Hi - how does this work? HUD or mouselook-weapon style?

Where is the article or story for this post? Who owns the sim? who manages the sim? What kind of events are held here? What well known names visit the sim? When are events scheduled? Who’s idea was it for creating the sim? Are there other sims like it? Can people train here? Are classes offered? Can anyone participate or is this a spectator sim?

I’m the creator and owner of Averlast Boxing.

Oki Dufaux never won the LW title. That was not a title match. Pipp owns the LW title. Also, the SLURL is wrong. http://slurl.com/secondlife/Trueblood/134/178/662 is the correct SLURL.

It would be nice to post something with verified information. :/

HeadBurro, we use no HUD or even mouselook.

I want to apologize for the stories I submitted on this event. They are largely inaccurate.

There were severe storms in my area(RL) and I had to log and relog several times, which made it difficult to keep accurate track of the matches.

This wouldn’t have been a problem, however, if I had had the manners or good sense to speak with an Averlast official and get my story straight before sending it.

If anyone would like information on their group, please contact him or another group member.

I’ve spoken with , and apologized to, Averlast Boxing Boss, Karine Koba, who was very gracious about the whole thing.
I apologize to the Averlast group, and the boxers and fans from that evening’s events.

Hey, no biggie - honest mistakes always happen and it’s no like we are surgeons so no one is likely to die :)

I want to say thank to you for bringing a game to my attention I had no idea existed - I’ll try and get along very soon to see it.
