THANKSGIVING MESSAGE TO 8CN READERS

Happy Thanksgiving to all of the 8CN readers out there. Firstly, let me thank you for your patience. 8CN is going through some dynamic exciting changes. We have hired Peter Czymbor as our new Managing Editor. No folks, we have not lost all of our staff. The site is going through a face-lift and we have taken some of the names down temporarily. They will be brought back up soon.

8CN will now be paying writers to join our team. Visit the site www.8countnews.com for details on that. If you're interested in becoming an 8CN writer, contact me at bradcooney1@comcast.net and I will send you Peter's way for consideration.

I am excited about Peter Czymbor being our new Managing Editor, and can see why he would be in demand from other sites. Sorry fellas, he's not on the market lol. Anyway, thanks again for sticking with us. 8CN will be back in full force in no time.

Catching up with MMA legend Pat Miletich

Had a chance to meet MMA legend Pat Miletich in Jackson, MS at the StrikeForce card. Great guy, and I enjoyed the in depth conversation with him. Big thanks to Pat and the entire StrikeForce team for their hospitality and new friendship.

Holyfield on Pacquiao - - "He's sensational"

I just spoke with Evander Holyfield. He told me his fight Vs. Sherman Williams has yet again been canceled. Holyfield also breaks down and comments on Pacquiao Vs. Margarito. Check it out at www.8countnews.com

Margarito update

I just got a text from Sergio Martinez (Margarito manager)and he told me that Tony just had successful eye surgery, and is in the recovery room.

COONEY'S THOUGHTS

So the big fight is tonight. I look forward to watching it, that's for sure. It's nice to be able to actually visit the camps and then watch the fight on TV. I predict that Manny Pacquiao will win by via UD. Margarito is probably too big for Pacquiao to knockout.


Check out my new Podcast interview with our very own Roy Jones Jr. Roy talks about his future in the ring, and addresses the few clowns that hate on him. Roy also breaks down the big Pacquiao Vs. Margarito fight.


I find it extremely funny how one website cries and kicks and stomps their feet, and says that they are boycotting any coverage of the Pacquiao fight, yet they land an advertiser that is going to show the fight....and then they ask their readers to go look at the fight LOL - On that note, that's all I got today. Thanks for stopping by.
