Golden Boy Promotions Oscar De La Hoya plans to make Ring Magazine, the acknowledged ?Bible of Boxing? an even bigger and better magazine.
Golden Boy vice president Eric Gomez, in an overseas telephone conversation with Viva Sports/Manila Standard Today said ? the reason Oscar (De La Hoya) got involved and bought it is because he wants to add to it, he wants to make it a better magazine.?
Gomez who is a longtime friend of De La Hoya said that none of the top executives of Golden Boy including CEO Richard Schaefer, De La Hoya and himself are ?not going to get involved with the Ring editorially. We are just going to better it. We are not going to get involved at all with the editorial or with any of the writers. They are going to do what they are doing. We are not going to alter it in anyway, shape or form. It will remain the way it is.?
At the same time Gomez said that respected editor-in-chief Nigel Collins is ?a very nice person. Very knowledgeable . He is a straight-shooter.?
With the greater interest of Golden Boy Promotions in the Philippines and their tie-up with the famed ALA Gym of renowned boxing patron Tony Aldeguer and the resurgence of boxing in Australia and South Korea as well as the growth of the sport in Japan, Thailand and Indonesia, Gomez indicated that coverage of Asian boxing is likely to be increased in the future.
