As some of you already know, we have been working on a documentary video project called “Brooklyn to Beijing” about three New York City amateurs trying to make the 2008 US Olympic Boxing Team.

We were going to wait until next week to officially announce that the first four episodes are up, but a sharp-eyed scribe at Maxboxing gave us some love while we were still trying to be coy with the beta-testing.

So with the cat out of the proverbial bag, we just want to make sure our homepretzels are not in the dark. Check out: No Mas TV.

The four episodes online now follow middlewight Danny “The Golden Child” Jacobs. He’s from Brownsville, he’s won four NYC Golden Gloves titles, he looks kinda like Carmelo Anthony, his hands are ridiculously fast, and he is already, in his own words, a “ghetto celebrity”.

Over the next couple of weeks, you’ll also meet Will Rozinsky from Ozone Park and Saddam “World Kid” Ali from Canarsie.

As we build the interconnected “Brooklyn to Beijing” storylines, we look forward to hearing feedback from our core peoples on what’s working and what isn’t. So please hit us with your thoughts when you can.

Thank you for supporting.

Keep the gloves up,
