        Being a boxing fan is hard work.

            That is a major part of the reason why Boxing has fallen in the States they went too far away from Network TV and Free Events and put everything on Cable/Sattilite and PPV

              Well, HBO has their program once or twice a month, entitled "Fight Game w/ Jim Lampley."

              But mostly, you'd have to order a subscription to a magazine, like Ring Magazine. Not sure if there's other printed mediums out there that cover boxing.

              Does Ring Magazine even have a printed subscription base anymore? Or are they exclusively online now?

                Nope. Boxing is no longer culturally relevant.

                  We'd have to rely on smoke signals
