.
I’ve sparred with amateur and professional fighters, worked with pro coaches, and studied the sport extensively.
My goal here is to provide boxing content that is informative, objective, and engaging. Whether that means previewing a fight, breaking down punch sequences, analyzing boxers, or providing commentary.
If you learned something or were entertained by this content please: like, comment, subscribe -- all that good stuff.
And that right there, is Harry’s Hook...

Harry's Hook - Boxing
Happy Thanksgiving my boxing brethren (and sistren). I wanted to provide a much-needed update.
As I noted in my prior preview and prediction post, I moved and started a new job in mid-September, though I'm not yet in my final residence. Paperwork and logistics have taken a bit longer than anticipated, but I should begin moving into the new apartment next week. I had hoped to continue creating content prior to getting settled, but beyond the job and change in schedule -- the network I'm working at has been going through a major transition so that's been its own adjustment as well.
There's other factors that have complicated my intentions to create new content, but I won't bore you with more -- everyone has plenty on their plates (Thanksgiving pun intended). Just wanted to touch base with you all and say this channel and creating content have been on my mind and I DO plan to get back to it again after I get settled into the new apartment and build out my recording space. Previews and predictions, post-fight analyses, discussions of fights and boxers through a historical and geopolitical lens, style breakdowns, rants and theories, perhaps some fantasy matchups ... IDEAS ABOUND. Livestreaming fight commentary will be more difficult with my new schedule (have to get up at 4:30am on Sat/Sun), but there's lots of other types of content to dive into and PLENTY to talk about. I greatly appreciate your patience.
I'm thankful for all of you and this boxing community we're building.

Who is the DEFINITIVE boxer of this era?
I'm sorry Inoue, Bivol, Beterbiev, etc...but these are the only 2 options for the post-Canelo era.

WOW. Legendary boxers do legendary things. Didn't think Crawford's defense -- particularly his chin -- could hold up to Canelo's power. If not one of the greatest, then Terence Crawford has to be one of the BEST fighters we've ever seen. Bud also has an all-time level of raw competitiveness.
CONFESSION: I had to get up at 4AM for my new job (I work Wed-Sun) so I couldn't stay up to watch Canelo vs Crawford. Saw highlights -- will watch on Netflix when I get back. So happy for Bud and for boxing.

My CANELO vs CRAWFORD preview and prediction is POSTED -- breaking down the boxers and their techniques, analyzing keys to victory, dispelling common notions about the fight, examining the X-factors, and ultimately delivering my PREDICTION.
*Personal note: I'm in the process of moving cities and changing jobs and wasn't sure I would be able to get this done, but I really wanted to deliver a preview/prediction video to you all for this mega fight. Hoping I can put together a post-fight analysis for this as well amidst the hectic pace of my life right now. I'll be sure to keep you all posted...but for now, enjoy the video and the fight 👊🏼 🥊

Moses Itauma just INCINERATED Dillian Whyte in LESS THAN 1 round. Some -- including Turki -- are calling for him to face Oleksandr Usyk NEXT for the undisputed heavyweight crown. What say you???
