Biography
I've covered sports and music extensively for a variety of outlets. I worked for the NFL for three seasons, covered the Oakland A's for the Martinez News-Gazette, and boxing for USA TODAY, RING Magazine, and Boxing Monthly. I've also covered music for LA Weekly (before they purged their entire staff) and my own LA-based music blog Pass The Aux.

By Mark Ortega| Premier Boxing Champions Verified The Mexican warrior is back in world title contention after stunning Quillin during their back and forth super middleweight encounter Saturday night on FS1. At 37 years old, Alfredo Angulo is young again. Yes, he is no longer in his prime, although you wouldn't have known it watching him work against Peter Quillin. Angulo has always been more brawler than boxer, whose heart and punching power made a difference.
