Customer Reviews

Brilliant, insightful and a unique perspective on Boxing

This book is compelling. Simply fascinating. Here we are offered insight into the legendary corner man of boxing and their takes on their fighters and their opponents. The approaches and styles are as different as boxers themselves. These corner men were often as fascinating as the fighters themselves. Some were vivid, colorful and tailored their approaches. Others were scientific and analytical. You learn much about the lives, the details and the business of boxing. What it takes to develop and inspire fighters to the next level. This one is a must for any serious boxing fan. All the great trainers are represented here and it's interesting how their views of certain fighters and fights contrast.

MUST HAVE boxing book
