Jason Pribila "Pribs" is based out of Bethlehem, USA. My first feature article on the Sweet Science was published on Secondsout.com on Christmas Day 2007. Since receiving that gift I have been able to cover several fight cards in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Like many people in their 30's, I fell in love with the sport of boxing as Mike Tyson was terrorizing the Heavyweight Division. Thankfully fighters like Arturo Gatti and Sugar Shane Mosley were there to mend my broken heart.
