    Cost me nearly 150 in Australia to subscribe, and some ******* at the post office has pinched two issues I reckon.

    Yeah you're 1000% right. Burt Sugar should have his own weekly boxing talk show on HBO. That would be awesome man. I would seriously love that.

    Yet the majority of their articles are on Pacquiao?:huh And their interview was with Tomasz Adamek? And they have a features on Giovanni Segura and Haye-Harrison? None of those are American.

    A lot of people criticise the Ring, but broad sweeping generalisations without anything to back it up like say an example make Headbangers post null and void.

    For example, this issue has Wlad on the cover and Manny was on the cover of the one prior to that. Haye was on the cover this year also. I just checked, the year round up issue has Wlad Manny and Khan on the cover, that's 4 without even looking too hard...

    I haven't noticed a difference in bias towards Golden Boy fighters.

    I did notice that it is more available in my town now and the website is so much better.

    If Oscar tried to influence it in a big wrong way it would only lose credibility and buyers.

    The fact Donaire is there at all, never mind 5th, baffles me.

    Hes done enough to be ahead of Haye. Not Froch or Ward though.

    We got these two losers that say reading a boxing magazine is bad, yet, they are making fun of fighters getting knocked out. Fighters that risk their health doing their job entertaining people like you and you make fun of them. Douchbags like this make me ****ing sick.
