Sad news.......Boxing Digest has gone out of buisness. Someone at BoxRec tried to renew and they were told they no longer were publishing it.

It is most likely difficult for boxing print media to stay in business due to the internet sites that are generally pretty lousy in my opinion. If you go into Barnes and Nobles you will be lucky to find one boxing magazine, but there will be three of four choices of MMA magazines.

Yeah, you are not kidding - I used to be able to pick up boxing mags @ Book-a-Million, now nothing but MMA mags.

I know there are some bright guys who like MMA but some of them don't strike me as readers. I just met a woman who's into MMA & she said from the groups she sees @ local MMA fight cards, they like to drink & fight.
