Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox magazine Box y Lucha is a Spanish language magazine and website. It is the oldest lucha libre magazine still in existence and one of the first ones to be published.[1] It also covers boxing and other martial arts.

History

The magazine began publication in 1954 in Mexico City under the name Lucha Libre,[2] later renamed Lucha Libre y Box, and finally to Box y Lucha. It became the best established wrestling magazine in Mexico until the 2000s when it was taken over by Súper Luchas.[3] In 1955 the magazine became the first publication to cover the subject of wrestling masks.[4] After the 1990s the magazine and its rival Súper Luchas were the only two Mexican wrestling magazines to survive after the industry, in general, went down. Box y Lucha was known to be more text-based than Súper Luchas and featured less foreign wrestlers.[1] The magazine remained widely read by 1995, which is often regarded as the worst year in professional wrestling history.[5]
