A quarter of a century ago journalist and author Ian Probert
decided never to write about boxing again. His decision was
prompted by the injuries sustained by boxer Michael Watson during
his world title fight with Chris Eubank. Now, in common with so
many fighters, Probert is making an inevitable comeback. Dangerous
sees Probert return to the scene of an obsession that has gripped
him from childhood. In the course of numerous meetings with a
number of leading figures in the fight game, including Herol
Graham, Steve Collins, Michael Watson, Nigel Benn, Ambrose Mendy,
Rod Douglas, Frank Buglioni, Kellie Maloney, Glen McCrory and Jim
McDonnell among others, Probert takes a look at how lives have
changed, developed and even unravelled during the time he has been
away from the sport. From an illuminating and honest encounter with
transgender fight manager Kellie Maloney to an emotional reunion
with Watson himself, Probert discovers just how much the sport has
changed during his absence. The end result is one of the most
fascinating and unusual books ever to have been written about
boxing.
