Editing Ring En Español

{{short description|Spanish language boxing magazine}}
'''The Ring En Español''' is a Spanish version of [[boxing]] publication ''[[The Ring (magazine)|The Ring]]'' magazine. ''Ring En Español'' was originally published from 1977 to 1985. Originally published from [[Caracas]] and later from [[Panama]], it moved in 1981 to [[Miami]], to Editorial America (currently owned by [[Televisa]]), the same editorial house that oversaw the production of ''[[Cosmopolitan (magazine)|Cosmopolitan]]''s Spanish version.

Although ''Ring En Español'' covered every boxing event worldwide, it concentrated more than anything else on [[Hispanic]] [[boxing|boxer]]s, helping boxers like [[Wilfred Benítez]], [[Wilfredo Gómez]], [[Julio César Chávez]], [[Eusebio Pedroza]], [[Roberto Durán]], [[Santos Laciar]], [[Antonio Cervantes]], [[Pipino Cuevas]], [[Ossie Ocasio]], [[Lupe Pintor]], [[Rafael Limón|Rafael "Bazooka" Limón]], [[Edwin Rosario]], [[Héctor Camacho]], [[Salvador Sanchez]], [[Hilario Zapata]] and many others become international household names.

The unstable Latin American economy combined with rising magazine production costs and other factors caused ''The Ring En Español'' to come off the [[newsstands]] after the October 1985 edition. Lupe Pintor was featured on the magazine's last cover, having won the [[World Boxing Council|WBC]] Super Bantamweight championship of the world by defeating [[Juan Meza]] the previous August in [[Mexico City, Mexico]].

The ''Ring en Español'''s top competitor was ''[[Guantes]]''.

Starting in June 2019, The Ring magazine started publishing a Spanish version of the magazine, only in digital format.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://nyfights.com/worldwide/ring-en-espanol-is-back/|title = RING en Espanol is Back in the Fight|date = 2 May 2019}}</ref>
