Ringside Boxing Show: William Dettloff, Editor of Ringside Seat, a New Boxing Mag with ‘Old-School’ Journalism

As a former senior writer who contributed to the heyday of The Ring and KO Boxing, William Dettloff sat shoulder-to-shoulder on press row with some of the greatest boxing journalists in history, the beginning of a career in which he also authored a biography of Ezzard Charles and a boxing-instruction book with Smokin’ Joe Frazier.

Dettloff has collaborated with another alumnus of The Ring, Nigel Collins, and celebrated graphic artist Michael Kronenberg to launch a new quarterly boxing magazine, Ringside Seat, which will include the work of many of the top boxing scribes of our generation.
We spoke in-depth with Dettloff about the philosophies behind the new quarterly publication (of which he serves as editor-in-chief), as well as his life and career covering “The Sweet Science.”

This wide-ranging conversation is preceded by our weekly report from British correspondent Paul McLaughlin on the eclectic boxing scene in the United Kingdom, and a breakdown of the week in boxing (including Mikey Garcia’s victory over Adrien Broner) from expert analysts Travis Hartman and John J. Raspanti.

Dennis Taylor is host of The Ringside Boxing Show, editor/publisher of www.ringsideboxingshow.com, and co-author (with John J. Raspanti) of “Intimate Warfare: The True Story of the Arturo Gatti vs. Micky Ward Boxing Trilogy,” currently on Amazon’s Bestsellers list.
