Broner, Canelo and Chavez are the future , but about about Abner Mares? This kid last 5 fights > Canelo and Broner last 5

The RING puts a dude on their cover who doesn't respect contracts and is a racist. Then people wonder why the magazine is losing credibility. Call it what you want, being mad or hating but it's the truth. And it's pretty sad people condone this type of stuff.

you mad?

The Demarco fight is a 50/50 fight The Ring shoulda waited until after that fight before they put him on the cover

You Know it's bad when this future "star" is most associated with hair combing. :sad: The hate is strong in this one. You mad Martinez didn't make it to the cover? http://www.fulmersbelly.com/img/hateometer2.jpg That is pretty dumb, I wish they left that out Why? I mean, I agree it's dumb. But it's what makes Broner pretty much no? The only original thing he has in his whole persona.

i hope he dont come out.

so true. It use to be known as the true bible of boxing...Now its not shlt! DLH made the only real thing Boxing had another way to make money and promote fights! I havent bought a issue since the change not will i ever It's November

Is there a "PROBLEM" here?? :lol1::lol1::lol1:

Gotta give it to him, he has generated some publicity, clearly has some talent in the ring and managed to get on the cover of the Ring. If in five years he is a champ and has graced numerous covers then he will have done well and backed up his mouth(depending on him fighting the best of his contempories, of course). Really not convinced by him as a fighter yet...we'll see.

Alright man, and kudos to you believing yet again that these ignorant people are "marketing geniuses". Right now, let's focus on him actually selling more than 4k tickets in his home town, highest paid athlete...in the world...comes much, much later. He's not the Marketing genius. Its the 'other folks" once they get hold of him he's gonna make a lot of people a lot of money (and himself). He won't be the highest paid in the world. Just the sport. This is the persona I would create for him as well BTW it sells. Floyd has shown us that

He's on the cover bc they think he will move units, congrats to the kid his hype machine is working

Right you are but from a marketing standpoint its flawless! My post will prove itself when he becomes the highest paid in the sport! ....If he stays undefeated.

Rios already been on it http://i48.tinypic.com/2nkjv2u.jpg But, assuming Rios-Alvarado live up to the hype, they should do a cover piece on that fight. And I hear a lot of people showing their dislike towards The Ring Magazine, can anybody tell me why? Simply cause of their double standards when it comes to dropping people out of their ranks for banned substances. For example, not too long ago I posted how they decided not to drop Chavez Jr from their ranks even tho he popped for a BANNED SUBSTANCE. The RING's rule says if a fighter is pops for any type of BANNED SUBSTANCE they will be dropped or something along those lines. However, they said they won't drop Chavez Jr cause it was not a PED. Even tho their rules says BANNED SUBSTANCE and doesn't specifically say PEDs. Then you have stuff like them changing their rules about who fights for their title. Like the whole deal with Hernandez-Cunningham, Khan-Garcia and Donaire-Nishioka. It all started with just the #1 and #2 guy were able to fight for their belt but as they went along they kept changing the rule like the #1 guy can fight the #3 and such.

Don't speak on other races/nationalities as if you know how they'd feel, that's just stupid. I know tons of black and Latinos who dislike him, either for his racist rants on twitter or because he's trying to jock Floyd. I don't know how Pinoys got thrown in there but same for them. What an ignorant post. Right you are but from a marketing standpoint its flawless! My post will prove itself when he becomes the highest paid in the sport!
