COONEY'S THOUGHTS

What's up readers and stalkers? Things have been pretty busy as of late, but everything is excellent. Be sure to check out my website for all of today's boxing news. Last night I spoke with the new WBC Silver welterweight champion Josesito Lopez. He stunned the boxing world by defeating Victor Ortiz.
I also spoke with Top Rank boss man Bob Arum. He gave me a nice update on Manny Pacquiao, and the upcoming Nonito Donaire fight. Check that out at 8CountNews.com as well.
On a personal note, my awesome, beautiful God Daughter will be competing in the MS Vietnam beauty pageant next week. I'm so proud of her and love her very much. I am blessed to have both her and my little Lanvy in my life. My Nephew, US Marine Brendan Cooney will be deploying to Afghanistan this fall. My stomach is knotted up, and I will be worried sick until he returns. I'm extremely proud of him. To serve our nation is an honorable thing. Not everyone has the balls, the muster, or the will to serve in our Armed Forces.
Lastly, I couldn't be happier with my new employer. Great atmosphere, my new team is outstanding. I have been here for 3 months now, and have ZERO regrets with the decision that I made. I hope all of you have a great 4th of July!
