New Boxing magazine

I don't get it. Is it going to be an actual magazine (i.e. printed) because it refers to itself as a 'digital publication'?

 

seems like a proper mag.

 

get rid of vivek wallace the guy is a clown i used to look forward to his mail bag every monday and his left hook lounge.hes so biased now

 

Having already subscribed to Haye weekly at £80 pound a pop, I just can't afford it man.

 

Well it seems to cost ten dolars for a two year subscription (24 issues a year) so it seems like it must be online...and if you read the stuff for advertisers it clearly talks about it as a digital magazine; one of those ones where it simulates flipping a page over.

If it is, I won't be subscribing but good luck!

Although I am confused too...the word "print" is used. If it was paper, I might buy...I'm awfully old-fashioned like that!

 

Its an online magazine. A sister publication to MMA e-zine www.scrappfightmag.com. At the subscription price its well worth subscribing to - you're talking less than 50cents per issue. As we've done with Scrapp, Undisputed will bring readers a mixture of interviews with the biggest fighters, indepth feature pieces and fight previews.

 

Genuine questions (because I know nothing about it): How does an 'online magazine' differ from a website? Is it sort of formatted like a mag in pdf or something?

And how will you have an editorial advantage over websites? Just more, in depth features, etc?

Anyway, good luck.

 

Yeah its a magazine in PDF. So the advantage is better formating - brighter backgrounds, photos integrated into features, etc. The advantage over doing a magazine is that its cheaper and that the production times are far shorter.

well at 50c an issue you can't really lose can you, what's that in money, about 35p?

 

The online magazine format actually looks good and works quite well

 

Agree

 

I think Vivek is one of the better writers around.

Who do you think he is biased towards?

 

Tim Kudgis is the man

 

I agree. Despite being a pretty good writer, his bias isn't disguised as well as he thinks it is. His coverage of the whole Mayweather/Pacquiao issue stunk of one-sided writing, and was picked up by every reader.
