"Ring" Magazine "Should have been Holm not Rousey"
bjpenndotcom - December 6, 2015
When Ronda Rousey graced the cover of Ring Magazine last month, the boxing community went into an uproar about the cover. Many critics surfaced responding to Ring’s choice of cover, wondering why the MMA mega star was on the popular magazine. One of the more vocal critics was Floyd “Money” Mayweather who took to verbal jabs at owner Oscar De La Hoya for the cover. Boxing promoter Lou DiBella was the latest to get his jabs in Saturday night following an event headlined by Daniel Jacobs and Peter Quillin at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. DiBella bashed the magazine, not only for putting Rousey on the cover, but for not putting a legitimate women’s boxing champion with 16 title defenses and 3 of those were in different weight classes. CNG’s Joseph Stazewski gets the quotes: “If I was Ring Magazine, maybe I would have put Holly Holm on the cover before she won,” DiBella said at the post-fight press conference, continuing, “And talked about her story and maybe why she had a chance and what she accomplished in boxing that they didn’t pay attention to for her whole career.”
