I'm Lance Pugmire, boxing and MMA reporter for the Los Angeles Times. I'll be covering the Canelo-GGG II live from Las Vegas, but first I'll be here to answer all your questions starting at 11am PT/2pm ET/7pm BT on Friday, 9/14. Ask Me Anything!
Hi, I'm Lance Pugmire, the L.A. Times boxing beat writer. (I also cover mixed martial arts and the Anaheim Ducks.) I've been at the paper for nearly 20 years, and my reporting on doping and the death of Northwestern football player has received awards from the Associated Press Sports Editors.
I'm currently in Las Vegas to bring you extensive live coverage of Canelo Alvarez vs. Gennady Golovkin II, easily one of the most anticipated rematches of the century. You can follow our live blog here. I'm also the host of "Pound for Pound," a series produced by the Los Angeles Times Studios that gives you a behind the scenes look at boxing's biggest fights. Our first season focused on Canelo vs. GGG I, and we're back again for the rematch. You can watch all episodes here.
I'll be back to answer all of your questions about the Canelo-GGG fight, about the sport of boxing, about journalism, and anything else you have on your minds. I'll be joining you starting at 11am PT/2pm ET/7pm BT on Friday, September 14th.
