Phil Woolever
Phil Woolever covered most major Vegas fights from 1988 – 2008 as West Coast Bureau Chief for Boxing Digest and frequent contributor to The Ring.
He currently lives with his wife and daughter in Dusseldorf, Germany where he was pleasantly surprised to find continued blessings, a vibrant Eurozone boxing scene, and abundant fuel toward his quest for the poem that will save the world.
Thomas Hauser is the author of 49 books. 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.
He was the first Internet writer ever to receive the honor. Lennox Lewis recently observed, “A hundred years from now, if people want to learn about boxing in this era, they’ll read Thomas Hauser.”
