      i dont think de la hoya is gonna have a negative impact on the magazine itself. he is gona leave it alone im sure, he jus bought it for the money associated with it. it will still be a good mag...

        well maybe. it seems bad, but i guess more attention will be paid 2 make sure nothing fishy goes on.

        the ring's sold its ratings to don king before, so i didn't think they'd do something like this that looks so bad.

          Everyone always assumes the worst. Jesus. Let ONE issue come out, and see if you notice ANYTHING different, first. I'm not saying it's good or bad, technically, I think it could be good.. But.. let's just wait and see.

            I thought that this was a bad idea at first, but if it can help to get rid of all the alphabet organizations and their dirty politics, then I'm all for it.

              On the bright side I hope GBP promotes the RING belt as the premiere belt of all belts.
