I mentioned it on another thread. I used to love that mag. You used to get it in the UK when it was like 3 months out of date but it was still a great read.
The issue on this page with Larry Holmes on the front is the first issue I ever purchased. It looks so old now

KO Magazine was one of the best ever boxing mags produced. I am disappointed that it went one edition per-month, to one every three months. Is KO still going?
It doesn't go to my local newsagent anymore, and I haven't seen it in stores like WH Smith etc. It's a shame if the magazine is no longer in production.
I have many year-sets of KO, mainly the late 1980's.

i think it can be got through RING, the bcak issues, i think it got incorporated into RING but i could be wrong

Brilliant.
Think I've still got my old copies somewhere, either that or I left them in the loft when I moved last year.
