Why is Boxing News important at The Grueling Truth?

Boxing plays a prominent role in our sports coverage. When the Grueling Truth began back in 2015, it was mainly based on covering Football and Boxing. You can tell just by the guest list that the Grueling Truth podcasts have had over the years. The sport’s legends recognize that the Grueling Truth has massive respect for the men who made the sport what it is. Most national sports websites have a section and pay lip service to the sport. At the Grueling Truth, Boxing is not just a niche sport; it is a sport that is given the respect that it deserves.
