K C Boxing News

From Mark Graves:The site is from a fans perspective - me as a fan I mean. I love following the local boxing scene even more than the national one so far. It has gotten too expensive for the PPV so I mainly focus on KC. The site started at the end of 2004 by myself and a friend. My friend got the structure for the site and sent me on my way. The reason we built the site was to have a place where fans could go and find out about all the pro boxing matches in KC and the surround areas. Before we launched the site, I had been taking notes about fights and fighters so I could remember them the next time I saw them. That is how the archives and boxers pages started. At the time, I only knew about Battle Star fights and when I found out there were more fights scheduled, I felt there needed to be a place people could go to find out about them so we built the site. Then I ended up getting a radio show originally called The K C Boxing News Radio Show. It changed when I got Dave McKee as my partner on the air and it became Ringside Radio because Dave was writing for ringsidereport.com at the time. Once I started the radio show, I began to do my reviews on the air instead of the round-by-round written format found on the archives page. Just lazy to be honest. I no longer have the weekly radio show about boxing but I am still on KCXL. In April of 2006, I took and passed the ABC Certification test for boxing judges. I am very happy about that and I may get to judge fights someday.
