This edition of “Pages From The Scrapbook” features my pre-fight article piece on the Muhammad Ali vs. Trevor Berbick heavyweight bout – dated December 10, 1981.

Many of my current fan base don’t know that back in the seventies, eighties, and nineties, I was a boxing beat writer for my local newspaper, the Santa Barbara News Press, doing fight predictions.  I also appeared as a guest reporter on local radio for all major fights.

I learned quite a bit about the journalism field in my younger years that has helped me to be the best I can today in producing dmboxing.com for all.  I am delighted to bring back some of these old article features.
