On June 10, 1948, the eyes of the sporting world were focused on a
minor league ballpark in Newark, New Jersey-the unlikely venue of a
much-anticipated rubber match between the two men at the top of
boxing's prestigious middleweight division, Tony Zale and Rocky
Graziano. They had met in the ring twice before, each winning one
bout. In their third fight, Zale, a clever and powerful puncher,
hoped to regain his title from Graziano, a knock-out artist six
years his junior. This book tells the story of the greatest
middleweight trilogy of boxing's Golden Age, a championship battle
Newark hoped would catalyze brighter days for a city rife with
political corruption and organized crime and grappling with the
beginning of deindustrialization.
