Are today's boxers better than their predecessors, or is modern
boxing a shadow of its former self? Boxing historians discuss the
socioeconomic and demographic changes that have affected the
quality, prominence and popularity of the sport over the past
century. Among the interviewees are world-renowned scholars, some
of the sport's premier trainers, and former amateur and
professional world champions. Chapters cover such topics as the
ongoing deterioration of boxers' skills, their endurance, the
decline in the number of fights and the psychological readiness of
championship-caliber boxers. The strengths and weaknesses of
today's superstars are analyzed and compared to those of such past
greats as Joe Louis, Sugar Ray Robinson, Jack Dempsey and Jake
LaMotta.
