    The 4-year-old daughter of boxer Mike Tyson died at a hospital Tuesday, a day after her neck apparently got caught in a treadmill cord at her Phoenix home, police said.

    I think this deserves a moment of silence for the respect of the child and the whole Tyson family.

    Good day my fellow boxing enthusiast,

    In an effort to foster unity and camaraderie in our little boxing community, yours truly came up with an idea of making up an article concerning the mythical pound for pound list.

    The concept is inspired by our community leader Bryan Trafford.. So all credit goes to him.

    I'll appreciate if you'll send me an e-mail and voiced out your opinion on the matter, nevertheless you can just post it on my BB.

    My e-mail.. louierrific_24@yahoo.com

    The voting process will end April 6. It's not my article, it's our article and it'll be published April 8. I expect your support guys and I hope the best for the boxing section,

    Sincerely,
    Louie/Lou/voodoo doll or whatever you want to call me.. =)
