It's been 20 years since the last time.

That's beautiful, Mr. Pain.
Almost brought a tear to my eye.

Much appreciated from this Boxing fan.

I think there'll be another Time Magazine cover, Boxing's about due.

Im shocked, DLH nor Mayweather were on the cover... I think it should at some point again.

I believe a recent magazine had ALi on the cover celebrating his career. I believe i even did a write up in the "Fistic photo thread"

Does anyone under age 65 read Time magazine anymore?

Mr. Larusso · 07-15-2008, 12:45 PM

Eventually yes.

I doubt it unless there's a big tragedy that happens in a title fight ala mancini vs duk koo kim.

Yes, but that's only when I'm in the waiting room of the doctor's office, at the dentist or scenarios like that.

Also, for any fans of the historical side of the sport, TIME gave some pretty decent coverage to the sport starting from when they first started the magazine back in the 1920's, and would be a decent (and free) online source to fill the time frame from then to the 1950's when Sports Illustrated came into being.

Not the best of primary sources to research during that time frame, obviously, but still a little something to take a peak at during those years if you don't have any other online newspapers available to you.
