About Nick »

Central Pennsylvania-raised and Duke-educated, Nick never pursued a career in sports journalism but somehow found himself writing about sports in some capacity for most of his adult life. He's been a contributor to Canada's SLAM! Wrestling for almost a decade and just finished up a stint of over two years writing and editing the Sports Cards subsite at About.com.

When it comes to sports he'd write about for free though, the sweet science tops the list. Nick started the boxing blog BoxingWatchers.com with two of his brothers in November 2007, and he looks forward to sharing some content from that site as well as some independent thoughts on the sport with the Bleacher Report community.

    Rafael Garcia Quinones commented on Weekend Boxing Predictions: Bute-Andrade II and Guzman-Funeka
