    Is Ring Magazine worth subscribing to?

    I rarely buy this magazine on the newstands, since i get most of my information online. Is $48 a year worth it?

    I always ask myself this question. The mag is really thin, the info is always outdated since we get it instant on the internet. The only real value for me are the covers and photos inside. The collector's value if you will. But really, I always ask, why the **** am I spending nearly 9 bucks on a mag that is half the size of SuperStreet mag and that mag is half the price of The Ring. So wtf? But to show your support to boxing and keep The Ring alive, you should contribute I guess.

      Its 48 a year, buddy,48 a year. I never knew the price till now.So I might get one,but 48 a year? If that breaks your bank since you have to make a thread and ask if its worth it then its time to find another job,buddy.

        I read so much about boxing on the internet from various sources that I stopped getting it becaue it seemed old when I got it....but there are great articles you won't find anywhere else....and some historic covers so they are nice to have....but I personally don't subscribe anymore.

          Its a great magazine. even though results and such are outdated, its always interesting what they right about each fight.

          They have some great feature articles, and they have this thing in the beggining of the magazine called "TV FIGHTS ON THE MONTH" where they grade them and stuff. I am absolutely ADDICTED to that. lol

                    I haven't bought a Ring Magazine since the late 90's, plus I wouldn't support the DLH empire.
