What were the ten most fantastic knockouts in boxing history? Which pugilist had the greatest jab of all time? What were the sport's most intense rivalries? Who scored the biggest upsets in the sport's annals? Which fighters have the best nicknames? These questions and many others are answered in this bold collection of ranked lists from two of boxing's most popular commentators. Each list has an introductory paragraph followed by a number of ranked entries, with each entry featuring a brief explanation of ranking plus entertaining and enlightening background information. Also included are original lists contributed exclusive to this book by more than 25 top personalities from boxing and beyond, including Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier, George Foreman, Oscar De La Hoya, Bernard Hopkins, and more.
Boxing's greatest trainer reveals all "The book is written in a highly conversational tone, and by the
end the reader will know precisely what it is like to listen to the
Bill Walsh of boxing hold court on the exotic art of the
cornerman." " H]ere's one for the fans: an as-close-up-as-you-can-get view
of boxing's biggest, baddest personalities and poundings." "The teaming of esteemed boxing trainer Angelo Dundee and Bert
Randolph Sugar, perhaps the best boxing writer around, produces a
lively and insightful look at professional boxing in the second
half of the 20th century... His fascinating portraits of Ali,
Leonard and Foreman make this a terrific read." "This book's appeal lies in Dundee's colorful and punchy
personality, as he enlivens the prose with entertaining, Yogi
Berra-like jokes, tautologies and euphemisms. It's no surprise that
Dundee helped Ali develop his famous rhymes." Angelo Dundee was named Manager of the Year by the Boxing Writers Association in 1968 and 1979. In 1994 he was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame. He continues to train boxers and has acted as ringside commentator for many televised fights. Bert Randolph Sugar is the most recognized and well-known boxing writer in history. The former editor of Ring Magazine and Boxing Illustrated and publisher of Fight Game magazine, he has written dozens of books on boxing and is a regular ESPN sports analyst.
