Yorkshire based contributor Andrew Wake has crammed a lot into his short involvement in the sweet science. Andrew has been writing for some years but only made the transition from fan to fight scribe in 2007. Since then he has interviewed a plethora of fighters, ranging from world champions to up and coming prospects. As he says himself, 'I don't want to just interview champions, I want to discover them.'
SecondsOut Editor in Chief Clive Bernath has been involved in boxing for more than 20 years. As far as experience and qualifications go Clive is as qualified as anyone to be writing about the Noble Art. Over the years he has worked within the sport as a Press and PR man, sanctioning body supervisor and event management for various promoters. Clive also spent four successful years as BBC Boxing's official statistician.
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.
John Lumpkin has been a fan of boxing for over 30 years. He has a diverse background with experience and advanced education in the fields of technology, business, and law which he uses to cover the sport. His articles frequently address boxing from odd angles and unusual topics in a continual effort to inspire readers to expand their horizons.
Matthew Hurley has been writing about boxing for seven years, contributing to many websites and has written for Boxing Digest Magazine. He has also published articles on true crime and recently co-authored the book The Seven Pillars of Franchising Success which was published in 2007.
Michael Norby became captivated with boxing after watching fellow Irishman Barry McGuigan defeat Eusebio Pedroza for the WBA featherweight world title in 1985. He began his journalism career covering news and politics in his hometown of Derry City, Northern Ireland and wrote occasional boxing stories when, as he puts it, "the sports editor would allow me to." Michael began writing for SecondsOut in the summer of 2006 and lives in Boston, USA.
Las Vegas-based columnist who also reports on all the goings-on in Sin City. Passionate about music and other sports as well, but the fightsports are his number-one priority aside from his family. Originally from Chicago's South Side, Sloan has been a boxing junkie since he was a little kid and grew up on Mike Tyson, Marvin Hagler and Ray Leonard.
Australia's best known boxing writer today, Paul Upham is the Content Editor of SecondsOut.com and has written for this website continuously since 2000. The Editor of the Australian Boxing Almanac, he has also written pieces for The Australian newspaper, Fox Sports, Main Event Television, KO and The Ring. 36 year-old Upham has appeared live on air as a boxing analyst for Main Event Pay-Per-View, Sky Channel, Fox Sports, Sky News Australia and others.
Sean Waisglass is a writer and photographer based in Toronto, Canada. In addition to covering pro and amateur boxing for various print and internet publications, he is currently working on a documentary photography series about the sport.

In 2005, he was honored by the Boxing Writers Association of America, which bestowed the Nat Fleischer Award for career excellence in boxing journalism upon him.
