Yeah , print ****zines are dead. All of my subscriptions , even books ,are digital. There is no sense in killing trees and going through the process of printing a ****zine and distributing it anymore.

Especially when an AI that is more idiot than the most idiot man on the planet censors the word "màgazine".

wtf, did they really sell the Ring ****zine to that smelly sand ******? Now they're going to rename "The Bible of Boxing" to "The quran of Boxing."

This was actually funny

I suspect that Turki got such a sweet deal for The Ring in exchange for some promotional understandings with Golden Boy that will remain private. Turki will give Golden Boy's stable of fighters preferential treatment and in return the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will have wormed its way into another media outlet for lots more sportswashing for the numbnut West to consume.

Is it really a good deal? I cant imagine The Ring is worth much more than 10 million, if it was they wouldn't have stopped the print edition

Apparently the buyer thinks it's a good deal for the imprimatur of integrity that is central to the Saudi sportswashing effort.

The Ring for all intents and purposes closed a couple years ago. Just another boxing news website now.

Lets see what Turki does with the brand.... cant be any worse off.
