Hamza – Article check in

I’ve chosen that boxing will be the subject of my feature article. I chose boxing as my beat because there are so many different ways to approach it. As a result, the major issue I chose for my feature article is to supply readers with pro-boxing statements in order to convince them that boxing should never be banned. To counter the anti-boxing criticism, I’ll use pro-boxing arguments. The issue I was experiencing was deciding on a single topic to focus on inside my beat. That was a challenging assignment for me because I wanted to choose a topic that would keep the reader engaged and attentive to the reading, so I had to go back and forth with a few topics inside my beat before deciding on one. For field work, I conducted a interview with a friend from the boxing gym where I used to train. I asked him about boxing in general and what he thinks of people who support outlawing the sport. The interview went well since I learned about his perspective as an amateur boxer.
