About WBN

World Boxing News or WBN has been online since August 1st 2010. It was founded by Phil D. Jay in June 2010 with the help of britishboxers.co.uk editor Chris Maylett. WBN is dedicated to reporting boxing news from around the world, concentrating on the five main boxing organisations from the WBC, WBA, IBF, WBO and the IBO.

Our emphasis is on world title fights, title eliminators and former world champions as well as the best up and coming fighters from around the globe.

The dedicated team led by Phil, are constantly scanning the news, contacting members of the boxing world and receiving up to date press releases with the hope of bringing all the top news and interviews to the fight fans.

Our close affiliation with the world's top promoters means the fans get all the news in one place after WBN teamed up with Frank Warren, Matchroom Boxing, DiBella Entertainment, Golden Boy and organisations the WBC, WBO and WBA amongst others.

Boxing Scene, the highest viewed boxing site across the Atlantic has also become a firm friend of World Boxing News and both sides share news on occasions to keep the fans informed from either side of the Ocean.

WBN also has close links with US reporter Elie Seckbach, who provides videos and interviews along with iFilm London in the UK, who travel constantly to all the main press conferences to bring all the visual news to the WBN viewers.

We see it as our duty to report the news accurately and fairly, with a balanced view for all fighters, trainers and promoters alike. We will concentrate fully on reporting the news the fans want to hear rather than the scandals that the tabloids and other boxing sites try to taint the fight game with. We will NOT report on fighters private matters unless they directly interfere with a boxer's career or are in the interest of the fans, we stand purely for boxing and boxing alone.
